Didn't pay as much attention to the sustain, but for me preset 13 USA Lead was one of the more awesome ones that got way better in the last firmwares. Less so today...
In fact, after the honeymoon period, I'm fairly disappointed with how most stock presets are sounding. Hopefully it's just the added bass and highs that have destabilized the sweet point of the spectrum for what I use personally. Hardly anything gives me a kick anymore, lots of magic gone (yes, I need fresh strings too; you need those every day with an Axe
).
But also lots of magic added of course. So I too wish the magic of 6 & 7 were combined.
Anyway, the problems only motivate me to learn tweaking, so not dissing fw7.
But when it's easier, it sure is easier...
I try not to whine, cause I don't use run of the mill pickups and have a lot to learn. Shortest route may be the Speaker tab...
Most presets also seem way too saturated for me. I have to use Input Trim of guitar volume for a lot of them to sound much better.
