I've had a problem with the USB output jack breaking on my AX8, which I hope will be fixed at some point this week. Whilst looking on YT for some inspirational musical stuff I watched a few Axe FX2 videos. Complete with features lacking from the AX8, such as tone matching and I believe dual amps.
So my question to all you expert wonderful Fractal folk is, will an Axe2 still cut it today?
I'm not in the best financial position today so figure a s/h FX2 would be more attainable than the much more desired FX3 (or even the FM9).
Just as a bit of side note. In the UK we get our eyes ripped out on the pricing of a lot of goods. I understand that we are charged heavily on taxes but to show how lucky you US based folks are an Axe Fx3 in the US is $2400 which converts to about £1886 English pounds. An Axe Fx3 here in the UK is £2539 which works out at about $3231.
Hence my reasons for a good s/h FX2. I should be able to pick one up for somewhere about £1K (which is still an eye watering $1300).
I wish that I lived stateside. I would save a bit more cash up and buy an Fx3. Job done.
(This is not a dig at any company's pricing, it is more to show how expensive it is to buy things here in good ol' blighty!)
