Anyone think the axe fx is overstated and overpriced at £1800 (ish)
Ive been doing a lot of reading , youtube vids, and forum research on it. The forum stuff in particular was quite revealing , because you have noob to intermediate guitarists recording with it , and it sounds like any other amp or even an impulse response software amp. Then ofcourse you have pro recordings too , in which it sounds really great , but i wonder howmuch of that is down to good mixxing and mastering techniques...
I also see loads of people selling their latest axefx2 , so they can get the new axefx2XL ; the only difference is the XL has more memory for presets , no new sounds. Do you think its a cult following, or is the item really that good ?
After nearly 20 years playing and being an equipment enthusiast , it feel like the majority of stuff is marketting hype these days , and i can imagine spending thatmuch money only to be let down by what is , basically , a guitar sound. Id probably tweak it to get an ada sound , when ive already an ada sitting here
....
Any thoughts guys !?
