THE FM3 IS SURELY IN A DIFFERENT LEAGUE AT THE MOMENT!

Dear Jacques!

The "Guitarist’s Delight FM3" arrived here safe and sound today and I would like to thank you most sincerely for the nice little attention to detail – in the form of a box of MERCI. Not everyone does this, but it's a lot of fun to deal with people who are so cool! Thanks again for this attention!

About the equipment – what can I say? - I have had many things. From Line 6 Series to Eleven to Headrush Gigboard and Kemper. The FM3 is surely in a different league at the moment (although I also really appreciate the sounds of the Kemper, but that's a different method) and I can't get a big, stupid grin off my face ;)

Now I think I'll save up a bit, because there's still room in my studio desk for one or the other 19" built-in unit - so why not the big brother of the FM3?

Thanks again and best regards from Prellenkirchen, in the far east of Austria.

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

 

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

 

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

EVERY SECOND OF WAITING WAS WORTH IT – IT DOESN’T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!

Hello Jacques,
the FM3 arrived yesterday! This thing is the absolute business. Every second of waiting was worth it. Thank you for the excellent and very personal service! It doesn't get any better than this.

Best regards from Hamburg

THAT'S WHEN YOU KNOW WHY YOU STAY LOYAL TO G66

Hi Jacques – I would like to thank you again.

On the one hand for the fast delivery, on the other hand for the accommodating and speedy repair of my AX8 – that's when you know why you remain loyal to G66!

Best regards, Haiko

TOP SUPPORT OVER ALL THE YEARS

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

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

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;)

MY GREAT EXPECTATIONS HAVE BEEN GREATLY EXCEEDED !

Hello Jacques,

Thank you very much for the incredibly fast delivery and the cap that came with the T-shirt. It really made me very happy. Please excuse me for not getting back to you until now, but on the day of delivery I found out that I was going to be a father, so a few things just had to take priority at first.

First of all, I have to praise you for the incredible foresight to include a mega pack of Merci (you know how to keep women quiet ;-)).

What can I say. As an owner of Mesa Boogie, Engl and Marshall amps, all the good "modellers" of the time, Avid-Eleven Rack, Kemper and various plug-ins, I have to admit that my expectations for the AXE-FX were great, but they were vastly exceeded. I'm actually considering selling my dearly beloved Triaxis 2:90 combo from MesaBoogie and all the other stuff along with it.

The level of detail, the response, it’s as if I were playing the real amp. For me, the Triaxis has always been the holy grail as far as my tone is concerned. Over 20 years in use and it has never let me down. The AXE alone comes close to 100%. It’s only the modes of the 2:90 power amplifier that I couldn’t feel yet (Deep/Modern/half Drive) but with some time I am sure I’ll get to the same result. The possibilities in the AXE are probably given.

I won't even begin to talk about the other possibilities. It's almost unbelievable if you haven't experienced it and I'm really very fussy about sound and feel. No other modeller has ever given me this feeling.

I've been at FOH for over 20 years for many acts from small to large and have been running a small studio for over 10 years. More for nostalgic and non-profit intentions. The bands that record with me are more from the up-and-coming scene and I try to support them as much as I can and give something back to the scene here.

I bought the AXE mainly for my private pleasure, but it will make my work with the bands much easier. Anyone who has miked real boxes knows what I mean :-)

All in all, and in conclusion, many, many thanks again for the great package you have put together. Keep up the good work, that's exactly what good customer service is all about. The information that it is being checked, packed and shipped, and all that with a personal address, makes you feel a bit more important and not like just another customer.

Continued success and stay with us for a long time.

Best regards from Spessart to Flensburg, where the driving licences live ;-)

I’LL BE STUCK IN FRONT OF THIS DAY AND NIGHT !

Hi Jacques,

Wow, thanks for everything. As @metalbobby on Instagram I’ve played just a single preset and I’m in love already… man you guys are so great… this thing is amazing.

I’ll be stuck in front of this day and night.

Thanks for the quick delivery of the Axe-Fx III Mk2 and the firmware and so on.

All the best,
Robin

KINDNESS AND PROFESSIONALISM ...

Hi Sussi,

Thanks for your kindness and your professional, was a pleasure to deal with you. I will recommend this service to all my musician friends that intend to buy fractal products.

Best regards,
Giovanni

I AM ABSOLUTELY THRILLED! 

Hi Jacques!
Many thanks for the record-breaking speed with which you sent me the FM3.

I am absolutely thrilled! Many thanks also for the tasty addition! Of course, I immediately started to explore the FM3. I think my family will have to do without my presence for a while;). I have printed out the excellent user manual and will work through it bit by bit. The tutorials on your site are also very helpful, especially those by Bernd Kiltz.  It's fun to get to know the device with its many sounds and possibilities. I will soon be able to do without my tube amps and stomp boxes once I have mastered the FM3 and configured it for my needs.

Best regards to Flensburg

PURE ENTHUSIASM / THE BEST DECISION EVER !

Dear Jacques
We had a small rehearsal concert at the weekend. A total of 6 bands played. My sound was praised to the skies from all sides. So glad! I am really extremely happy with the FM9. It was the best decision ever! Really a super product that you are selling

Very best regards / Thomas 

MY GUITARS NOW SOUND BETTER AND THAT INSPIRES ME TO PLAY MORE AND BETTER

Dear Sussi,

Just want to thank you! Your handling of my purchase of the FM3 has been a pleasure. It took some time for you to get the units to stock but that's not your fault. When they were delayed a couple of days you let me know by email. I appreciate that. When you got the units you sent me the paying details and 4 days after my payment I had the unit delivered. One or two of these days must have been bank business, so very fast delivery. 

The FM3 itself is a fantastic piece of gear. Sounds much better than the previous modelers I have tried. (Headrush, Line6 Helix LT and Ampero One). The factory sounds in the FM3 are 90% nice sounding to me, whereas on all the other units it was the other way around, 90% crap!

One more thing: my FM3 came with the latest 4.0 Cygnus firmware that was just recently released. That was really impressive customer support! 

I could go on with how my guitars now sound better than I thought was possible and how that inspires me to play more and better, but I'm sure you have heard that before. ??????

Have nice midsummer weekend
Mikael  

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

YOU HAVE BY FAR THE BEST SERVICE OF ALL! 

Heyho
Great ! Exchange FM3 has arrived ! Many thanks :-)

best regards Mathias

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

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

THE FM3 REALLY KNOCKS THE AX8 STRAIGHT OUT OF THE REHEARSAL ROOM!

Hi dear Jaques,

after the first test: HAMMER... The FM3 really knocks the AX8 for six, straight out of the rehearsal room... thank you very much.

Kind regards 
Christopher 

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

40 YEARS OF MUSIC - NEVER GOT SUCH GOOD SERVICE BEFORE!

Hello Jacques,

I wanted to tell you that I found the entire conversation with you in connection with the AXE FX III MK 2 not only very pleasant and refreshing, but also personal and binding. It's impressive that you take the time to get to know your customers’ backgrounds. I hope you also had some fun in the process. The absolute highlight, however, was that when I unpacked the device I thought, hey, you’ve even included the USB cable (which is not the case with all dealers / products) and oh, what's that big fat red instruction manual in the box? ;-)

I've been making music for 40 years and I've certainly invested one or two large sums in equipment, but I've never received this "service". Crazy! MERCI!

Gladly again! Best regards
Uwe

FANTASTIC - MEGA BIG GRIN – BLOODY FINGERS !

Moin Jaques,
You are really cool!!! Thanks a lot for the chocolate and the fast shipping!!! Because of the Xmas business, I didn't expect to receive the device until the next few days. And the first impression is: fantastic!!! Yesterday I played my fingers bloody while listening to the presets and I have a MEGA big grin on my face!

All the best and best wishes from the coast to the coast!
Jörg

I CRIED WITH JOY WHEN I TRIED IT OUT!

Hello Jacques , 
It's true, Simmozheim has gone Turbo!

Thank you very much, I cried like a baby with joy when I tried out the Axe-Fx III Turbo!
I have now ordered the FC-12 online together with Humbuster cables. I hope you can send it to me as soon as possible!
