JRAD pays tribute to the legacy of ZZ Top. El Hombre is the ideal overdrive for those feeling the blues or ready to rock all night.

The classic tones of bearded Texas legend Billy Gibbons. J. Rockett El Hombre is here.

Capturing the nuances and touch sensitivity of an amplifier, El Hombre can go from mild to wild with the turn of the gain knob showing its versatility with each guitar plugged into it. From added harmonics to chewy sag El Hombre has it all. The El Hombre is simple in format but complex in its abilities. The tone section is highly effective allowing you to alter the drive style simply by adjusting the “Bite” control. When you bring the bite control up (Clockwise) it becomes more aggressive, turn it down (counterclockwise)making it smoother and more reminiscent of Dumble tones.
