The original Fly Rig, introduced in 2014, was a true game-changer for players in all categories, from touring pros to bedroom hobbyists. At a time when pedalboards were expanding and backs were breaking, the innovative Fly Rig enabled players to slim down without sacrificing great tone, and travel without fear of baggage surcharges and dreaded mystery backlines. Going beyond being just a multi-effects unit, the all-analog SansAmp technology enables any Tech 21 Fly Rig to be an actual “rig.” You can run directly into mixers of recording desks and PA systems, as well as augment your existing amplifier set-up. Always seeking to improve our offerings and listening to customer feedback, we’ve incorporated some new features to follow the same form factor as later Fly Rigs, such as the Bass, Acoustic, and Paul Landers Signature PL1. The Fly Rig 5 v2 retains the same SansAmp heart, Plexi/Cali distortion and Delay, but adds a few twists and turns within these sections. New features include an independent reverb with choice of room size, an effect loop, a tuner, and an XLR Output. Features A choice of a roaring Plexi tone or the chunk of a ‘70s high gain amp tone Delay includes a switch to change from 1/4-notes to dotted 8ths Footswitchable reverb with choice of large and small “room sizes” Chromatic tuner 1/4-inch 1megOhm input XLR output with ground lift 1/4-inch low impedance output Rugged, all-metal housing Metal footswitches and jacks Silent-switching, custom footswitch actuators Measures 12.5”l x 2.5”w x 1.25”h • Weight: 20.7 oz.
