Tech 21 FlyRig Richie Kotzen RK5 Signature v2 Pedal

Love the small footprint and how portable it is. I like being able to quick grab it and hook my headphones in and practice. It sounds awesome. I was taking my pod hd 500x before but this is so much easier to transport. This is more like having a few pedals which I find easier to just start playing instead of spending hours tinkering to find sounds I like with the pod. Don’t get me wrong the pod sounds great and can do a lot but this is more straight fwd and easy to transport and also sounds great. It’s analog too so I believe it will last a very long time. It’s very well built and pretty cool looking. You can easily add it to your pedal board if you want to add some more pedals for more effects. There isn’t an effects loop though if that matters to you.

Awesome!!!great tone, distortion is warm and smooth. control knobs are super tiny though. very small, and portable.if you like a simple rig, this is for you. my favorite part of this device is how smooth you can transition and control the distortion using your guitar vilume knob. most pedals seem to me as though it is trying to distort the signal with the guitar volume low to medium. resulting in a “fake” sounding effect. if your like me and prefer to make tone, volume, sound and distortion adjustments via the guitar, i recommend you try it.In addition, i was surprised that with the sans amp on, and all the distortion and gain up, i could almost get some decent feedback out of the 2 80 watt roland cube amps i used. Not quite at the same level as plugging into an analog tube classic amp. maybe rate that at a 5/10 comparably speaking. Perhaps a different amp setup may work better.Delay and reverb is good. The rotary effect is cool, really dont use much except for noodling. Hope this helps

I’m blown away at how good this thing sounds. I’ve been doing a lot of gigs that require a smaller footprint or had to go direct without an amp...this was the perfect solution. Required very little tweaking to find a great tone, not to mention being able to walk into a gig with just a gig bag.Only complaint is that there’s no noise gate, but still gave it 5 stars because the tone and convenience makes up for it.

It is what it is. I still prefer the sound of the older one, but you can get very close with the new one and it has a tuner. A little bit larger than V1 but still small and very carriable. Great product

The knows are kinda flimsy, very loose feeling, and the boost knob light does not come on, only a 10db boost and hard to tell if it is switched on or off. Otherwise this peddle is great! I play large stadiums and get compliments on the sound and tone all the time. I would definitely buy it again.

Amazingly flexible and portable. It's one thing to have incredible sounding effects, but all in one unit?! My go to jam buddy!

Exactly what I needed playing in small rooms. XLR direct to my mixer. It’s not a tube amp but it’s 90 percent there. I have used my ValveTrain as a “cabinet” for it and it sounded incredible, too.

Too sensitive on the level controls for each effect. I barely have the level control on for delay and OMG overdrive. Also the controls need to be designed so that they don't move when the unit stuffed into your gig bag. Maybe a recessed control that pops up when pushed, so the settings remain. The whole idea of this unit is portability, however I have found that I need to set the unit up every time I move it to a new location. However, it is very easy to move and it connects quickly.
