I had my first gig with my FM9T last night at a dive bar in town. What an amazing unit. I still have so much to figure out with it (was tap dancing too much and need to spend some time with setlists) but my sound was superb. The sound guy didn't want me running through the PA, and kept trying to convince me to use his "Peavey amp" that he had sitting around instead, but I said let's just try and see how it sounds.
Bass and vocals were too loud in the mix, and the guy had some trouble getting me the right volume in the monitors, but beyond that, everyone (myself, audience, band) was extremely impressed with my tone. AND...when I'm confident in my sound, I play better, and it was probably the best guitar I've ever played in front of a crowd. I'm on cloud 9.
I'm just ecstatic about this unit. I'm coming from a Helix I used for a year, before that an analog pedalboard. Can't wait to keep unlocking more potential with this.
