    Channel switching a 6505+

    Hello folks. I am diving into new territory (bought a tube amp) and want to use my axefx 3 in 4CM with a peavy 6505+ head. I did search for other threads but I didn't see anything conclusive (I may have missed something) I am trying to figure out the best way to be able to switch patches...

    Issues with the screen on Axe Fx 2

    I have this issue also. I ended up buying a new screen and new ribbon cable after reseating the LCD cables were not improving the display. I then reseated what I believe is a power connector, its a white connecter on the mainboard. This resolved the issue.

    Buying used Axe FX II as a Beginner, good idea?

    if you can, then do it. a. I found I made a lot of progress playing wise simply because the play feel was so much better than the line 6 stuff i used to playing on. No dig on line 6.. still respect them but the tactile feel and tones from the axefx really helped me to refine some picking...

    Rick graham lead tone

    Pretty sure I saw a video with him talking about the axe and he didn't even use the editor. IIRC, he just tweaked a factory preset a bit and voila... so ya, I think he coaxes that tone out of pretty much anything he puts his hands on.
