Physically Dropping the Axe-FX II and its Consequences

Hey bigsby,

If you're still worried, Plug into the unit, play a chord, and while the chord is ringing, tap the unit in different spots. If something has come adrift, or a solder joint has gone dodgy, you'll probably get some artefacts from you tapping it.
... and do your best to have fun when there are no artefacts!

I've heard of far worse happenings after which the Axe-Fx II "keeps on ticking."
I'd just give a close listen and make sure the fan is still spinning.
In Mark I and Mark II units, a heavy blow can sometimes erase presets in the battery-powered memory.
For this reason, it's always smart to perform a backup to the onboard flash before the unit will travel.
