All The Frank Brothers Guitars // Check Out 8 Unique Custom Shop Builds [Remastered]
Eight Frank Brothers guitars, one studio session, every tone from clean to cranked to full pedalboard. Welcome back to Edge of Breakup.
In this episode the Frank Brothers Guitar Company collection takes center stage — all three Frank Brothers models (Arcade, Signature, Ultra Light) across eight distinct builds, into the Benson Amps Monarch and Benson 2x12" with the Benson Tall Bird in the Boss Waza Tube Amp Expander effects loop. The full pedalboard features the R2R Electric Supa MKII Fuzz Professional, Lauren Audio Aerocomet, Browne Amplification Protein, Effectrode Tube Vibe, and Meris LVX Delay.
One of the hardest decisions when ordering a custom boutique guitar is knowing which direction to go — solid body, chambered, semi-hollow, pickup combinations, bridge style, finish, binding, tuners. It's endless and fun, especially when you're ordering without having played one first. This video is my attempt to give you as broad a picture as possible across the full Frank Brothers lineup.
