Fractal Audio Systems mystery product speculation

[Orvillain]

Whatever it is, I will agonise over buying it for two years, buy it... sell it... buy it again 6 weeks later.....

 

[la szum]

Haha! Some gear resembles a Boomerang. Some of us gear users resemble Boomerang throwers.

Please tell me Andy isn’t a capture guy

 

[Orvillain]

I have no idea who that person is.

<ducks>

 

[Baba]

Whatever it is, it won’t be available for two years, and I will lose interest, and won’t buy it, like every product they’ve ever released .....

There. FTFY

Andy Wood is a semi-famous sideman. He has played for the country group Rascal Flats as well as with Creed frontman Scott Stapp. He has signature guitars with Suhr and has put out a solo record as well. His YouTube channel is a good follow. He’s a big gear nerd and a very good player.

He also uses KSR amps. Does Fractal already have KSR models?

No. Not sure it’s really necessary at this point.

“A Wood” presets? FAS Boner Pills confirmed!

I guess that explains Cliff’s “firmware” comment.

Nope, he's either amp + pedals or AxeFX/FM3.

 

[Alex Kenivel]

Do the pants come in a size 32 waist?

 

[Achilles]

Andy Wood is a very good player.

*paraphrased*

I'd go quite a few notches above very good!

This is a great sign!

I love this guy. Everything except the T-Shirt…. See Drew’s comments below.

Can't say I like the 'nano size' trend, I hope Fractal will not be part of it.

FWIW, I got one of those shirts when I donated to Todd Bishop's cancer treatments and while I'm a member of that group, all I think about when I put that shirt on is Bishop5150 being a badass.

Probably just "NDSP Archetype: Wood X"

I did not know about this. I remember seeing that guy around and he always seemed like a really cool dude. Rockin Chippy, notsomuch, but I don’t dislike RC that much anyway… just that cheesy Logo. It is cool that something was done for Todd Bishop. God Bless.

Given the new products from the competition - I'm expecting they'll join it

Can't say I like the 'nano size' trend, I hope Fractal will not be part of it.
