Product Review This modeling is harmonious with real amps and micing. I highly recommend looking at YouTube shootouts with this pedal board. You will not be disappointed with the product.

It’s user friendly and has some great sounds.

Product Review It’s very easy to use. Much better than the helix LT . Sound is incredible and you’ll spend less time programming it. Presets are pretty good. Down fall was Software didn’t work right And causes some issues. You also can buy premade presets on eBay which can save you time on programming. It’s a good deal to get both the speaker and board. Easy traveling. Down fall was no gig bag for board. You would think head rush would have made one and include with this package, Prices are a bit high but it’s a one shot purchase for great gear that should last ya years. Go for it. American musical is the best place out there. They understand what you need and offer great payment plans.

Product Review I've had the HEADRUSH since Dec. 2019 and I am very pleased with sound and functionality of this processor. I haven't touched my BOSS GT100 or tube amps since using this floor processor and cabinet. I have several guitars and each sounds great going through this set up. I'm a church guitarist where the volume of the band can become pretty loud(100dB)at times.The cabinet is more than adequate giving me plenty of sound to hear myself and going to FOH. I have the case for the floorboard but it's crapy. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase and looking to add an SG to my collection now.

Product Review I’ve been a big analog pedal guy for years. Vintage big muffs, MIJ Boss pedals, typical Gilmour-ish signal chain. I recently started playing with a very active cover band and was looking for something that was more universal and easier to setup and lug around than all my pedals plus a stack tube amp, microphones, etc. I never thought I would ever buy a digital multi-fix unit like this, I’m not a snob and try to give everything an honest listen, I just never thought digital would come this close to the real deal. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not the same thing and you shouldn’t expect it to be, but it’s very close. The dynamics are about 50% to the real deal. Dial in a good crunch and you can pick clean or strum hard for that added overdrive and although it’s not as extreme, it does respond quite well to it. I.R.’s will be necessary to the very critical ear, as the presets are mostly terrible. But all in all, in a live setting, blasting through the PA, I doubt anyone could discern a difference. Being able to plug straight in to the P.A. and not have to fiddle with mic placement or anything is a real bonus. I’m completely setup and ready in ten minutes. I have every song saved into a setlist and I can go from each song with a single click. Rage Against the Machine with a Whammy pedal and next click I’m setup up with two delays for Pink Floyd’s Run Like Hell. It’s simply a matter of convenience vs. sound quality and I think digital has finally come close enough to make it worth the compromise. I would not plan on recording with it, bedroom playing or otherwise I am not a fan of it. I can hear the digital element right away but like I said, in a live environment I can’t hear the difference. The only thing that I have an issue with on the stage is it’s extremely hard to create feedback with it. I don’t know if it’s the speaker or what but I’m used to just turning slightly when I want that sustaining feedback and with The Headrush, I literally bend down and point my guitar right into the speaker and I barely get any swell at all. Kind of a bummer but not enough to be a deal breaker. So yeah, for live playing, it’s been a life saver. No more messing with pedals in between every song, no more hauling pedalboards and stacks and mics, just plug n play. For the really picky ears, plan on buying an IR pack or some 3rd party scenes for a really accurate patch, but other than that it’s great. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because switch on the back for the effects loop broke off almost right away. It’s a steel housing and built like a tank but the switches are cheap plastic. A total contradiction in design but not a huge deal I guess. Hope this info helps, cheers!

Product Review The Headrush pedalboard is a great system as versatile as it gets. Great for electric guitar, bass and acoustic as well. The built in Pro Tools interface makes this unit the complete package. Outstanding!

Product Review I’ve mainly used processors by a different company and they worked fine. I then went to individual pedals, but it was a pain. I play different styles and need to be ready to switch on the fly. Headrush was exactly what I needed. I can customize quickly. The sounds are excellent and easy to dial in. I highly recommend Headrush. Plus, there are many YouTube videos to check out.

The Headrush will do what you want it to do

Product Review I've had the Headrush a couple of months now - got it along with the FRFR112 to replace my old setup. This thing absolutely rocks. It sounds great, it's nice and portable, but most of all it does everything I want it to do. Nice clean sounds? Yup. Crunch? Yup. Dirty? Sure thing. Searing tones? They're there. Add in the usual suspects (chorus, reverb, etc) and then add some more (tremolo, pitch shifting, whammy pedals, and more) and you're getting close. I absolutely love this thing - best decision I've made in a long time.

Product Review I just received the pedal board and the 112 powered cab. Outstanding! Simply outstanding! Made for the professional and novice alike. Able to set up quickly and easy to set up patches. The display is brightly lit and the touch screen is easy to read. Makes it able to change pedals or adjust pedals even while playing in a live gig. The pedals are colored coded and change labels showing all the pedals in the chain. Labels are lit and easy to read. This pedal board is ready to handle all genres of music, Rock, Country, Metal(yes, even metal), blues, jazz, etc. The 112 powered cab sound delivers a full range of and is consistent at any volume.

Product Review Absolutely loving this thing. My band plays between metal and punk and being the rhythm guitarist i'm able to give each song a little more depth. On the side i like to experiment writing in a verity of genres from Indie to Heavy metal and being able to completely swap my rig at the press of a button is great. Also saved me the trouble of buying a bunch of pedals and having to deal with wiring them up. Moving things around takes seconds. Everyone has been really impressed with this thing. Oh and free bag for the board 10/10

Product Review Pedalboard looks cool. Too bad the speaker that’s it’s bundled with rattles like there’s 2 or 3 pellets in it somewhere over everything you play.

Product Review The HeadRush Pedalboard is user friendly and really doesn’t take a rocket scientist to get some of your custom rigs/presets up and running in no time. The Custom IR section is great and you can really fine tune every single nuance. Worth every penny! I suggest upon receiving your pedalboard learn to update the software before even starting to program. You may have access to more effects etc. The HeadRush cloud is free and a very useful tool that allows you to download other users custom Rigs/Presets that are rated from 1-5 system by other users so you don’t waste your time downloading something you won’t be satisfied with. But that’s not all, you can also upload and share your own creations and even classify genres etc. Also included with your pedalboard purchase is coupon to download 2 free IRs from the Celestí on download site.. The powered FRFR-112 flat response speaker packs a lot of power and very simple to use also. I personally use both a 112 & 108 (HeadRush’s 8” speaker)

Product Review I was so reluctant to purchase this pedalboard. I am strictly a beginner/intermediate guitarist who has no plans of playing live. I just want to play for family and friends. I wanted something that could replicate multiple effects and multiple amps. This is the device. So versatile. So scalable. It will grow with me as my playing and knowledge increases. Should the time come when I do want to "go live" it is more than adequate to handle just about any situation. The speaker sounds fantastic and makes getting setup and building your rig quick and painless. The online support is expanding with some fantastic video instruciton. I personally think this is a no brainer. Maybe a little too much for the bedroom rockstar. But if you don't want to go down that pedal rabbit hole this is the way to go.

Product Review Killer tone, Easy to setup, Portable, Constructed very well. The touch screen display it's so easy to use The touch screen display it's so easy to use. It's built like a Guitarist tha it's built like a guitarist thinks. With your finger you simply drag with your finger you simply drag your stomp pedals In any order you choose on the screen. No more messy in any order you choose on the screen. No more messy cords all over the floor. American Musical has been my source now for the past five years and they consistently deliver the goods on time. I couldn't be more happy. Head rush, get one!

My Headrush replaced my AXE-FX

Product Review Out of the box it sounds really good. But after I dug in a little, experimented, downloaded some Choptone IRs and tweaked ... all I can say is HOLY S%#@!!! This is nothing short of amazing. I've been playing for over 46 years. For the most part, Marshall was my go to amp. Then like 10 years ago, the impossible happened and I fell I love with the Fractal AXE-FX II. Now my Marshall rig became secondary and began collecting dust. I never thought anything could replace my AXE-FX ... I was wrong. My GAWD!! I now have the HR pedalboard and 2xFRFR 112 as my rig and go direct to FOH. PHENOMENAL!! I constantly get rave reviews from sound engineers, other musicians and crowd/fans/friends. I'm very, very, very picky about my tone and any guitarist knows, and is on a constant quest for perfect sound. Well, I found it in the Headrush. THE BEST INVESTMENT I EVER MADE HANDS DOWN!! You will not be disappointed

Product Review Awesome tones, unbelievable that I can get cleans just like my fender deluxe, and just turn the volume up on my guitar to get some grit just like a tube amp.

Product Review I own a Helix and love it. I wanted a backup but for $300 les than another Helix I got the Headrush pedalboard and FRFR cab. The pedalboard is really easy to use and sounds fantastic. I already owned an FRFR cab from Headrush so I knew what to expect from a 2nd one. I am really glad I made the choice to go with Headrush!!
