Bluesy Riffing on The AxeFx Ultra Thru QSC K12 Speakers

Bluesy riffing on the Axe. This guitar is not ideal for bluesy stuff since it has active blackouts in it, but I was in the mood to play it today. I experimented with recording the sound coming out of my speakers with an Olympus LS10 handheld, rather than going direct into the computer. I use a pair of QCS K12's and they sound incredible with the AxeFx.

i was going to order a power amp for my soon-arriving ultra when someone told me that i should rather try FRFR...now i'm not sure what to do xD great video!

@Xiacro I could not get a good tone with a power amp + cab setup. was ready to send the axe back but figured I would try FRFR first and now I'm in heaven. I took my axe down to Sam Ash and plugged into some qsc k12's and was totally blown away. The whole guitar dept was in the pa room to see why huge guitar tone was coming out of there. Could not leave without a pair of those speakers. Any music store will be glad to let you try that (and drool on your AxeFx.).

@99voltsdotcom Hmm now i really don't want to go for anything less than the QSC K12 :D They released a new axe fx II yesterday and are saying the cab options are even better than in ultra, one more reason for me to get FRFR instead of power amp+cab...thanks for your response =)

[99voltsdotcom]

@Xiacro I see the new axe II...hope you did not already order the other one. Try out some different speakers when you do get it. Some people prefer different FRFR brands. Do a search for FRFR shootout on the fractal board, that's a good discussion about them.

Too bright, thin, and sterile sounding IMHO. Good playing though.
