So I recently sold my axe ultra. I currently have a spare ultra to gig with. I also purchased a used Axe II from a forum member. It's on its way.
Well last night we had practice and I didn't have time to switch the spare ultra into my rig nor did I want to carry my heavy pedal board case, rack and head to practice. So I just took my head. Used the other guitarist's cab and guitar.
I literally played the whole practice with my rockerverb, a tube screamer and a PRS DGT. Everything sounded great and it was fun. My playing was awesome. Couldn't believe how well solo's sounded even without some delay. It really was a blast and made me think I might just have to have two rigs for awhile. I'm not going back to pedals for good or anything. I need a lot of effects for some stuff but man I almost felt free last night. Indecisiveness at its best. Numerous gear head friends have told me I'll go full circle at some point. That being said I'm also really really excited to receive the axe II and check out the V10 sounds.
Not trying to convince anyone, just wondering if any of you have done this from time to time. I'll never be Axe FX- less. But there is something to be said for simplicity.
