imo
gt-8 has very good amp modelling as well my vote goes to gt-8 as its newer and has more options than ax3000g also effects from the gt-8 is really really good im not saying ax3000g is bad though, its very good on its own. |

korg is definitely cheaper
try ur luck for g9.2tt the amp models shud sound warmer and transparent compared to the gt-8 since it has tubes but i cant guarantee it effects wise i remember it was pretty good too, give a call / visit ck music i remmeber they gave me a REALLY nice price for g9.2 1.4 i think and that was quite awhile back |

QUOTE(davidlow7 @ Mar 21 2007, 08:51 PM) But actually I am not so much concern of Amp modelling.. if tone is wat you're all aboutof coz amp modelling will be great to me but i am more concern of the tone.. the sound... especially Distortion tone... those are very important to me... to me that comes first then only modelling  then podxt/xt live is wat you're looking for awesome amp models btw your distortion tone will differ with each amp model and given the quality and quantity of the models im sure you'll be able to find yours QUOTE(blacktrix @ Mar 21 2007, 09:15 PM) Go to CK music and try out the POD units..... alot on display and if asked nicely, they will be more then willing to let you test them. ck music has always been more than happy to let u try their stuffI'm using a Line6 UX2 (A guitar input unit, for recording my guitar) and the effects and amp models are based on the POD units..... and they sound VERY good. Will be forking out USD100 to get more amps and effects. its my fav shop as the customer service is the best i've EVER experienced it too bad that they don't carry much stuff that i want This post has been edited by sean392: Mar 21 2007, 09:33 PM |

QUOTE(davidlow7 @ Mar 22 2007, 05:38 PM) Yeah where do you stay? Getting a 2nd hand GT6 wouldn't be a bad idea but just can't find 1 at the moment. When people are selling, I have no budget. When I have the budget, nobody is selling. *sad* I have gone to some Music Shops to order GT8. They don't have stock available and they called alot of their suppliers and they said Malaysia are now short of supply. Unless there are some shops who happened to keep them.... They called Bentley and Do Re Mi.. even them also don't have stocks and they claim that there are alot of people now ordering and not so sure next month you will get the stock or not. But 80% should have.. Another sad case for me... So they recommended me a POD XT LIVE.... But I can't test them... It is abit hard for me to go KL just to test it personally.. haizzzz too bad... I guess I may juz have to wait.. But surprisingly.. POD XT Live.. I found it less than RM1600 after discount public transport ftw  |

QUOTE(echobrainproject @ Mar 22 2007, 07:29 PM) if u've never tried out sansamp products, you MUST test it. go to js music and ask to test. u'll be surprised how good it is. i wouldnt mind getting one and hook it into my GT8 loop to *gasp* replace my rack unit. really?akeiser owns a discontinued tech21 amp that has 3 amp 'modelling' (smth along the lines or architechtured analigue modelling thingy) which models the fender, marshall and mesa. it sounds hell really good. beats his podxt live flat out (except for the amount of choices). dang sounds killer then @everdying yeah bout there @gapnap not only the packaging the unit itself is like toys =p tho i do own a behringer eq pedal =p the sansamp copy is much better built tho |
