Now these are extremely rare in South Africa, so I had to jump on the chance to own an Axe Fx in what ever form I could get my hands on.
I'm extremely happy with it so far, got a lot to learn though. At first I was worried that it was an out-dated piece of gear given that people are all about the Axe 2, but my fears completely dissipated as soon as I started messing with the thing. I'm sure the axe 2 sounds better as it's an updated piece of hardware, but to my ears this sounds VERY nice and will tide me over for a good while.
I also bought a Mackie Thump 12a after demoing a few speakers at a local store. I actually went in looking to test the Alto ts115a as loads of people were raving about it. I tested that, the ts112a, some piece of shit Hybrid brand I believe it was called, and then plugged this thing in. At least to my ears it blew the others away AND was on special.
So yeah I'm pretty happy. PICS!
