Haha. Dramatic, eh? It's true, though. Everyday I sit in my little room surrounded by great guitars, amps, pedals and cool stuff. In reality, however, and with all due respect to the makers of said cool stuff, the centre of my creativity and work is my Axe-FX III. After cooking dinner for the family (I'm the cook) I always come back to my room and relax by creating tones and presets that I like to share with you guys if I think they're OK. So the Axe-FX III really is "The Object" of my day to day world. Today the presets were doing odd things - input levels up and down ... it wasn't happy. Sputz, hum, levels everywhere. Clearly I'd burned a resistor or cap or some goddamn thing in the front end. So it's gone to the tech gods of Oz (thank you Andrew Farnham) on a fast train. But in the meantime: LOSS. OH GOD. Vacuum. Bigtime! Anyway, I just had to vent because it's a feeling far more saddening to me than losing a guitar. Is yours that important to you?
