Which FRFR Speaker System Did I End Up Buying? Guitar Daily Ep 146

In this video I discuss which FRFR speaker I ended up buying. The previous Fender FR10 & FR12 were loaned to me from Musicworks and both sold quickly so I had to return them. The issue for me is that I already own a Headrush FRFR-108 so that complicated the decision - but I’m happy with what I purchased.

Sorry about the glitchy parts of the video near the end. Not sure what happened there - first time

Really useful info. as looking at FRFR - thanks!

I’m a professional guitar player in Brisbane and I’ve just ordered one with the quad cortex. Thanks for efforts

the spark cab is an frfr speaker ... it is not only designed to be used for the spark amps. they have two xlr in's for modelers, etc. that one is possibly a good choice (haven't tried mine yet, still boxed) but i generally use the headrush 108's and put them on stands, for stereo.

I use an acus for street 8, sounds great and you can plug more players 🥝🥝

[rsmallfield]

I wonder if a carpenter could make you a low stand to fit the headrush and give it enough ground clearance - but it would be one more thing to carry, which would be a pain. PS - Loved your tones today.

Thank you. Do you like Headrush as a clean Jazz amp (darker clean jazz sound)? I need something cheap and portable. Does it sound good in quieter settings ... like guitar duo for very intimate venues?

[paulbradshawguitar]

i've heard good things about these, definitely curious about trying one at some point, as we always run IEMs this wouldn't really be needed, but i wonder on much smaller gigs and depending on PA placement, if this is something cool to have, or a power amp + cab a better solution for 'sound reinforcement' if that makes sense

i haven't yet really got any definite answer on that, so can only theorycraft for now 😄

[bdeyestwo]

Hi, would this work as a low volume home player speaker using a pod express?

[sunnyazguy]

Bro its only four screws to flip the grill on the Headrush so than your cables don’t hit the floor…5min fix lol 😂 but do you man! Glad you found the rig and sound that you were looking for! We musicians are all tone sluts…lol
Btw the review was really great! Thanks
