Determining Your Setup

The "Setup" filter helps you to focus on those presets best-suited for how you use your Axe-Fx.

FRFR/Direct presets (like all of the Factory presets) are designed for "full-range flat-response" systems such as studio monitors, PAs, headphones, etc.

Pwr. Amp + Cab presets use real power amps and guitar speakers.

4-Cable Method (aka :4CM") presets require a special setup with connectors both in front of and in the effects loop of a real amp.

Fx Loop presets in the loop of a real amp. A loop may be SERIES or PARALLEL and the preset needs to be built accordingly.

Gtr Amp Input presets should be used in front of a (real) head or combo. Guitar->Axe-Fx->Amp Input.

Other setups also exist (e.g. combinations of the above).

The Axe-Fx II manual (chapter three) includes more information about setups.

"Cab" search results ignore the settings of this filter.

Description A customized preset to my preference to get a Boston style tone. I took parts of Burgs preset and made it my own. A little more crunchy and more bottom end. I used a Les Paul bridge pickup to dial these in. CS1 controls lead boost & echo. Scene 3 is clean I used the FAS Brown Amp for Crunch & Plexi 100 W Jumped for clean sounds. I used Dyna-cabs for everything. Please give a like if you care to, I will continue to contribute presets if I get positive feedback. Thanks
