Fractal FM3

Kjøpt i USA i 2021

The long-awaited debut of a floor unit model with the same sound quality as the highly trusted Axe-Fx III, which has been recognized by the world's top professionals as sounding as good as the large tube amp + rack systems they had been using.

It realistically reproduces the deep, clear clean tones of tube amps, from overdrive that accurately expresses picking nuances to modern distortion.

It also has 1,024 user cabinet areas that can be loaded with third-party IRs.
