  • Rockman -Tom Scholz

    I've been looking at the old Tom Scholz Rockman mini amps. I would appreciate feedback on which one is best. X100 vs. Guitar Ace vs. Soloist. Thanks.

    X100 is the best out of your choices.

      Yeah, I've got one of those things. It still works too!

        Dunlop has picked up the Rockman line and now makes the Aces. Not sure how long they've been doing them.

        X100 and the original Rockman (no model name) are the best.

          I had the X100--recorded a whole bunch of tracks with it back in the pre-POD era. Very crisp sounding, but don't expect to get the 'brown sound'.

            Hehe, I used to run an original rockman stereo out into a little mixer and then into a 73 Fender Twin Reverb that was made into a head. Somehow, (with some pedals) it sounded pretty much like the first two Ozzy albums with Randy... Played many a show as a kid with that rig, hehehe...

            Still got that thing running around here somewhere in pieces...

              X100 is the best of these. Even better yet is the Sustainer rackmount unit. It is a half rack space and makes a killer sounding rig when paired with the other rock modules such as the chorus, delay, and /or EQ units. The prices of these seem to be steadily climbing on Ebay.
