Axe FX II (FW12) - High Gain Showcase (28 amp models - Metal) - Video
PUBLISHED:  Nov 13, 2013
DESCRIPTION:
With FW12 the Axe FX II has come a long way. There are a lot more amps to choose from for high gain tones and it's sounding better than ever. More than a year has passed since my last showcase so it was time for an update.

Hope you enjoy and have fun watching. m/

-DISCLAIMER-
My goal with this vid is to show merely a glimpse of high gain tones that the Axe can do now with all these different amp models just right out of the box. To achieve this, I tried getting the best possible tone (to my ears) with each amp and I used whatever means (drives/eq/cab IRS/etc) I deemed necessary to get there. My goal is not to compare these amps against one another even though that is kind of inevitable. If you own an Axe, you can have all of these tones and a lot more so I don't really see the point of comparing. Also my goal is not to try and get as close to the real amps as possible because I've simply ever owned any of these amps so I have no clue how they sound. There will probably be some people arguing that I should have maybe done it in a different way, for example: using the same cab, not using drives, all settings at noon, etc. That kind of thing is not for me. I strive to get the best possible tone to my ears and I use whatever can to get there. At the end of the day, that's what really matters, right?
