Anyone buy their first 'real' amp inspired by their AXE?

Yep, I bought Friedman BE100 after fall in love with amp on FX2

I have the real-world version of some of the amps in the Axe-FX and I hardly ever play them. They're just too loud to use without attenuation, and I like the modeled sound of the Axe better than the attenuated sound of the real amp.

Fractal has made me want a Hook but the modeling is so good it's hard to justify.

I went the other way. Sold all my Tube Amps (nothing collectible or heirloomish) after getting the Axe and Kemper (since sold the Kemper too).

This!
I sold my Tube Amp (Friedman BE100 Deluxe) because it's just to loud and to heavy to carry it around together with it's 4x12 for rehearsals etc.
The Axe Fx 3 does it all!

Unless coupled with frfr, wouldn't you get a completely different sound anyway?

That's true but... it was worth it

Really, they're about €4000 here in Europe minus the cab

I know, it always comes down to money. But I'm just answering the topic. Yes, in 2015 I bought a BE100 and now I have a BE100 deluxe. So with Fractal, the best of both worlds.
