SUPER EDIT:
This Cab Pack was just released! Go get it from here: http://shop.fractalaudio.com/Cab_Pack_ML_USA_Combos_p/fas-801-0031.htm
I'm so excited to break the news here, especially as I can simultaneously announce that all the IR's have been shot. The launch will be wait for it... "soon"... as soon as everyone's happy with the pack.
There isn't much I can say about the pack yet but I will be slow playing the information a bit here by posting photos of a new combo every now and then. The oldest combo is from 1960 and the newest combo is from 1965. How many combos? What speakers are included? It's all still a mystery.
Let's start this off by announcing the oldest combo of the bunch, a 1960 Tweed Deluxe with an original Jensen P12Q:
Here's a sound sample dedicated to @Piing for requesting a sample:
EDIT: Here's another sound sample using the "Prince Tone" combo:
It was born the same year as my mother. That kind of puts things to another perspective for me. I love the simplicity of having just two knobs to work with. It's definitely highly sensitive to different guitars. I've been playing mostly my Strat and Les Paul through this thing and even those two manage to turn this amp into two different beasts. The EQ balance of the speaker is very similar to a full on 4x12 and the sound is really fat. It's been the amp of choice for players such as The Edge, Neil Young, Billy Gibbons, Larry Carlton... the list is endless really. I feel humbled and honored to be in the company of this combo and I can't wait to share my Preset-Cab Bundles that match the real life amps with everyone in here.
Stay tuned and remember to follow this thread! Feel free to ask me anything.
EDIT:
Okay guys it's time for the next reveal. This one is a bit of a rare one. A 1963 "Prince Tone" 6G2 that's a Blackface with white knobs and a Jensen inside:
EDIT 2:
Here's the third combo which is the second oldest of the bunch: 1961 Brownface Deluxe and this one is the most British sounding one of the bunch with a vintage Rola Celestion G12H30 75hz Blackback in it. Some people may recognize the mod.
You can hear Tony use this in the video he posted later in this thread.
EDIT: Last reveal!
Okay guys here's the last combo included. This is the newest combo of the bunch although it's still super vintage: a 1965 Princeton Reverb with a Weber Alnico speaker.
I'm happy to announce that the Alloy IR's have soon been gone through meaning that we will be ready for launch really soon. If everything goes well it might be as soon as one or two weeks from now. I'll create a video explaining the differences in sound by then so everyone knows what's included. Until then please enjoy these clips by some of my close friends using these IR's:
... and when you give vintage combo IR's to a djent dude this is what comes out...
I'm actually very surprised how well the IR's work in a modern mix. That's always a good sign kind of like the PR75 in Cab Pack 20.
