EXTREMELY WELL-EQUIPPED GUITAR SHOP FOR ME ALONE – REALLY GENIAL!

Simply unbelievably good! I've been enjoying the fantastic sound in the rehearsal room for 4 hours.

The FM3 is very easy to use (I can't understand the reviews on the net, it couldn't be simpler and more flexible): Pick amp and cap, add a bit of reverb, tremolo in front of the amp, an analogue delay behind it, a drive in front of it, gate between amp and cap, EQ behind it, a bit of treble off, a bit less bass, add a phaser. What can I say? Within half an hour I had such a grandiose setup with 6 scenes that I've been enjoying it ever since and can't get enough of playing.

I just turned on the MF.10 (with ear protection) (output at +4 dBu). What a riot! I think that should really be enough volume reserves for any situation. I'm flabbergasted...

For the next few weeks I'll have to "rummage" through the range of amplifiers and caps ;-) I feel like I have an extremely well-equipped guitar shop all to myself. Really ingenious!

Thanks for the checkup and the update. The box is running perfectly! By the way, the cooler hasn't started up once in the 4 hours (or so quietly that I didn't hear it during the breaks in playing). Here are a few impressions and greetings from the rehearsal room.

PS: Always G66 and always Fractal! Recommendations are absolutely guaranteed!

M E G A ! THIS THING IS AWESOME!

Hello Jacques,

The FM3 arrived today. Wow! Many thanks for the super-fast processing. Then I opened the package. I was very pleased with the contents. I quickly listened to the factory sounds and, after studying numerous videos, created my first own preset.

What can I say? MEGA! This thing is awesome.  One thing's for sure: KÖNIGSBRUNN IS FM3!

Today I PLAYED for the first time in a very long time and didn't constantly try to make the sound even better. And that with a brand new device.

Thanks again for your service.

Stay healthy & many greetings,
Thom

THANKS TO FRACTAL AUDIO MY SEARCH FOR THE HOLY GRAIL OF GUITAR SOUND HAS COME TO AN END!

Good evening Jacques

If you really remember me and this is not just a copy-paste answer, I am very happy about that :-) To this day, I am always amazed by the great sound and the excellent effects of the Axe-Fx II. I don't think there is anything comparable anywhere in the world. Thanks to Fractal Audio, my search for the Holy Grail of guitar sound had come to an end.

Now I'm all tingly and can hardly wait to unpack the new FM3 and fire it up.

Hope to see you again sometime

NOW I KNOW, IT CAN GET EVEN BETTER !

Hello Jacques;

the FM3 arrived safe and sound yesterday and I was able to test it right away in the band rehearsal. What can I say...I was sure of my Helix...now I know that it can get even better ;-)

Big praise for your sales work! The fast shipping, the personal letter, and on top of that a box of chocolates...it doesn't get any better than that! Keep it up, keep it all the same!
Regards, Alex

 

WITH YOU ONE FEELS SIMPLY AT HOME - SERVICE A DREAM

Morning Jacques,
Today my big guitarist's delight arrived at my place and what can I say?! You guys are amazing!!!

On top of this magnificent instrument, your service is a dream. Starting with that nice personal email. After the order was placed, the delivery was fast. I had the feeling that you knew beforehand that I was going to order and sent everything on its way ;-).

Everything is perfectly packed. The devices are checked in advance and not just blindly sent to the customer.

That's exactly how I imagine it and that's exactly how you make customers happy :) And for all the sweethearts there is also a little surprise.

It just feels like an adoption by G66 and you have been warmly welcomed. You simply make me feel at home.

Thank you very much and stay as you are ;)

Best regards to the far north :) ..
Michael

 

THE SOUND BLOWS YOU AWAY!

Dear Jacques,
I am still very enthusiastic about the fm3. It's one of those few products where you always find an answer already built in, even if it took you months to formulate the question in the first place.

But apart from the technical fascination, it's simply the sound that blows you away. You're right, this thing is just a little happiness maker.

Many greetings to the north!
Christian

AXE-FX IS SUCH A GOOD MACHINE – BETTER THAN ANYTHING ELSE !!!!!

Hello Knut,
thank you very much for your effort! It worked. The Axe Fx III is such a good machine – BETTER THAN ANYTHING ELSE !!!!!

All the best, Jakub!

MAINTAINING SPECIAL CUSTOMER PROXIMITY !

Hi Jacques,
It's always a pleasure to hear/read from you. You have obviously been able to maintain this special customer proximity, which is great! The great device arrived quickly and has finally been in operation since this evening... :-)

Many thanks and best regards.
Christian

I HAD TO CRY MY EYES OUT: SOMETHING HAPPENED THAT I WOULD NEVER HAVE EXPECTED IN THIS LIFE - A MIRACLE!

Hello Jaques,
Yes, so... I'm sitting here and have to write to you. I can't help it. I could cry (and have done so).

To my great surprise, I actually managed to get the FM 3 to sound right through my two Ethos overdrive amps. Tried all the presets, at first hypersceptical (I can hear fleas coughing and.... yes, fleas coughing, whoever says otherwise has no idea), then more and more relaxed, found great clean sounds, on the other hand Bludotone is absolutely great for me. And I'm still only scratching the surface of the possibilities.

I went straight into the guitar inputs after everything else sounded more than suboptimal (FX Return etc.). Not much clipping, I can turn off the bass on the amps anyway. And then something happened that I never expected to happen in this life. For me it's a miracle. God knows I've played and tried out a lot in my life.

My best sound 25 years ago an old Blade Telecaster in a universe!!! solid state Hi-Fi amp with homemade cable, Tube Screamer TS 10, Ibanez Delay, nothing else. Pick-sensitive, nothing sounded like Hi-Fi, tight bass, great clean sounds, never sounded like solid state. Solo it sounded like a mixture of Santana and Dumble (although the term was completely foreign to me at the time). Simply divine. By the way, only with zinc-carbon batteries in the tube screamer, if they weren't in, the sound was almost gone.

And I wasn't the only one who found it divine. I have never been able to reproduce this sound since.

And today, I am still completely stunned... actually speechless and struck to the core...so I go to preset 73 (ODS HRM Hot Touch), bridge pickup and immediately, instantly get goosebumps. There it is. The sound. Without changing anything. With a light touch a David Lindley sound, with more touch Robben Ford (Talk to your daughter, Cannonball Shuffle, depending on the picking). As I said, I am completely stunned. Even if all the rest of the presets were unusable for me, I would have to keep the thing. I am shocked... Like a dream. It's certainly partly a happy interaction of the FM 3 and the rather improper use (Ethos Amp instrument input, modelling and cabs not switched off), but strangely enough it doesn't make noise like before, even without the humbuster. The overall sound is even better than it was back then. I've been noodling for 4 hours now ;)

FM3 Edit and Fractal Bot also work and now I'm blissfully going to sleep and dreaming of Alexander Dumble; who is surrounded by lots of good-looking girls. God rest his soul and yours.

A warm greeting from Kirchheimbolanden,
Andreas

FRACTAL AUDIO IS  T - H - E  SOUND!

Dear Jacques,

How nice it is to receive an email directly from the owner and thank you also for your personalised letter. Just wanted to give a quick update as your customer service is so great. FM3 arrived yesterday. I am honestly speechless. I am never stepping back to other gear and will now start selling my floor effects collection. The Fractal sound is T-H-E sound.

Thanks for everything,
Frank

WOW.... NEVER HAD SUCH A GOOD SOUND! I AM A HAPPY GUITARIST!

Hi Jacques, I've had the FM9 since yesterday and just wanted to say a huge thank you! My wife Marion bought it from you as a surprise for me....and it was a real success. Great service and insane quality. I'm a happy guitarist. Wow....Have never had such a good sound.

Best regards / Timo

THE ELIS.8 HAS ENHANCED MY FM9 SIGNIFICANTLY - SOUNDS HUGE !

wolfgang

Hello Jaques,
I didn't want to miss giving you some short feedback:

The speakers and pedal arrived here safe and sound a few days ago.  I like the boxes very much and they enhance my FM9 considerably - a very good and inspiring sound.  And indeed, the two small boxes sound at least as big as my Deluxe Reverb and, thanks to the FM9, also very authentic.

Many thanks for the excellent service!

Best regards,
Wolfgang

I ADMIRE YOUR CONCEPT - KEEP IT UP!

Dear Jacques,
I am happy and surprised at the same time about your personal answer.

I admire your concept of bringing high-quality products directly to the customer - professionally and very personally. And I admire that you have very successfully managed to win over the customers themselves as brand ambassadors.

Some of my (advertising) clients follow the same concept - also with success!
Keep up the good work!

Best regards from Bad Waldsee

EXCELLENT SIMPLY TOP CLASS - IN LOVE WITH THE FX III TURBO!

Hello Jacques,
Just to give you some feedback: I spend hours every day with the FX III Turbo - I'm totally in love with it! The workflow is so logical, and although very complex, absolutely flawless. I have not encountered a single bug or the like. I am glad that I spontaneously decided in favour of the "TURBO" when talking to you! I have never exceeded 65% workload at any time.

So: excellent, simply top class. It is easy to understand why the FX III Turbo is used by top musicians and in studios. I am happy to be able to work with it as a little guitar lover and amateur axe torturer.

I wish you and your family a good time and good health!

Kind regards,
Peter

A SPECIAL FEELING WITH G66!

Hello Jacques
I have to give you a huge compliment. I have already had a few questions about the FM3 and I have to mention that you always answer in a very short time: especially currently from Knut.

G66, simply a special feeling and a company that feels responsibility towards its customers!

Many thanks
Dominic

YESTERDAY I BEGAN TAKING APART MY PEDAL BOARD!

Hi,

I spent a long time convincing myself - over the last 15-20 years I've collected a large number of amps and pedals…even dealt in them (www.hiddennotes.de) and after a couple of days with the FM3, yesterday I began taking apart my pedal board…what I want to say is, what a fantastic product!

I'm totally addicted and asking myself why I didn't try it ages ago…but better late than never, right?

All the best and catch you soon;)

THE NICEST AND BEST SERVICE (AND NOT ONLY IN MUSIC)

Hello Jacques,
Thank you very much for the nicest and best service I know (and not only in the music field))

SOUNDS I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR FOR OVER 40 YEARS

Hello Jacques,

After intensive familiarisation with this wonderful AXE FXIII system and the FC6 and FC12 controllers, I have to admit after just under 3 weeks - sensationally good, and I can realise exactly the sounds that I have been looking for for over 40 years. The money I could have saved, not to mention all the lugging around of various tube amps and 4x12 cabinets… Super classy and extremely addictive - you just can't drag yourself away. You are absolutely right - this really is a guitarist's delight - thank you for it.

Kindest regards and stay healtyh 
Richard

SOOOO EXCITED - SOUND BLEW ME AWAY!

Danke Jacques,

I'm soooo excited about the AXE FX III..... especially the sound, which really blew me away - never thought I'd say that about a modelling device :)

I've been putting together a lot of presets with my favourite amps over the last few days, and I'm looking forward to being able to keep my hands on the guitar when I change my scenes and effects....

Best regards from Graz, Martin

TOP SUPPORT OVER ALL THE YEARS

Hello Jacques,
Thank you very much for the great support over the years.
Regards, Anselm

DAMN IT, THIS IS CRAZY


Dear Jacques,
Damn it, this is crazy! The new AxeFX is exactly what I had hoped for - only even better!

Having skipped the second generation this is a real quantum leap for me. It all just sounds so real!

I may just be a very average guitarist, but it is such good fun being able to at least sound like a great one - with all the sounds we know and love from our favourite bands! Now I can finally hear just how different my guitars really sound...

And so far I've only tried out a few of the factory presets and changed very little.

Fantastic! Sorry, have to stop writing... there's a guitar to play ?!

I wish you and your team a great week!

All the best,
Oskar

BEST HANDLING WORLDWIDE!

Hi Jaques
FC-6 arrived, installed ... works! Once again, a thousand THANKS for the absolute best handling worldwide.
There is no other company where I prefer to buy.

Kind regards Nicolai

 

SUPPORT THAT IS FASTER THAN YOU. EVEN AT THE WEEKEND !

Hello Jacques;
I also wanted to thank you again for the quick handling of my problems with the FM3! A support that reacts faster than oneself and also on weekends. Apart from that, I am super satisfied with the FM3, for the price there is nothing better, more flexible or more ingenious on the market.

Thanks also for the tip about OMG-9. Your manuals are mega helpful and easy to understand. I will definitely test it.

Best regards, Tim

FRACTAL IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!

Hello,
FM3 has arrived. What can I say… really great device! Sounds absolutely mega.

I've tried them all, Kemper (it's great too), Helix, Strymon, Simplifier, but Fractal is absolutely the best!

Rock on!
Cheers, Oliver

GUITARIST’S DELIGHT...A TOTAL UNDERSTATEMENTG.

Hello Jacques,

I didn't want to bother you again, since you probably get 1,000 e-mails. But just one more time: I was already totally thrilled with my Axe-Fx II Mark II, but this is simply UNBELIEVABLE. I have no words for this: guitarist's delight... a total understatement.

Thanks so much for listening!
Peter

I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE CONVINCED SO QUICKLY!

Hello Jacques,

first of all, many thanks for your nice mail. This transparency in the ordering process and these fine little details, like the chocolate, the T-shirt and the personal envelope are just great! Many thanks for that! I had ordered the FM3 as a B-stock, but it looks like new. :)

I've already been through a few things: HX Stomp, I have a Kemper here, but somehow I always miss something that my amps give me (Friedman and Morgan). With the FM3 it’s different: a much more transparent sound, logically structured despite its complexity and not that difficult to configure. I compared the FM3 Smallbox amp with my real Smallbox 50 earlier and the sound is spot-on. The Kemper couldn't capture this amp, the FM3 does.

I didn't think I'd be won over by this thing so quickly. Finally, proper mobile recording! :)

In any case, thanks for the great service. :)

Best regards from Berlin
Thomas

JUST WOW!

Hi Jacques,

I have been the proud owner of the Axe FX III for a little over 3 weeks now and I am simply overwhelmed. The thing is better, sharper, more detailed, clearer, more qualitative, more impressive... than I could ever have imagined. Simply WOW! Thank you very much for the easy purchasing process and the goodies!

All the best to you and the team and stay healthy!
Dimitri

I AM OVERWHELMED - FRACTAL AUDIO IS A WHOLE OTHER DIMENSION!

Dear Jacques,

The reason I haven't contacted you yet is that I'm up to my ears in FX III ;-) . Apart from the fact that everything has arrived in one piece and is working, I would like to tell you that I am thrilled ... even more:

I am overwhelmed!   I was already spoiled by the "Helix", but the machines from you/Fractal Audio are a completely different dimension.

First of all, I set up a few things on the "FX III" to suit my needs, adjusted the "FC-12" configuration and then, late yesterday afternoon, I started listening to the presets; I didn't get any further than no. 0030, as there are usually up to eight scenes each, but I am absolutely "blown away"!

And I also enjoyed "shopping" with you. You were very friendly and patient with me ... thank you very much, Jacques!

So, I’ll join the chorus of the many G66/Fractal Audio enthusiasts and remain ...

... with best regards
Peter
