I’ve been a huge Rush fan for over 30 years now. Since buying the Axe FX III I’ve been trying to get some of my favorite tones from Alex Lifeson. And we all know Alex is a gear nut! I’ve been able to dial in the Grace Under Pressure tones which have been fun to jam with. But I would love to see if anyone else has other presets, or suggestions on presets, they could share.
I’m looking for the clean jangly tone from the verses of the song Show Don’t Tell. I know he uses piezo pickups, so is that the secret to that tone? What could mimic that tone in a Fractal and switch to his distorted tone as well? Also, on the DVD Show of Hands, Alex’s sound is remarkable. Anyone have a preset on his clean and distorted tones they could share? Thank you in advance for your feedback and help. Cheers!
