More About This Video:
Fortus goes on to say, “These work perfectly for me especially in the Guns N’ Roses scenario where I’m using sort of a low gain amp with more of a higher gain amp and Slash is playing Les Pauls and this (Falcon) seems to really balance that nicely," he said. "It adds a lot of low end and top end and brightness and charm to the guitar but still really heavy, and I have not had any issues with feedback. It’s been great.

“They’re incredibly powerful and cut through a mix really well and the way they frame other guitar tones is really cool. They really work well together.”
