I've heard a TON of high gain clips and lotsa clean-clean ones.
Can it do ACDC tones?

Yes, I play in an ACDC tribute band as Malcolm and I started using the Axe recently. Does a very good job.
You can check out our clips and videos at the link in my sig. The non live "studio" cuts were done by "Angus" and he had only had his unit for a week or two and made the clips.

Not a bad tone on it's own but not close at all to that AC/DC crunch IMHO. He's using way too much gain and not enough crunchy mids. Old Greenbacks do help though.

Sounds good man. Singer nails it!
 
I like the 900 model with low gain and a slight boost, for my parts. It works better with my picking style and current guitar set up and I like the extra compression for "riffs" like Riff Raff :thumbsup:

Granted it's Mal more circa Back In Black - but it's all good.

Tosh - thanks for the listen, he (the singer) is what sold me on playing with the guys. When I saw their ad I was like - "Yeah, right someone who thinks they can sing like Bon, I seriously doubt it," but he does a damn good job at it.
