I don't get enough time to play guitar through my Axe, but have had enough playing time to be sure that it really can reproduce the amps it models very effectively. However, I keep defaulting back to 2 or 3 models for my regular tones and am not really exploring the Axe's full potential.
So, as a learning process I have cleared all presets to blank and I'm going to set up a preset with each of the amps and recommended cab (as per Wiki) one at a time, in turn, to learn more about the sounds each model has to offer.
First up is Amp 1: the Fender Champ, I spend a very satisfying couple of hours with it yesterday, played through my active CLR, getting very close to the Derek & Dominos tone, and used X/Y, X being set for my Strat (single coils) and Y set with a reduced input trim to 0.5 to simulate a lower gain input for my humbucker guitars (Gibson SG & PRS CU22).
This is going to be a long but hopefully rewarding journey...
Once that's complete, I plan to go through all of the effects one at a time in turn and explore those fully!
Don't wait up...I may be some time...
