In 1982, there was no homestudios, no DAW's, and playing DI through the band mixer was too exotic for a majority of guitarists. So the Rockman was completed by a fancy accessory: headphones! The name itself, Rockman, was based on Sony's Walkman, and a set of headphones was actually the most convenient way to provide quality stereo sound. Stereo was a fantastic and really new feature. Ahead of its time? No. The Rockman was right on time, and arrived exactly when the market needed such a tool. This Rockman Ultralight exhibits identical features to the first generation Rockman minus a reverb control. Input gain adjusts for single-coil or humbucking pickups and variable volume outputs to protect hearing. Clean, Edge, and Dist provide the basis for your sound with the on-board chorus effect adding just the right amount of subtle pitch modulation. Plug in and see if it elicits anything more than a feeling from you. Power supply included.
