Hey guys,
I did my first gig last night with my AX8. And it worked great! I got compliments from the sound guy and quite a few other people. Our sound guy, who is also a guitarist, admitted he was skeptical at first but he said that pedal is friggin awesome sounding.
We in-ear monitor, so it didn't really feel any different than using an amp, although I was missing a little of the low-end thump that comes from standing in front of a 4x12 cab. I ran straight to FOH so, I need to tweak a few levels and do some minor eq'ing as I experienced a little feedback on the higher gain sounds. Overall, I was really pleased with the sound and performance of the AX8. I have to admit, walking into a gig and being completely set up in less than 5 minutes, without breaking my back, and still, have it sound awesome is kinda like "having it all".
I know, most of you probably will be like, duh, but I had to tell someone that might appreciate it. I tried telling my wife this, but she didn't really care... lol. Her only response was, "Great, does that mean you don't need your amp anymore and you can sell it?" :-/
