    You've gotta love the synth patches! - Fun vid

    This is the straight up factory synth patch #247 from the XL+ ... but I did change the reverb to large room. You've got to be on the ball for tracking, but crikey, it's fun! The backing track is credited in the vid description.
  2. Burgs

    Yep. I'm Hooked.

    Certainly delivered the solid tone for this little improv over a jazzy groove track. Ch 3B with with multidelay and a couple of the Bulb Zilla Green M 121 cabs. There's some 808 with the gain backed off and level almost dimed that I kick in from time to time as well. Here's the patch if you'd...

    Acoustic patch - Ernie Ball Game Changer-based... other stuff... Video.

    I scored one of these relatively rare 'The Game Changer' birds today. The first thing I put through the ringer was its piezo qualities. Crikey, they are SO good. So, regardless of the other zillion cool things about these guitars (basically cyber Axis), I immediately set about writing an...

    Loving the Obot The Robot cabs! Vid.

    Yep, great sounding cabs. Yesterday I had to cut a demo for Deep Trip (Brazilian pedal company) so I used the XL+ and I'm doing more and more often instead of real amps. The XL+ sounds better and no-one's complaining. Here I've used the 4x12 GB B (top right speaker?) with a JM45 in front of it...

    Jazzmaster/JTM45/Pi Fuzz. Vid and preset.

    John Palir built for me a custom Jazzmaster that we call the Blue Note. Killer guitar. Teamed with Jason Hobert's great 1961 Jazzmaster patch and compressor, chorus and delay blocks, I was off! Original preset. http://axechange.fractalaudio.com/detail.php?preset=3456 I'll upload my revised...

    Gilmour and Brian May tones on the Ax8 - adapted from Burgs [video]

    I am a big fan of @Burgs . The playing is always smooth, his sounds are killer, and he often includes the patch. Here I tried his recent Gilmour patch (http://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/in-for-a-quick-dg-video-and-preset.119018/) Recently, my cover band got a request to play 'Don't stop...

    In for a quick DG. Video and preset.

    Fate caused me to write myself a Dave Gilmour preset today. It's a pretty stripped back affair but it got the desired results for me, at least with this guitar. See what you think and tweak to suit. This preset: http://axechange.fractalaudio.com/detail.php?preset=4558 The Gretsch-based preset...

    Ernie Ball Cutlass with preset to suit. Video demo and download.

    I've just joined the ranks of the Ernie Ball'ers, so you'll be seeing a lot more of their guitars in my vids and on stage. Pretty chuffed I am about it, too. First off the rank is a Cutlass. Lovely guitar. Solid, vintage sounds, modern appointments, bulletproof and feels like a comfy armchair...

    Lunar Eclipse (#335) & Ibanez RG852 - video

    This seems to have struck a chord out there. I think I have more in common with the dramatic composers than any guitar player. Oh well, at least the Axe lets me indulge. Thanks to whomever wrote this preset. It goes well with an 8-string.

    Chapman Guitars demos - Preset

    Yesterday I cut a couple of demos for Chapman Guitars. Here are the videos and the preset that features a SmallBox (for dirt) and JTM (clean) I wrote and used. I hope you can have some fun with it. The videos The preset http://axechange.fractalaudio.com/detail.php?preset=4472

    Dan Danzi - Thanks!

    I've been enlisted to do a Fractal Audio clinic at the forthcoming Melbourne Guitar Show in a week's time with the AX8. I'm looking forward to it. I thought I'd try and wow some of the crew with some EVH stuff courtesy of Dan's outstanding presets. I'll demo the sound and then deconstruct the...

    HSS Deluxe Strat + ODS (Clean and mean) - Video - Preset

    A double feature video with my 2011 Deluxe Strat and an ODS pair based on Yek's original ODS amp template. Made largely for my own use so I can refer to it after I tear these godawful original pickups out of this guitar. Preset: http://axechange.fractalaudio.com/detail.php?preset=4440...

    Normally I would use a Vibrolux Reverb. But this time...

    ... But this time, I built something so close (and I think better sounding), based yet again on the work of the FAS Tremolux model and Yek's preset, that I'm wondering whether anyone will be able to tell the difference, despite my disclosure in the video's description block. We shall see. Check it.

    Have a little whiskey, turn up the HIWATT's ... Rock! ......*hic*

    I don't condone whiskey drinking at all, of course. Although I am partial to a wee dram. Four guitars, influenced attitudes, FAS 3.03 Hipower's and a Tube Driver. It was heaven to me, anyhow. :D Preset: http://axechange.fractalaudio.com/detail.php?preset=4371 Embarrassing video:

    HiPower and Esquire = Rock! (Thanks, Yek!)

    Yesterday saw me making a demo for a local builder's Esquire (I liked the guitar so much I bought it). I thought I may as well defer to one of Yek's HIWATT presets as a starting block, which I did. I extended it with some slight tweaks to suit the guitar and added delay, compression, reverb and...

    An AX8 101 vid: Put together a Marshall rig in minutes - video

    I've already posted this in the Axe-FX II Recordings forum but it is probably better suited to being here. This vid takes you through the basic building stages for putting together a classic rock rig based around a 50W Marshall, quad, some effects and a couple of Scenes. Rock on and have a...

    An AX8 101 vid for classic rock enthusiasts thinking of diving in.

    Build your own Marshall rig in minutes. That's pretty much the gist of this video. Hopefully it makes the process of preset building look attractive and easy enough to chin scratching fence sitters to convince them to have a go. I for one say they won't be sorry!

    Lollar Jag pickups | Vibro-King | Mastery: One for the offset freaks

    As the title says, folks. A friend from Australia sold me this quite amazing Jag he put together so I thought I may as well demo it and the Lollars it features. The Vibro-King model and 3x10 cab proved to be the best men for the job. Here's my preset if you'd like to give it a shot -...

    Crystal Reverbs and the Ghost Fleet Blues

    A new Ibanez 8-string rolled in yesterday. It's a gorgeous thing and plays itself, it's so darned comfortable. Here's my first excursion with it, fluffs and all, using its not inconsiderable clean tones with the mighty preset #134: Crystal Reverbs, unmodded.

    Morgan AC20 with Treble Boost in front - Brian May Guitars demo (video)

    I had to demo a BMG Special for my channel yesterday. That meant I needed to come up with a reasonable patch that paid homage to the referred and revered tones of Dr Brian Harold May. I remember reading that the Morgan AC20 Deluxe was pretty good with a Treble Booster in front of it and it is...

    Triptik suite for Charvel or higher output axes (video demo)

    Charvel PM San Dimas to Dual Cleans, SLP's, AC-15

    I'm using Youtube as a sounding board for pickup choice for this cool little Charvel I scored recently. But in doing so I was able to give a reasonable demo of all the presets mentioned above.

    Q2 Double Verb with Smitty and Lollar Gold Foils

    Burg's Vibro-Lux suite ... and a custom Strat! Oh, and the preset. :D

    I rant and vent on Facebook about probably never being able to afford a (decent) guitar that was built in the same year I was - 1963. I hook up with a guy who turns out to be a master luthier living in Queensland (sunny Australia) and he and I team up for a build. We call our guitar the BK63...

    Silverface Twin and Muff vid. Noise alert.

    Late at night, half cut, he decides it would be a good idea to jam his Normandy Alumicaster into a Muff and Silverface Twin (Q1.02) to see what transpires. Stupidly, following his indulgent sonic rant, he turns off the cameras, Pro Tools and Axe-FX II without saving the preset. Oops. Oh well...next.
