Hi Guys
I have been a tube amp guy my entire playing life (20 years). Recently I decided to head down the Axe Fx route for my rig. After trying a few different power amps with the Axe, I ended up taking the plunge and ordered the Matrix GT800FX. I have never used a SS power amp before and at first I was underwhelmed by my tone to say the least. How ever, being the Axe Fx noob that I am, I realise my patches were EQ'd for a tube power amp. So after a few little EQ tweaks, WOW I am now definitely impressed by this unit! I run the Axe Fx and Matrix through a 412 cab with V30's and it sounds awesome! Can't wait to try it with a band!!
I must give a massive shout out to Matt and Pamela from Matrix for making my purchase esay and stress free!! Not to mention fast shipping - England to Australia in a little over 3 days!! It is a rarity to find such great service in this day and age!! (And I work in the service industry lol) Cheers Guys!!!
