Found a perfect hobby to fill in my non guitar playing down time. I recently was at a local PC hardware store looking to upgrade my sound card and saw a stack of these arcade controllers for Windows/PC (it's USB plug and play) and decided to grab one...well now I can't get enough lol. It's heavy...
Same here, new to the Axe FX/modeling thing but a long time tube amp + cab "mic-er" and I have to admit I'm way impressed, at least in a full mix/studio setting. This is still a WIP track at the moment (ears are a little rusty as I had major arm surgery 10 months ago and couldn't play so my...
Just adding some more luv for the AXE III. Everyone knows a nice shiny new piece of gear (especially something as broad as a modeler with both killer amps/cabs but also bitchin' coloring effects you can use in your tube amps loops) can inspire some new ideas, but in my case it's getting me back...
Congrats. They're incredible units, especially for home studio recordists. I grabbed a new "b-stock" Mk II a few weeks ago and couldn't be happier.
Great clip too!
It seems to be a touchy subject on most boards, the whole tube amps vs "other" debate, etc, and I get it, but there's no harm in spoiling yourself and using both (depending on your needs). I'm new to the modeling game, just picked up a B-stock AXE III MK II last month and I gotta say, I fuckin'...
This is a fairly chill piece of guitar music, I'm even thinking younger dudes would call this "dad shred" lol, but whatever, I just like trying to create interesting jams with my ancient gear and time lol.
FWIW, it's a total mixed bag using several different tones from each amp, some parts are...
Wow, that is a shame to hear, he was a forum heavyweight for sure, super cool guy and very knowledgeable on all things gear, so sad.
I'm sure he fought hard. Like someone mentioned, fuckin' cancer claims another, pfft. RIP Steve K
I stumbled onto this killer little OD pedal a few weeks ago (the same day I grabbed my new LP) and I loved what I heard so much this track was born lol.
FWIW this is the Ecstasy GREEN channel set clean, all the drive is from the Jetter "Altair IV" pedal.

I admit I'm personally a life long super strat fan (and always will be) but it felt like it was time to finally add a LP to the mix, I mean why not, I need another SS like I need a hole in the head. After sampling a bunch of new ones, this one in particular was really sweet so I nabbed it! Not...
I'm thinking this will mostly be of interest for older guys like myself, but I thought I'd share this new vid of my little tribute to a childhood fav cartoon.
Hope everyone likes it that remembers Speed Racer - I tried to slip into the video a few touches from the series (I turned my trusty US...
I just finished up this little original tune and wanted to share. I used the SLO for the barely dirty rhythms and a Suhr Koko into the blue channel of the Bogner for the leads. The speakers mic'd are vintage G12M25 Greenies ('71).
Hoping all the rig-talkers are enjoying your Thanksgiving...
I just completed this fairly mellow blue and green channel jam. It's a super simple tune where I only used one amp/guitar/pedal for the entire thing (I rarely can do that lol). Anyway, hope you likey. :)

I seem to remember reading about this somewhere else - but now it's happening to me, bad luck I suppose. Out of nowhere now, every day when I fire up the Ecstasy, my loop button/light makes a loud flickering noise. Of course I quickly hit the loop switch on the floor unit to turn it off and it...
I always thought this was one of the better (well more fun) guitar tunes to come from the early 80's.
FWIW, rhythm gtrs are an SLO, lead is an Ecstasy (blue channel + Koko Boost).
EDIT: Finished this up yesterday, thought I'd share/bump for the complete video.
