Hello,
You know how you can put a Germanium Fuzz first in your pedals chain, and it sort of interacts with your pickups so that you get fuzz when your volume is at 10, but when you roll the volume knob back, it gives you that Jimi Hendrix clean thing? (Let's presume for the sake of argument you're playing a Strat or something similar, not EMGs or whatever.)
(For those unfamiliar, it's discussed here...
...and here...
)
I understand how to get a normal Fuzz-sh sound with the Axe FX; but, is it possible to do the same Hendrix-y clean tone? I've had folks say that this is impossible because "pickup interaction, no, you shouldn't have a buffer 'cause it won't work right."
NOTE: Of course I could stick an actual, physical, Germanium Fuzz Face physical pedal in front of the Axe.
But that's obvious; I wouldn't bother asking a question on the forum about that.
I'm asking: How would this be done in the Axe III? (Or simulated, or approximated.) Would the result even sound close?
Thanks!
