The Tech 21 SansAmp Richie Kotzen Fly Rig 5 V3 features a powerful all-analogue SansAmp section that delivers warm, tube-amp inspired clean tones. With its versatile 3-band active EQ, you can precisely sculpt your sound to suit any playing style or musical genre. If you want pristine cleans or just a touch of warmth, this section gives you an array of clean tones to explore, perfecting your sound. You can achieve classic clean amp tones without the bulk of traditional gear with this compact Fly Rig, thanks to tech 21's trusted legacy of making faultless multi-effects pedals.
The iconic OMG overdrive section, based on Richie Kotzen's renowned OMG pedal, enhances your tone like never before. From subtle, bluesy overdrive to more aggressive, heavily saturated tones, it'll spice up your rhythm and lead playing. A dedicated Fuzz switch transforms the overdrive into a thicker, woollier fuzz-style, greatly enhancing the character and expression of your tone. You can play it cool, adding some extra grit to clean amp tones, or intensify your sound by pushing dirty amp tones to their limit - the possibilities are endless with this compact Kotzen Fly rig.
The switchable Pre/Post Boost adds another layer of control to your sound, offering increased drive and distortion when placed before the overdrive section, or a volume boost when placed after. This feature gives your solos the extra punch they need to cut through the mix. Even simple fills and lead sections are boosted with this rig, letting you add a host of expressive effects in a way that caters to your playing. You're the master of your tone, with the ability to traverse a range of genres from blues to hard rock like Kotzen himself. This Tech 21 SansAmp gives you an impeccably accurate simulation of Richie Kotzen's sound.
The addition of an effects loop sets the RK5 V3 facilitates a seamless integration of external pedals or processors into your signal chain. This ensures your favourite effects can be used without compromising tone quality or clarity. Combined with onboard reverb and tap tempo delay, you get access to rich, atmospheric soundscapes that take your playing to another level. The RK5 V3 gives you all the tones of complex rigs in one compact, effects expanding package.
