    Axe FX II Recovery Kit?

    The eprom comes with a VERY EXACT info what you have to do.But you have to open Axe-FX.And the Eprom usually doesnt carry the latest firmware.But once you have the kit you can put latest FW on. Still rare case that even a power down and or spark touches the eprom my 5 cents Roland
