I recently bought my first modeler and although I was skeptical at first I have come to understand why they are so popular.
I have always been a tube amp snob and only bought my AA12 out of necessity.
I used it at band practice the other night and was pretty amazed at just how good it sounded.
So, it got me to thinking about what other high end offerings there are on the market.
Im aware of Kemper, Helix, AxeFX etc.
What else is out there, which are the best available, what are the differences in these units and pros/cons of each...
Some have built in power amps and some donĂ¢€™t, then there is the separate foot switch pedal....
The AA12 is a good unit but unless I’m mistaken it’s not really considered a top tier unit? IDK, maybe it is...
But I got to thinking of there are better, more realistic sounding units available, I can definitely see myself NOT lugging an amp to gigs anymore...
Maybe it’s time to think about selling the JCM800?
