    Game changer for dialing presets!

    Now I'm interested. Do you know of any how-to for this? Room correction is totally new for me, so it would be great if I could start out with a cheap mic, cheap (/free?) software and use the IR loader of the Axe.

    Unique guitars

    It's pretty versatile and leans into the more classic direction due to the pickups. It has a long sustain and the tuning stability is very good. I would need to try it right next to my other guitars to make a fair comparison, it has been at my mother's house for many years now (it's the only...

    Hi Guigh, you can read which amps I used in the first post. I am very happy with the result and don't think it would change all that much if Cliff would model a real Major for example. As you probably know a lot of the sound is in the cabs and while there are not many stock IRs with G12T75...

    Red Hot Chili Peppers / John Frusciante recreation

    Since we don't have the DS-2 in the Axe, but Frusciante uses it quite often I borrowed a real one and tried to match the Axe-DS-1 as close as possible (which ended up with quite heavy EQing, and it might be possible to get this closer with parametric EQs, but I wanted to use just one block).

    I have 4 guitars with Sperzels at the moment and had a lot more in the past. The only "problem" with the tuners is, that they have this first brief moment when you turn them and they don't do anything. It's very little, though, so I got used to it pretty fast.
