Just wanted to inform you about some new purchases that I've made.
First thing I bought is Tremol -No and I'll install it in my custom as soon as I receive it, so far the FR on my custom is dive-only and we'll have to dig regular cavity for FR, drilling, here I come. And finally, I got myself kind a present for new 2010, a AxeFX Ultra from Fractal Audio. Perhaps some of you have heard about it, it is a fully digital unit, works like some kind of computer optimized for guitar sounds, studio or live usage, doesn't matter. Uber cool thing about it is that guys from Fractal are making new firmwares quite often and basicly you get better and better unit every time you install new firmware. They also expand list of amps and cabs with new firmwares, not to mention that cabinets section work with IRs so you can use custom impulses etc, zillion of options indeed. To be honest, I NEVER thought that digital would EVER make this possible, this sound, dynamic, response etc, the unit is totally mind blowing and I can't wait to put my hands on it, it shall be here in a week or som. -------------------- Youtube

USER ERROR But that's okay, blame the device a little more For some folks passing through confused about AxeFX, here's Ketil Strand with a decent idea for demoing that's been posted to GMC a couple months ago: -------------------- ::jafomatic

USER ERROR But that's okay, blame the device a little more For some folks passing through confused about AxeFX, here's Ketil Strand with a decent idea for demoing that's been posted to GMC a couple months ago: Yeah, I know, its probably "USER ERROR" in my case.... I've seen the vid before, it just sounds amazing, but I recently tested the Eleven rack from Digidesign and that one disappointed me a little.... even that it has raging reviews..... //Staffay -------------------- Guitars: Ibanez AM-200, Ibanez GB-10, Fender Stratocaster Classic Player, Warmouth Custom Built, Suhr Classic Strat, Gibson Les Paul Standard 2003, Ibanez steel-string Amps: Fender Hot Rod Deluxe, Marshall JMP 2103, AER 60 Effects: BOSS DD-20, Danelectro Trans.

that one disappointed me a little.... even that it has raging reviews..... Hmm... device bad despite other people's reviews ...or user error again? I haven't tried this brand personally so I can't get too far into the discussion, but I do feel compelled to point out the trap of blaming devices instead of ourselves. -------------------- ::jafomatic

And guess what, AxeFx is the winner in every single category. -------------------- Youtube

Yeah, I surely think it's an incredible piece of gear, I would love to try it, but the local dealers around here had never heard about it.... So I guess I have to wait til some other people also tells them what to get in stock... I definitely think that You made a wise decision here! //Staffay -------------------- Guitars: Ibanez AM-200, Ibanez GB-10, Fender Stratocaster Classic Player, Warmouth Custom Built, Suhr Classic Strat, Gibson Les Paul Standard 2003, Ibanez steel-string Amps: Fender Hot Rod Deluxe, Marshall JMP 2103, AER 60 Effects: BOSS DD-20, Danelectro Trans.

Situation in US is little bit better tho, Tone Merchants has it but no one else. -------------------- Youtube

It's a pretty pricey piece of equipment to buy without trying. Although......if Muris and Marco Sfogli think it rocks then that is a pretty good endorsement....... Congrats on your new gear Muris. I still can't say 100% for sure that it rocks but I truly hope it does, at least from what I have heard so far, thanks. -------------------- Youtube
