Axe-Master
I loaded the same amp models into my ax8 and III, used an aby box, and it was pretty much as simple as select a 100watt plexi and just hit an A chord with various levels of picking on bothz. Ax8 was put into the box and listed for sale about 5 minutes after that.
Make no mistake the ax8 sounded great, but flipping back and forth there was no differences. The ax8 sounded like a great model of the amp and the III sounded like the best hand tweaked plexi I’ve ever played.
It’s like playing an American standard Strat and playing a custom shop Strat where every part is selected to your preference. Both are good, both sound similar, but the custom shop is just going to feel “right”(er)
