The Tone Master FR-12 is a full range, flat response powered speaker designed for use with today's digital guitar amp modelers and profilers. Tone Master FR-12 delivers clear and accurate sound reproduction and perfectly replicates every detail of the amp and effect models. They're the ultimate companion to Tone Master Pro and the ideal solution for players who use modelers at home or on stage.

The Tone Master FR-12 features an integrated 1,000-watt power amp that delivers the volume and headroom needed for even the most demanding live performance. The 3-band active EQ and high frequency cut control allow players to fine tune their stage tone without altering the line output signal. Plus, the design of the FR series was inspired by classic Fender amplifiers for an authentic backline look and feel.

Q & A


Question: Can this be used with bass as well as guitar?
- asked on Dec 11, 2023
Answer: It's really intended for guitar. It's not impossible to plug a bass into this amp but it is not recommended and wouldn't give the bass its ideal sound.

Answer: Have done rehearsals with the Tone master pro + the Fr-12 signal chain is pre fx such as compression / OD / Fuzz than the tube or studio preamp / I used an impulse response for a bass cab and I used the high and low pass filters to ensure we only sent signals that were bass friendly to the Fr-12 easily kept up with my 400w Bass head and 2x10 Cabinet and this also made it easier because I play bass on some tracks and second guitar on others so it allows for a really easy transition. TLDR: it works fine for bass if you have the correct input.

I picked this up a couple weeks ago and it sounds beautiful with my FM9 that I picked up just before the FR12.

Great tone at any volume Tone stack for room adjustments High cut to remove unwanted top end Sounds and feels like a guitar cabinet when paired with a modeling unit! (Tested with Fender tone master, helix, headrush) Con = small amount of hiss that is mainly propagated through the 1 inch driver (it might be possible to come thru the 12 inch speaker but it's doubtful because thier is a crossover installed that takes effect at 2.8khz with a fairly steep curve once you pass 6khz) this has been identified as a problem with the op eq in the tone stacks...seems they have 4 per channel and that causes feedback. The fix = raise the high cut to 11 o'clock and the his disappears. Since your cutting around 2.8-3khz just add a small EQ bump back on your modeling unit and the hum stays away since it originally comes from the tone stack. Tldr; I will keep this FR12 it's insanely good at sounding like an amp in the room!

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
