The amp models in FRITZ are as follows: 1. Tweed Grande Based on an American-style, vintage-voicing amplifier with a tweed covering and a 4x10 cabinet, which is originally introduced to the world as a bass amplifier. 2. Tweed Luxe Based on an American-style, vintage-sounding amplifier with a rich, juicy, and luscious overdrive tone coming from a 12 inch alnico speaker, which is employed by millions of artists and producers. 3. Plexi 101 Based on a British-style, retro-sounding amplifier, with an organic and creamy crunch tone, paired with a 4x12 cabinet, which basically inspired the burst of rock n’ roll music. 4. The 800 Based on a British-style, crunchy lead amplifier, with a relatively aggressive & saturated lead tone coming out of a 4x12 cab, which dominated the entire rock n’ roll sound of 80’s. 5. Brit Breakers Based on a British-style, vintage-sounding blues rock amplifier combo, with a warm, fat, and dynamic tonal characteristic, which is heavily relied on the nature of a duo of 12-inch alnico speakers. FRITZ also comes with a built-in cab simulation, which pairs each pre-amp model with the "historically" matchin' cab, making it the perfect solution for a gig where there is only PA system, no guitar amps. But still, we recommend you to plug FRITZ into the power amp section. The tubes are really gonna bring the most out of this digital modeling technology. Say there is only Marshall, but you feel like something Fender-sounding, FRITZ is all for that scenario.

Good back-up rig amp sim.
Bought this as part of a backup pedal board for gigs. I usually use a Boss GT-100 thru a DXR-10 powered PA speaker for gigs, but wanted a backup for gigs in case my rig fails. Wanted something with an amp sim and switchable cab sim so I can plug straight in to a mixer, or use it without the cab sim thru an amp at open mic nights. All controls work fine, with solid switching for pedal on/off. The EQ works well. There are 5 amp sims on board - nice to have options - the two Marshall style sims are pretty useable as a baseline crunch tone and have good gain flexibility depending on style required. You can't footswitch between amp sims unfortunately, so you really need to add pedals to give more flexibility. Seems to take drive pedals up front ok. Mod pedals after - even with the cab sim on is fine. The cab sims are either on or off for each amp sim - red light on, green light off via one press switch. We are not talking IR flexibility here, but OK as a get-me-by. With amp sims off, it works pretty good as a 5 mode drive pedal. Add a good IR cab sim after it and this could be a really good cheap option for recording. The amp sim does seem to pick up some earth loop noise from the power supply - not tried yet with isolators. All in all, a pretty good unit for the money, and a pretty good backup option for gigging plank-spankers. Tuner Wah and drive in front, chorus delay, reverb & boost or EQ on the end and you have a great gig rig!
