Practice Chair

I’ve searched the archives for a recommendation on a dual purpose chair for home office/guitar. Secret Lab looks awesome but just wanted to see if anyone had any other recommendations?

Bought Joe Bonamassa Tix

Bought Bonamassa tickets tonight and played the ZZ Top cover of “Just Got Paid” with the theramin. My better half was seriously unimpressed. May have to give her ticket to a buddy.

Blues Lovers...

I spent the whole morning trying to mock Freddie. Any other Freddie lovers out there? I suck as compared to him btw but damn it was fun with this new firmware.

Mountain Bikers?

Beginning of the season (for me) and the rear hub is done on my Stache7. Hoping COVID doesn't delay replacement but I'm not confident!

NGD (Tomorrow)

Since I was a kid, I've always wanted a Les Paul Custom Goldtop. Placed my order Saturday and it's being delivered tomorrow. Like a kid at Christmas right now.

Song to damage your hearing

I'm home alone, which doesn't happen often, and have "The Sentinel" absolutely cranked in my office. May be fun to see what songs are your "go to" songs for shaking the foundation of your house. Right now, Rob Halford is screaming "Unmoved by this victory and the seeds of death he's sown" and...

I Might Be An Idiot...

Okay, don't answer that... But, I've searched high and low, watched the video and still can't figure it out. I have a Boss FV-500L for volume control. I was under the impression that it would slowly raise and lower the volume. I have it connected to the "Expression Pedal 1" input. Moving...

My Review

Hello All, Well, I've had the Axe II long enough to form my opinion on it and...well...I LOVE IT! It's been several months since I've had my Ultra but I can already say how much easier it is to dial in. Most everyone has said this so it feels a bit redundant but I was very pleasantly...

My Journey For Tone - Warning! Long Post!

I'm going to try to keep this as straight and to the point as I can but everyone tells me I struggle with that. LOL! I was a very happy Ultra owner years ago and then the Axe II was announced. I work in the technology industry so I understand the product refresh cycles. It's a healthy...

Talk Me Off The Ledge!

I made the mistake of going to my local Focal dealer the other day and listened to the Solo 6be's. They're absolutely stunning speakers. My current setup at home is (soon to be) Axe FX II through two QSC K12's. I have no intention of ever playing outside my home. I picked up the guitar a few...

Metropolous JTM45

Here's an amp I'm having trouble laying off of while I wait for my Axe II coupon! I really wish I didn't see this. If I knew I could resell it for an equivalent amount, I would buy it in a second. I signed the wait list on 6/20 at around 7pm so I'm sure I've got a little while to wait...

DAW Question

Do the popular DAW tools (Pro Tools, etc.) have a guitar canceling feature? Basically what I'd like to do is take an MP3, cancel out the lead or rhythm and record myself playing that part. I want to use the tones that the Axe provides me though. Everything I can find online has other amp...

Do I Have The Worst Setup...

...now that I've sold my Ultra and am awaiting the II? Line 6 JM4 looper direct in to my QSC K12's! I mean, don't get me wrong, the JM4 is a really cool looper and practice device but I sold my Mesa Mark IV and Lonestar to buy the Ultra and now I've sold the Ultra to help fund the Axe II. I...

Octave Effect

Okay, I'm struggling with how to do this and I'm not sure how difficult it is. I really like the song "Sound Of Madness" by Shinedown. I know Zach Myers said they had to work to get the octave effect set accordingly. That one vexed me for awhile as he makes it look like he's hitting the note...

Sustain With Vibrato

Hello all, Only my third post here in the forum. I can't thank you all enough for the help thus far. I've learned so much just from the Wiki and searching through other people's posts here. One challenge I still seem to have. There's no problem at all with sustain playing chords and...

Simple, Basic Setup

I apologize in advance but I've never been more confused in my life...and I work for a Fortune 500 technology company! I've ordered the Axe FX Ultra and one QSC K12. All I need to know is which cable to buy to connect the two. I've read thread after thread until I'm blue in the face and I...
