    Love the feel of the FM3 and I am learning to get by with fewer switches. However I am thinking I will keep my AX8 as well for those gigs where I want a more traditional pedal board layout. This is typically when it is not clear what tones I will need but want to quickly access a couple of...

    Axe-Fx III pricing - What is going on?

    Agree with all points and I do get it. However, in my highly biased opinion, the Axe FX III is in such a different league that it should not be competing on price! Helix Rack $1499, Kemper non-powered rack $1799, Axe FX III $2499 makes sense to me!
