  • Helix vs Axe Fx III vs Tube Amp (8-string edition)

    Hey guys,

    I was writing some riffs with my new 8-string and I thought it would be fun to do a little comparison of the 3 big ones when it comes to guitar tones; the Line 6 Helix, Fractal Audio Axe Fx III and my PRS MT15 tube amp. Now, this is not a super scientific comparison where I try to find out how close I can make them sound, I just wanted to dial in 3 sounds on the platforms without too much comparing between the platforms while I was dialing it in. So it's not really about 'which modeler sounds the closest to the real thing' but more about what suits this guitar the best, if that makes sense...

    8-string guitars can be a little weird to dial in so sometimes amps can be a little bit finicky with those super low tunings. Just to clarify: I think all 3 platforms are excellent! The results are very interesting to me to be honest... I wonder what you guys think:
