Nov 19, 2008 - Forgot to ask Mick ,did you use the Evidente Eclipse H3000 Harmonizer into the Vox AC30 or was it the Axe Fx Ultra into the Vox?

mick3b1g Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - Thanks for the comments. Its all Axe fx Ultra. I had an Eventide Eclipes and sold it. Ive been spending time trying to duplicate that sound with the Axe. Chain was Gib Explorer/axe/ac30 thats it.

Nov 19, 2008 - Is that a new explorer or an old vintage?

mick3b1g Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - I own 2 Explorers. This one is a 2006. I have a Seth lover in the neck and a burstbucker in the bridgeM

Nov 19, 2008 - what kind of shimmer is that. could you give an explanation of how it works and if you can get the tone with a verbzilla

Nov 19, 2008 - That was great Mick. Would love to see the full version. Though i understand you are just showing the shimmer.

Nov 19, 2008 - sound fantastic!!could you get shimmer like this with the verbzilla?want to buy one but only need it for the shimmer so i want to make sure its worth it.

muggle911 Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - Amazing...are you putting the Axe-FX shimmer through the normal channel on the AC30 and other Axe-FX effects chain through the Top Boost, how does that work?

mick3b1g Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - no one chain but there is a split virtually within the axe where i can add shimmer and keep my straight path pure. I blend back together and out to ac30

Nov 19, 2008 - mick3b1g, i love my axe fx. i love your ability to dial it in too! What I would give for this preset! Awesome job.

Nov 19, 2008 - Why are you using an Explorer instead of a Country Gentleman?

mick3b1g Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - because i dont own one

VertigoEdge Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - HOLY **** !That damn awsom :O!NOw im really interrested what kind of pitch shift (shimmer you used ) i mean .. how many pitch shifting ? and how many tones up ? i would really apreciate if you could tell me .. i have a 19" rack unit with (dual) pitch shifting.. not nearly as great the axe fx but it gets the job done ( mostely)

Nov 19, 2008 - That's it--I'm getting an Axe-FX. The engineers who conceived this amazing guitar adjunct deserve some sort of an award...
