MGR/El Monkey « Digitech RP100 »
Published on 12/04/01 at 15:00I acquired this fine piece of equipment from Academy Of Sound in Manchester for £90
The features i like about this equipment is that it has a metal case which makes this a very durable and reliable piece of equipment because if any of you guys are as heavy footed as me you're gonna need it. The Digitech RP100 has a total of 80 different effects and is very easy to use and adjust. The many effects range from Tremolo, Vibrato ,AutoYah ,Ping-Pong Delay, Chorus and Detune (one of my favourites especially with a bit of chorus). There are a total of 9 amp modellings on it these range from a rectifier based on a mesa bogie double rectifier (sounds really cool), an amp called the high gain which gives a lot of extra distortion also a fuzz box which gives a classic sound, there are also clean amp models based on amps by fender and one which makes your electric guitar sound like an acoustic. The other cool things about the RP100 is that if you have a single coil guitar you can change the sound to a humbucker and vice-versa if you have humbucking pickups. There are a lot of extra things you can alter like the mic setup this allows you to get the extreme heavy sound you get when you mic up your amp or if you prefer you can get nice bright sound out of it. Finally there is a chromatic tuner built in so you can easily stay in tune or alter it if you wish.
The only thing i dislike about this is that it doesnt come with wah wah but hey for £90 come on thats life.
The design is very simple and sturdy as Im over six foot weigh as much as a baby dinosaur and still havent come close to breaking it.
You might be thinking all that technology is going to make it sound like a computer not a guitar but it realy does work thats why its getting the top score sa it really is that good and the only way youre gonna find out yourself so go on ......hours of noodlin' await
