    AFIII Allan Holdsworth "Fred"

    Here's a take on Allan Holdsworth's "Fred". I by no chance make any claims to play anywhere near close Allan. He was unmatched! But what a fun tune! Marchione 59 Burst guitar. Using the FET Boost on the drive channel, into ODS Clean, with cabs Legacy 106 and 167 blended, panned center.

    AFIII Some Herbie Hancock fusion with Axe FX III

    Here's some jammin' over the Herbie Hancock tune "Actual Proof". Backing track by Simon Peter King, who is a beast! Using the FET Boost into the ODS-100 Clean. Cabs are a blend of Legacy 106 and Legacy 167.

    Axe fx III vs Axe fx II XL+ discussion

    Do it. You won't regret it. Sure, the Axe FX II still sounds fantastic, but there's way too much new stuff at this point, it's pretty much a completely different unit. You will never look back.

    Thanks man! I know rickenbackers aren't really known guitars to solo on. They do the Tom Petty and Beatles thing so well, but they're actually great sounding guitars for leads too!

    AFIII Marchione 59 Burst & Axe FX III

    I've had the chance to play three. I had two on loan for about 7 months... his 335-style, and his Les Paul-style... and now this one I have on loan is another 335-style (59 burst is the actual model name). All I can say is, it feels like every inch of this instrument was made with intention...

    Cabs - hi & low cuts?

    Hey Lee. In my opinion/experience, the "body" of the electric guitar sound is more in the 100hz-250hz range. I have two theories for your situation. One could be that regardless of the low-cut at 80hz you did, maybe the factory presets had IR's that had a bigger bump in that 100hz-250hz and it...

    No sound/audio when making preset

    As everyone mentioned, make sure the right output is routed, beyond that, some people will upload presets with assigned expression pedals (i.e. volume) and if you don't have one, it may show as "off" depending on how they assigned it, so just "shunt" the volume block.

    Kravitz Again solo tone

    I'm not sure I hear the bloom you mention. Always loved that solo though. Sounds like a neck pick up into a bright gain sound.

    Fractal Audio X-Load & Suhr Reactive Load Comparison

    Well, I'll be honest, I use the LB-2 more because I don't have to plug it to power. As long as you don't use XLR out, you don't need power. For some reason, the RedSeven is noisier, and I know it's a power thing. Also, I've spent so much bread on IR's that I like, that I'm okay with using...

    I really think we’ve achieved it all soundwise with the Axe FX III. If/when there is an Axe FX IV, Im assuming a lot of the upgrades are going to be more technological (i.e. bluetooth, wi-fi, etc). I couldnt imagine a scenario where we would get a “more real plexi”. Im still on MKI

    AFIII Firefly FFTL Telecaster with Axe FX III

    It's so funny, that zexcoil is a bridge pickup I had in another guitar. The middle pickup I had in mind for this strat didn't work after I soldered it on, so I put the zexcoil, and having a bridge pickup in the middle is a really cool sound. Super spanky and snappy.

    How do you all fatten a Plexi patch

If not, add more proximity in the Cab Block.. if that gets to tubby, then the output EQ of the amp, just gently boost the 200hz-ish area. Try the approach of removing and turning up...

    Drive channel, clean channel+drive pedal, crunch channel+drive, etc?

    For me, depends on the “openness” I want. I use pedals to push a semi cranked amp into more compressed drive, or to shape the EQ of the amp drive differently. Or pedals into a clean amp to shape the tone differently. For dirty rhythm sounds, Ive always been satisfied with just amp drive.
