[ultimatekrabbe]

If I weren't already a subscriber I'd be right now - awesome feel man! keeping rock/metal classics alive!

[kmanick]

what speaker cab is being used in this demo? it sounds great! (as usual)

[nedular2]

Nuff said....

[travelbyrocket]

what speakers are you using in the 4x12?

[WcPh666]

@scarymike51 Check out misha mansoor from periphery if u don't already know him.. He has videos testing out the axe fx and recently the axe fx 2

[AlexMcshred6505plus]

:O... \m/-_-\m/

[scarymike51]

I wish someone would play some metal with this thing and post a video of it. Every video is clean or light rock. Come on.

[IronGuitarist]

Incredibly reminiscent of the best tone i've ever heard.

[Sempervai]

Nice Judas Priest (Electric Eye...kick ass song)! Also, props for being left hand dominant (wearing your watch on the right hand as I do) and playing guitar "normal". I am guessing you are ambidextrous as am I.

[neo69hk]

More high gain video of axe-fx 2 please .

[Ampfanatic666]

sounds like the old version? whats the difference?

[samhillband]

@Ampfanatic666 Lots

[dannywild100]

never heard anything like that best tone on earth

[MyLifeChanger]

@dannywild100 then you haven't heard the mark v by mesa boogie

[rsaenzs]

Please Mark..tell us about this axe fx 2......should i sell my old one and get this.....is there a big difference? dont try to sell this....just be honest and tell us the truth...because i have the standard and sound killer....is it possible to sound much better with this one?

Thanks so MUCH

Peace

Ramiro

ELECTRIC EYE .....ONE OF THE GREATEST METAL SONGS OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!! AMAZING!!!

[christopherzberlin]

Hey Mark, now that you tested the thing - would you say it's such a big step from the Ultra? Especially when using a real poweramp and cabs - are the preamps sounding more real? Is the feel different? Thanks for the video man!

[joeboogie83]

It only sounds good cuz of the VHT!

[lyndsaysworici]

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

[tomnottom1]

@samhillband No one likes you Mark :)

[RediForKing]

best tone i've ever heard in my life

[millavanhalen]

@samhillband Hey Mark, just sent my deposit to tone merchants for Axe II. I see you are moving down to Cali. Question is, what will you do without snow! LOL...

[hillysats]

Judas Priest ftmfw

[helterskelter786]

The Evil Priest!!!!!!!

[snapascrew]

Thanks to axe fx II I will probably be getting an axe fx standard used! woohoo!

[Fender308]

Monstrous tone and playing ;)

[Whyrendog]

I think it's definitely an improvement since I've heard you play similar things with the same guitar/setup and the Axe FX1 and there's something more much better about this.

[snapascrew]

@Whyrendog he's not normally using those cabs tho.. something to pay attention to

[bmwm3cs]

Dude you are the greatest in the WORLD!!!!!!

[JazzRockBluesFunk]

I love it!

[edla2005]

Oh, and I forgot to give you props Mark! You are always great and entertaining in your video's. You are a fantastic guitar player and you make some faces when you are playing that crack my ass up! It's nice to see someone who is just happy when they're playing and not hiding in a shadow or chopping their head out of the video to hide from the world. Also, you shouldn't say I know I play this wrong, etc. I haven't heard anything yet in your vids that sounds wrong. Keep up the work my friend! :-)

[edla2005]

I love this!

Although, I have heard some other players on Youtube playing the AxeFX and sometimes that cold digital sound kind of creeps in slightly. I think this probably sounds better because of the VHT Poweramp pushing the sound as compared to say a crap 112 combo amp. I was going to buy the AxeFX Ultra I because it is selling at premium right now because the 2 is coming out soon. Now, I think I am gonna have to save about $600 more dollars and get the Ultra-2?

[Stringprodigy]

Rawwwwwwwk!!!

[petepachio]

GREAT TONE JESUS! MONSTEROUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[alphadog62]

Great Job as always Mark. Where is Friedman?

[tehsimo]

so does it beat the axefx 1 by a notable margin?

[MrPatrickFallon]

Please tell me the name of the first riff you played. I'll love you forever.

By the way, awesome demo man! You never disappoint!

[prs22you]

@MrPatrickFallon - The first riff was Electric Eye from Judas Priest. Great playing Mark, you always sound great.

[Moltisanti]

haha Mark you're going to cause a meltdown on the Axe FX forum with that vid :D

[mongoose979]

you are THE Tone Master!! Question, before Axe and the like mastered the process of quality digital reproduction, were you the type of guy with a half dozen different tube amps and 50+ pedals ?

[fluff191]

How different is the sound quality compared to the original Axe-Fx?

[gtralien]

Oh yeah... the AFX2 sounds sick... what pickups are you using? Didja get tired of the Blackouts or what?

[SomethinWild]

@gtralien I think he's already been using the Suhr Aldrich's for a while...

[gtralien]

Hey Mark! If you get the chance hop down to Guitar Center Lake Forest and say hi!!

[sexyriffs]

NICE NICE NIIIIIICE!!!

[rastadarrin]

Sounds good but you gotta talk dude!! We want a 20 minute video with the whole lowdown on this thing and your move to L.A and what you have in store for us all.

And we want it NOW!!! lol

[UGNecrophagist777]

Can't wait to get one and hear it through my Engl 850/100 bet it will even slay my ultra. Great video as always.

[jkdsteve]

That sounds good...but with a VHT power amp behind it and two 4x12s..why wouldn't it? \m/

Sounds a little different from the mark day usual tone as well.. \m/

[Norsesky]

Awesome Mark, first ever youtube video about the Axe 2 if I'm not mistaken !
