I have had my AXE FX MkII Turbo for a few months now. I have worked on sounds and FC-12 programming at least 3 afternoons per week for 2 hrs at a time. The last 2 weeks coming into Christmas I left the Marshall at home. I can't believe how good this thing is. I have been a 100W Head and Quad guy since 1992. I get all distortion etc from my 3Ch 30th Anniversary head. The only pedal was a TC Electronics Tripple Delay. Amazing Rock/Blues/Country and Pop sounds as you would expect. I didn't think that I could ever play a gig without an amp. I was proven wrong in a big way.
First I chose a Preset with a scene that I liked. I changed and tweaked all of the scenes to be exactly how I like them. High pass and Low pass on the sounds. I run IEM's when I play, our PA is awesome but I still need a wedge so I get some feedback through the PUPs. After every gig I have just tweaked a few things to make things better and this weekend I will take my laptop so I can have AXE edit open and make some fine tweaks in the breaks. The sound Guy loves it. I love it. The punters love it.
The singer and other guitarist ditched his Fender Twin and Boss pedal and bought a Fender Tonemaster pedal. It is a better sound than his Boss pedal but doesnt have the flexibility of the AXE FX.
