I shared this patch with the world only last week. I often do that as it's good to give to the community and kind of therapeutic for me when I'm creating them. But this week the new Axe presets were released for Firmware 28.03 and this one along with a couple of more of mine are burned into it. That's quite an honour for me considering the famous names that appear in this 384-strong bunch of presets as well. Anyway, this one, "Brett's AC20" is number 130 and this little jam (mistakes and all) is the sort of thing I was thinking of when I wrote it. It's 8 Scenes and a bunch of satellite effects that you can switch in/out with each Scene. They're all based on the mighty but petite Morgan AC20, which is a very cool twist on the classic AC30. You can see (and hear) the Scene changes in the editor window as I'm playing. I've kept the amp block window open so you can see the various AC20 permutation changes as I go. I think my favourite bits of this patch are the panning delay which I tend to ride a fair bit, and the fuzz face model. Thanks for watching.
There's another version of this video using a Strat (partscaster) with JJ's '65 Set Pickups. You can see that one at youtu.be/oNXmIFNouqc
