New DAR Amplifier! - FBM-100H

[Digital Jams]

That amp is something special, that's the truth. It has a sort of Natas approach, but I think that the Natas is a little bit "rougher", like if you compare an American Muscle car to a European Ferrari, Lambourgini. Kinda

Didn't you guys have a Natas before the Dar stuff in your studio?

Is this Jocke Skog?

Absolutely!

Care to divulge any insight onto how the IRs for the preamp/'Jocke Box' are coming along? Those of us who have pre-ordered are foaming at the mouth to get our hands on them! I'm curious how the 10k point (which I assume is a measurement of the IR resolution) compare to popular impulses, like those made by OwnHammer or RedWirez. Paul from DAR mentioned the other day that they should be shipping out sometime in June, and that they are still being worked on in the studio over in Sweden, so I'm curious about how the process is coming along.

I'll be doing a whole lot of impulses, bith through the FBM power amp, and with a high class SS power amp, to both get the coloration of the DAR for the preamp, and to be able to use any amp into the Jocke Box and make it work as awesome as possible. My plan is that it's going to be so close to actually playing through a speaker, that you can close your eyes and still see the cab in front of you.

I do have a couple of hundred IR's that we could use, but I see it as a five year practise run. These new ones will be something special.

Might not be shipping in June though, but cross your fingers...

And yeah you can see in the video that I'm pretty happy about playing this amp...

Ola, As a musician, what would you add/take away to make it even better?

Probably nothing... I mean it's a full fledged metal monster like it is...

wait, if it had a walk the dog feature I would be sooooo happy!

very crunchy and tight.

Sounds pretty good, but hard to take serious with a Krank next to it. Just saying.

We also had a VH-4 in the room earlier, does that make you feel better?

DAR Update! FBM100 preorders are being wrapped up and will be shipping shortly. The new limited production run FBM100's are getting ready to be reserved for order placement, there are no orders being taken at this time, however we're running an early promotion for those willing to sign up for one in 2012 by offering a free ATA flight case with your purchase. We'll be demo'ing the new FBM100 on Jan. 7th at our Palo Alto facility and will post videos of that event as well as additional updates as to turnaround times.
