Received mine last week. Long time tube amp user, but this thing absolutely nails the tone and feel. Edge of breakup tones have been spot on with minor amp tweaking. First fractal product and I couldn't be happier.
There is already an FM4 waitlist??????May 9 2020 here. Maybe they'll let us just transfer our position into the FM4 waitlist
I had a few rehearsals and shows coming up this week, so bought myself a POD GO. I hope I get my invite in time to order the FM3 and return the POD GO, else I’ll have to just bear the loss
I sold my Headrush a month or so back when the waitlist started flying. Now I’m using Amplitube. Yuck.I know how you feel. When the list started really flying by, I sold most of my pedals. I still have my old POD HD300, but that's about it. And that's only because it's been for sale and no one wants it.... My wife's going on a weeklong trip in a month. I really hope I have it by then. It was going to be my window to totally geek out on the FM3.
I've been using fender models the most, primarily the super reverb. Although, the chieftain and Friedman hbe have been drawing me in a lot. It took a couple of days to get the hang of the layout, but once I did it's been smooth sailing. I find the UI to be really easy to use, even for someone like myself who isn't the most adept at digital modelers. Reading through yek's guide has been really helpful. I've been lurking on this forum since they announced the fm3, and there's been a lot of useful info on here, as well. Playing through even a modest frfr, the headrush 112, I've been able to get nothing but great tones out of it so far. Im sure you'll dig it once you finally get it.Received mine last week.

To Fordperfect. Good to know... hope to get off the waitlist this week.
What amp/speaker are you using ?
Thanks
Could be worse. You could be using the bean (red and/or blue)I sold my Headrush a month or so back when the waitlist started flying. Now I’m using Amplitube. Yuck.
it stopped on feb 12 invites. unless they're doing a revision/upgrade of the product i don't think it should take that long. probably a week MAX
According to FretnWhip in the thread "Has anyone else been on the waiting list for well over 6 months now", he got on the list 2/20/20 and got his invite. So it appears to be moving along
I'm pretty sure FretnWhip was mistaken regarding his waitlist signup date. He said he got his invite the week of September 7-11, while the "now serving" date was still February 12, 2020 as of Tuesday September 15. Something doesn't add up there...According to FretnWhip in the thread "Has anyone else been on the waiting list for well over 6 months now", he got on the list 2/20/20 and got his invite.

Pretty sure this was a typo. Now serving is still 2/12 as far as this forum is concerned. We have someone here who was waitlisted 2/13 and he is yet to receive his invite.According to FretnWhip in the thread "Has anyone else been on the waiting list for well over 6 months now", he got on the list 2/20/20 and got his invite.
