Also those who 'don't have the time to listen to 263 amp's' in the demo video your missing out there is some great sounds happening...

Like i said i bough the POD HD 500 first, then when Helix was available bought it, then a variax..i had never previously considered the Fractal..until now..and I do like the idea of 'instant gratification' rather than have to tweek to get to that result.

Yeah right.....I am sure your so secure with your ability and playing and little bass playing.

Nope i read it and i don't agree i think it would not sound the same as good tone comes from the person playing it not the electronics only

Well completely don't agree and luck its not that way. You can have all the best gear, the exact gear and never sound as good or close if its not in you to do so. Anyone can learn a riff but make it sing is a different deal.

To all those that are complaining about this post or think i am just trying to justify AXFX 3 purchase...I have Line 6 Helix, POD 500 and a Variax for years. I bought third party IR's and presets built my own and have some decent sounds but it hasnt been easy, Helix has always been not pleasing with their presets (default) ..AXFX just the sheer number of amps and ir's dwarfs helix. That said there is plenty i like about Helix, like the form factor, the build quality, the led's the integrated expression pedal the editor.However when i go and check out all the guitarists I like, in most cases AXFX is part of their rig ..cant say the same for Line 6. So either they know something or maybe because you are so loyal to your purchase and really its 'good enough' but for me, at the end of the day i want to be inspired by the tones not fighting, tweeking eq mastering and un fizzing... All that said, I already own alot of line 6 and will continue to use it...for now

cruisinon2--- you always yak but say nothing

Well more like a tweaker's nightmare. I have spent alot of time with Helix, got about as good as i think possible ..

No i am just asking for those who say helix is great to post a clip so i can hear it...

Kilrahi ..still waiting to hear something you have done on helix..anything

cruisinon2 - I know you have been around for awhile, can you post something you have done with helix that sounds good to your ears?

Seriously..I think that as a Helix owner you really 'want' it to be ok...and there is good reason for that. But that said, if you dont here a difference you really should not buy an AXFX 3..just sayin..

Just an FYI the price on AXFX 3 is now Now: $2,249.99

Kilrahi Just curious, but do you like Hawaiian pizza? If your asking do I like crappy sound? no If I was betting, I would bet you would not post anything you have done on helix...

No offense but if you cant here the difference..your likely fine with Helix..for me its night and day..
