Played one of these the other day I'm normally a LP/Flying V type guy ...not that much into the strat shape (also don't think it looks as cool hehe) Not really into floyds/whammy bars but see below\/ But man.....some great features on this guitar , Piezo is a big one. Feels like a swiss army...

see if you can find big wreck live at roy thomson with an orchestra...unbelievable! used to be on google video but seems to be gone now :(

hahah thats one of the thornley songs I just wish they would drop! (all of them for that matter!!!) great playing tho!

pretty cool he got invited to audition for velvet revolver also. great video _FbWRNqy7P0

LhOYflyfOPM I shouldn't be too harsh maybe its made out of the same exotic woods all these guys run after :lol: :LOL:

great playing but there is something about the distortion thats off to my ears. Its like the "grit" or "glassiness" and kinda sounds fake :( ( I can hear it with a few models) Same thing I think it was as the interactive guitar magazine when they did the review (used that fredman amp)...

I always wondered if Ian came from a rich family because back in the early days he always had a sick collection of what seemed like VERY expensive guitars....and knowing musicians don't make much $$$$

Thats good because Big Wreck was criminally slow releasing new albums!!! (not including breakup)

lol you do realise what genre most BM guys use the guitar for right? not exactly what i call a great example for tone when you get the same sound with a pod and a broomstick

Actually they sound a lot closer to this x3_rsg2yvkw You could bring in the greatest 4/4 metal riff to a rehersal to these bands and they would cut anything out that wasn't on the lowest string and totally fuck up the timing Its a genre where being offtime means more than actually having a...

I'm ok with that

Pretty much this I've played a bunch of black machines and they are killer guitars. I was thinking about picking up one years ago before the price went thru the roof. (insanity) If you look at the guys playing on them some are only using one string and a few frets lmao I swear there is profits...

yeah I've seen that before and there is some big inaccuracies in it and keith merrow did a video profiling the axe-fx , I've even done some patches and they came out perfect some serious user error on his part plus he leaves out you need to create a preset as close as possible to the sound you...

As stated earlier whatever issue there was (and only on certain profiles) got fixed quite a few updates ago ffs For me a reason I like the kemper more for recording is because its 44.1khz spdif which is what I record at The axe is 48khz I used the USB on the axe-fx and hated it!!! I had to...

make sure you check out the pre amp profiles as they might be to your liking if you are using it with a 4X12 I've only used mine direct for recording and FRFR

well was talking about kemper issue up top and the axe down the bottom ;) not saying issues don't get fixed up with the axe fw either , just saying the whole "real" thing has been going on forever and anytime someone makes a comparison its like "oh well you haven't tried FW13 yet" etc etc

bollocks There was a slight issue and that got taken care of many fw revisions ago I trust sneap , lasse and wagners opinions on tone ...thats enough for me lol And lol at the "recent developments fixed the feel issues" been hearing this garbage back since the ultra days

With all the tech mumbo jumbo ...for anyone that has done a profile of an axe-fx with the kemper and have it sound identical kinda makes the point moot I agree especially on the last part also!

Its marketing BS I've compared numerous amps to the axe-fx II once the whole "mimic" thing came out and its not even close on the ones I've tried There may some that are but not on the ones I've checked and you only have to check the forum and the revisions to see how quite a few have been...

I'd just stay away and use the regular proven stuff thats done an excellent job for years
