Greetings, bassists!
With several prominent bass players now using the Axe-FxII, we are embarking on a quest to assemble a collection of bass presets, with the ultimate goal of offering one full bank of 128 for download.
These presets would not only serve the conventional bass-playing community, but variants and extended range instruments such as 8/12 string basses and the Chapman Stick. Users of these instruments frequently use both guitar and bass amps simultaneously; an application perfectly suited to the Axe-FXII. Many 4/5/6 stringers also use similar configurations.
If you have presets you’d like to be included in this first “official" bank, please submit them to Axe-Change and post a link to them in this thread. All submissions will be evaluated and considered for use.
We will also be developing presets through our conventional methods, and possibly with the assistance and cooperation of noted artists.
All presets will be suitable for direct recording.
For live use, our existing cadre of guitarists FRFR amps and cabinets may not always be sufficient for bass. There are two systems likely preferred by bassists using an Axe-FXII:
All suggestions are welcome! :encouragement:

For live use, our existing cadre of guitarists FRFR amps and cabinets may not always be sufficient for bass. There are two systems likely preferred by bassists using an Axe-FXII:
- A new FRFR bass cabinet, comprised of a woofer, a mid-bass driver, and a tweeter horn. Several manufacturers already have these products available. By all means, share your experiences with us.
- Users who will want to use their Axe-FXII with a solid-state amp and their existing bass cabinets. Again, if you have experience with these applications, we’d love to hear about it.
All suggestions are welcome! :encouragement:
