I saw Sonny Landreth on the Artist page. Is he using an Axe fx, AX8, FX8?
Just curious if he uses it for studio or stage?

Is he using a Dumble live these days? Last I heard he was using a Demeter preamp... But my knowledge might be outdated.I would like to hear FX8 4cm into his Dumble
I don't know....I certainly wouldn't want to tour with it...but I know he's got oneIs he using a Dumble live these days? Last I heard he was using a Demeter preamp... But my knowledge might be outdated.
Awesome!i worked with Sonny to get his AX8 tweaked out to do it all. not there yet though. he uses several pedals to get his tone, and the pedals he uses just aren't available on the AX8 yet. we got his basic amp tone pretty spot on, even good with one of his pedals, but that last distortion just adds too much character and tonal changes, and we ran out of processor and effects blocks pretty quickly.
next trip down there I'm gonna bring the axe-fx II and make a custom IR for him so we can free up some eq's to help tweak the final distortion stage. i would have brought the axe-fx II down there on the first trip had i known what all he was using to get his tone.
tips for his tone: bassman into V30 loaded 4-12" cabinet. tube driven distortion with eq, compressor, solid state distortion plus eq.
and no i don't have permission to give out his presets just yet. he may want to perfect them a little more first. will keep you posted once he calls back to schedule another day for preset making at his friend's studio in Lafayette, La.

One of my favorite live shows ever was in the late 90's when Sonny was touring with John Hiatt..to see him in person playing the way he does 3-4 feet away from you is just crazy. i've been playing forever....and i can't dream of doing what he does.
