I know several people who own the Axe or Axe Ultra. General consensus  
is that the effects are on par with Eventide, and the amp models  
surpass Line 6's stuff. There is a wait list because it is a very  
small company. But customer service is fantastic. The owner/designer  
of the unit implements user suggestions right away in new software  
upgrades to the machine. I had a chance to buy an Ultra when my name  
came up on the waiting list but I passed on it for now b/c I have too  
much other debt. But one day I will get one, most likely.
