EFFECTS, Recording & Gadgets

These effects units add a new dimension to your guitar or bass playing.

At their most basic, each provides a headphone amplifier function that will workjust as well on your travel guitar as it will on any of your other electric guitars.

However, each one adds several other functions such as reverb, chorus, distortion, delay and various amp styles that will transform your experience whilst on headphones but which you can also use to drive an external amplifier.

Travel with a PC or MAC? Then check out the Rock Frog - a great practice tool on the road, in the office and at home.

Pocket Rockit V2 Pro Modelling H/phone Amp
Pocket Rockit V2 Pro Modelling H/phone Amp

The C-Tech V2 Pocket Rockit Headphone Amplifier captures the tonal heritage of 50 years of guitar amp design. It combines analog and digital signal processing to reproduce classic tube amp tones. A proprietary 16 bit DSP engine provides awesome digital effects such as reverb, delay, chorus, and flange, while an analog front end generates classic amp emulation tones. 

You don't even need a cable. Like all Pocket Rockit products, the V2 plugs directly into any guitar. Just plug it in, put on your headphones and you're ready to rock 'n' roll. You can even play along with your favorite CD. Best of all, the V2 sounds better than many full-blown amplifiers. 

The C Tech V2's amp emulation circuitry models vintage and current classics. The Clean amp button scrolls through 3 clean or slightly over-driven tones. The Dirty amp button scrolls through 3 gnarly, positively nasty high-gain selections. Sounds reminiscent of classic Fender, Marshall, Soldano and other amps are also at your fingertips. 

This headphone amp has 2 independent DSP effect banks: a delay bank with straight delay, flange, and chorus: and a reverb bank that includes arena reverb, small-hall reverb, and an echo effect. Use any effect independently, or use one from each bank simultaneously. 

A digital tuner features audible low-E, A, D, G, B and high-E notes. Tri-colored LED indicates flat, sharp, or in tune. It's a perfect tool for improving your ear. A built-in click track/metronome has a naturally- sampled snare drum hit - there's no annoying buzz or tone. The Pocket Rockit's metronome has adjustable tempos between 60 -180 bpm provides a great way to work on your time.

POD EXPRESS by LINE 6
POD EXPRESS by LINE 6

This really is a great companion for the travelling guitarist. The Pocket POD® Express, at its simplest, is a great headphone amp. But even more, the POD Express also gives you Chorus, Tremolo, Flange, Delay, Spring Reverb and Hall Reverb.

Mix and adjust those effects with 5 different AMP models and you begin to see how much fun and inspiration this little thing can be.

At the same time the POD Express is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand (well a biggish hand anyway) and you won’t have any problem finding a little space to put it in your gig-bag, luggage or even your “pocket”.

Drive your headphones, add effects to your main amp or mix in your CD/MP3 player for practice.

Versatile or what?

Triff Removable Effects Holder Kit
Triff Removable Effects Holder Kit

If you have ever balanced a guitar effects processor on your knee or tripped over its trailing cables whilst performing then you will wonder why no one had thought of this before.

The Triff guitar effects holder places your iGTR/Pandora/Korg/Tascam processor/recorder just where you need it so you can easily monitor or adjust your settings with the unit securely attached to your guitar or bass. A quick release thumb wheel allows simple and easy removal of the effects holder when not in use or prior to storage or transport.

The unit consists of two parts, a simple attachment device which is fixed to the guitar using the existing strap pin screw fitting (no holes, no drilling or glueing risking damage your instrument) and an adjustable metal holder unit which comes complete with elastic straps and velcro fittings to customise the attachment of your effects unit.

Oh yes, thanks to a customer suggestion, the mounting plates are now also sold seperately so you can attach one to each of your guitars allowing you to transfer the holder from guitar to guitar at the twist of a thumbscrew.
