The legendary Irwin Thomas / Jack Jones. Many Aussies know him as the frontman of Southern Sons, but I don't think that his amazing guitar playing and tones get enough attention. Check out Leon Todd's great rig rundown with Jack here and here what he does with his Axe-Fx III:

A question we always get is “can fractal do fuzz?” The answer is yes. It most definitely can. This is a default plexi preset with a face fuzz in the AM4 and audio straight from the phone. The cab is a 212 Celestion Greenbacks powered by the AMP-S.

A small yet mighty rig! The AM4 and EV2 will give you all the tonal options you need and the AMP-S will power your favourite speaker cab or available backline. Our favourite is 2x12 Celestion Greenbacks. What cab are you plugging the AM4 and Amp-S into?

Does the AM4 clean up with the volume pot? Listen for yourself and let us know!

We think it sounds pretty great through the AMP-S power amp and 212 cab with Celestion Greenback speakers!

Audio is recorded straight from a phone.

How's this tone and playing! Thanks Brett Garsed for sharing this clip. An FM9 Mk II Turbo and a Cilia guitar is a great combo!

Solo from my gig with Lee Bradshaw's band "Horizon" a couple of weeks ago.
