Hi Everyone,
I have been on the waiting list for a "AXE-FX-2" for about 5 months now and should be getting it pretty soon, now I am lucky enough to own a decent bit of "Edge" gear in my rack, SDD-3000, SDD-200(x2) Pod Pro, a Korg A3, various pedals (tube-screamer/dyna-comp/big muff/ boss FA-1, and a Pod HD500, got a GCX/Ground control Pro to switch it all, I am a bit of a "Gear Head" do you think it would be a good idea to sell all my "Real-Edge" equipment now that i'm getting the AXE 2, i'm not in a tribute band as such I just like to record at home for pleasure but i'm obsessed with the Edge's guitar tones, and the kudos of owning the real thing is great but the thought of being able to have it all in one box is very appealing.... does anyone have the AXE-FX-2 and how good do you think it will be at reproducing most of every "U2' song out there, or is it a case of "The Emperors' new Clothes" if they are so good wouldn't Edge be using them by now!!!!!!!!! I have heard a lot of tribute bands are using them, just how good is it, is it "Even better than the Real Thing" (pardon the pun" i would love to hear from "Edge Orchestra and Eventide" your opinions will mean so much to me, thanks
