Hi!
I'm a big fan of Toto. I already got the MusicMan Luke and spent some evenings to get Steve Lukather's solo sound:
at 4:30

I know he uses the CAE 3, so I used it, too. I already got quite close to it, but something's still missing. His tone sounds full, a bit fuzzy or dirty (I'm German, so I'm not so good in describing sounds), but mine sounds rather thin.
So, does anyone know, how I can get his tone with the AxeFX?
Luke's website says that he uses the CAE3 (without a fuzz-effect/Bass and Treble pushed, middle turned out a bit) with 3 cabs. One without any effects and the other ones with effects. So I tried it with two CAE 3 + CAB in parallel. I also experimented with an EQ behind it. When I lowered the higher frequencies (above 2k), it helped me to get closer, but there's no way to get such a full sound than Luke's just by adjusting the tone knobs or the EQ.
Thanks!
Yours,
Johannes
