HeadRush FRFR Cabs: Massive Tone, Zero Color

Guitarists and bassists relying on amp modelers and multi-FX units have a brand-new premium sound solution. HeadRush has officially launched its highly anticipated FRFR CAB series, introducing two powerful, full-range, flat-response models: the compact FRFR-8 and the gig-ready FRFR-12. Designed to deliver authentic, uncolored tones, these new cabinets combine the aesthetic of a traditional amp with modern, road-ready versatility.

The Perfect Match for Digital Rigs

Unlike traditional guitar or bass cabs that color your sound, the new HeadRush FRFR CAB series is engineered to stay completely neutral. This ensures that the carefully dialed-in presets from your modeler translate accurately to the room without any unwanted mid-humps or roll-offs.

Both models share a classic, closed-back wooden enclosure wrapped in sleek tolex, complete with a grille cloth and an integrated tilt-back kickstand for optimal stage monitoring. HeadRush has also outfitted both cabinets with top-accessible, 3-band Baxandall EQs and a variable high-cut filter. This allows players to quickly tweak their tone for any venue's acoustics without ever having to edit their meticulously crafted presets.

Connectivity is highly flexible across the series. Both units feature an XLR/TRS combo input, an XLR line output for easy PA integration or daisy-chaining, and built-in Bluetooth 5.3 audio—perfect for wirelessly streaming backing tracks or practicing without cable clutter.

HeadRush FRFR-12: The Stage-Ready Powerhouse

Priced at £359.00, the FRFR-12 CAB is the larger of the two, purpose-built to deliver massive, gig-ready volume that can easily compete with a full live band.

• Power & Output: Pushing an impressive 750 watts of peak power (285W RMS LF / 40W RMS HF), the FRFR-12 maxes out at a staggering 130 dB SPL.
• Speakers: It is driven by a custom-designed 12-inch woofer paired with a 1-inch compression driver and a 90° conical horn.
• Frequency Response: Expect articulate mids, tight lows, and crystal-clear highs ranging from 50 Hz to 20 kHz.
• Size & Weight: Measuring 18.4" x 19.1" x 9.6", this robust wooden cabinet delivers incredible projection, though players should be prepared for its substantial weight of 40.79 lb (18.5 kg).

HeadRush FRFR-8: Compact & Punchy

For players who want full-range clarity without committing to a bulky rig, the FRFR-8 CAB comes in at a highly accessible £279.00. It is the ultimate space-saving solution for home practice, studio sessions, and smaller gigs.

• Power & Output: Despite its smaller footprint, it packs a serious punch with 480 watts of peak power (200W RMS LF / 40W RMS HF) and a maximum output of 125 dB SPL.
• Speakers: The FRFR-8 uses a custom-designed 8-inch low-frequency driver, along with the same 1-inch compression driver and 90° conical horn found in the larger model.
• Frequency Response: It boasts a wide, even frequency response of 60 Hz to 20 kHz, ensuring your presets sound consistent both on and off-axis.
• Size & Weight: Highly portable, the FRFR-8 measures just 14.3" x 14.1" x 8.5" and weighs a manageable 24.25 lb.

A New Standard for Modelers

The amplifier market is highly competitive, but the new HeadRush FRFR CAB series makes a strong case for itself.

By successfully merging the tactile feel, practicality, and stage look of a traditional guitar cabinet with the pristine, flat-response audio required by today's leading multi-FX units, HeadRush has delivered two exceptional monitoring solutions. Whether you opt for the portable 8-inch model or the earth-shaking 12-inch version, your digital rig has never sounded better.
