In preparation for upcoming shows, I've been making some adjustments to my AxeFX III. The band got together last night for a tech rehearsal, and my bandmates repeatedly complimented my guitar tone. The only changes I made since the previous shows were pretty minor - mostly tuning the gain structure in the amps.
These are people who have heard me play for YEARS, and they spontaneously commented on how great the guitar sounds in the rehearsal room. Nothing secret going on here... Stratocaster + AxeFX + XiTone powered speaker. This is an exciting time to be a guitarist, when we have the ability to create fully realized studio tones at every gig.
I'll say it again: the AxeFX has improved my playing. Over the past five years I have refined my playing technique to take advantage of the dynamic response of the amps and cabinets in the AxeFX.
