Guitarists? 2x12 cab fit in the back?

Well, like I said, I also used it direct in through my interface and studio monitors, which is basically the equivalent of a FRFR speaker setup or a PA.

The Kemper isn't perfect either. It kinda has its own sound you can recognize once you've used it a bit, no matter what amp you profile with it... However, it feels better and, realistically, is close enough. Definitely much more convenient to use than actual amps and cabs when living in an apartment. haha.

My 2x12 fits along with two amp heads and 3 guitars.

eithe way those things are a blast. its tricky because each frfr has its imperfections but ive found that straight to my beyerdynamic dt880 headphones have changed the way i feel about all this stuff. i think the big issue is that you dont need to carry all this heavy junk around. a whole arsenal of amps, cabs and effects for the price of a decent amp. its unreal.

Being able to carry all my gear concealed in the car is one big reason I bought my FR-S. I use a Roland synth - my regular gig rig includes two 1x12 cabs (stock closed, ported Boogie Mk I w/EVM, and GK MB112) plus a Vox Night Train head for guitar, a Crate Power Block for the synth, 2 guitars (Carvin DC727 and ESP 7), 2 small gear cases and a Roland GR20. All are in padded gig bags. The trunk closes without difficulty and the seat remains up.

In a gig bag, I can carry either my archtop or my flattop instead of the 2 SBs - but a hard case will not fit across the trunk. As I don't have a synth pickup on either of them, I only need one cab (Boogie or Raezer's Edge 10" bass cab) plus the Vox head or a Crate PB for jazz or "acoustic" gigs.
