Rockbox 100
The Scholz R&D Rockman X100 is the headphone guitar amplifier designed by Tom Scholz of Boston. It produces a polished, heavily compressed tone with built-in stereo chorus and echo, and it became a defining direct-recording sound of the 1980s. The usual advice still stands: for the most authentic result, use it without a separate amp or cab block, though it can be combined with either.
