Oh my!!
That is exactly what I said (actually a bit more colorful) - when I first plugged into mine!
Oh my!!
Sounds like right up my alley. I like to dial in my core tones and forget. But those core tones need to kick ass, and I like my backline to thump and kick me in the ass. hehe. The FRFR has been great, but I have been struggling with it as of late. My only concern with changing away from FRFR will be whether I will be delivering a good tone to the PA without using cab sims. I guess micing the NL12 is an option...no?

I think because the NL12 has been designed to work specifically with the Axe II has a lot to do with this combo sounding so good. I did mention earlier that I was trying to get my head around this before I bought the NL12. After hearing it for myself the best way for me to describe it is that the NL12 sounds like a studio recorded guitar tone coming out of the speaker crossed with a guitar cab in the room with no "Beaming". Forget what you know about guitar cabs, it doesn't apply and don't over think it because it doesn't make sense, how can such a small cab sound so good? Anyway I'm still a noob with the NL12 I still need to get some gig time up on it , but first impressions have been very impressive. Oh I have failed to mention how it makes the strings feel under your fingers. The response and feel is outstanding, where the GB cab is a little loose and lazy the NL12 is clean and cutting and has a much better feel.
Thanks for the response.... yeah, I kind of have a feeling this is working so well simply because it's getting it's feed from a modeling device, and it was designed for this specifically....
From the NL12 manual.I see these are listed as 60 watts. How does it hold up to the GT800 FX? Are you able to crank it up without fear of blowing the NL12?
Just picked up this gal yesterday - Gibson CS336.
Man does she sound good through the NL12s
Do you lose any low end by having the NL12's off the floor?
LVC - I think it's time for a nice video demo of your new Gibson with those NL's and some sweet clean tones!!!
I'm not using IRs' through my NL12, haven't even tried them. I send a signal out via the loop before the cab block. This cab is kicking serious but!Are you guys using these cabs with or without cab IRs? Does it still sound good using the presets you've designed with cab IRs, or do you have to start all over and design all new presets without IRs if you use the NL12s?
