(In no particular order. Just my 2¢. YMMV.)
What have YOU learned from your Axe-Fx?
Sound guys can be friendly people.
I still hate RAT pedals.
If it's below ~89 Hz, I don't want it (unless I'm playing my bass).
The new firmware is coming soon.
- Even though I've played tube amps for almost 20 years, a digital device made me understand how things like sag, transformer impedance, and bias excursion influence my tone.
- Smaller cabinets (1x12, 2x12, 2x10, etc.) like my Fenders better than my humbucker guitars.
- The new Dumble models have taught me firsthand just how cleanly Robben and Larry play.
- Many tube purists still listen with their eyes. (I think they're threatened by the fact that I can nail their tone, and still have room for 383 more.)
- If someone held a gun to my head and told me that I had to pick one tube amp to use for the rest of my life, I now feel like I could make an educated choice that I would be able to live with.
- Using a DIGITAL device, I can play a whole gig on one preset by simply adjusting my guitar volume.
- Trainwreck? Oh, I get it now!
