    • CORE is AMAZING!!
Style: Core
The Core is amazing. First a bit of background. I have played guitar for over 40 years. These days I play mostly solo acoustic. I purchased the Core with an expression pedal to replace several older pieces of equipment. I have not been disappointed. I chose the separate pedal because I don’t like my expression pedal locked in one place. The Core does everything. If you don’t think it does something, you probably haven’t figured it out yet or have done something incorrectly. First bit of advice is read and print the manual off the HeadRush website. I can’t say this would be the best choice for a novice, and it is not plug in and play. You need an understanding of the equipment parameters you are asking it to simulate as well as the the key you are playing in if you intend to auto tune. The unit is all metal except the touch screen and feels very durable. It’s larger than I expected and given the build quality, it’s also heavier than I thought it would be. Whoever designed this has obviously spent a great deal of time on stage. It does EVERYTHING! Guitar, vocals, and has extremely well thought out features. Once you set up a rig, and fine tune each of the blocks, (effects) the sound quality is amazing. That being said, it can take time to get your sound just the way you want it. It’s a bit like having a 40 way adjustable driver’s seat. Editing is basically like editing a PdF. Just remember to Save. It is also helpful to review a list of effects, amps and cabinets so you know what HeadRush calls each of them. If you can’t find what you like, you can download or create your own sound in a few different ways. The core is able to run straight into a powered PA if you opt to leave the mixer behind. Input and output levels for guitar and vocals can be controlled from the touchscreen as well as controlling which outputs go where and at levels. The only problems I have had are some WI-FI connectivity. It actually seems to work best connected via cell phone. The other glitch is an occasional delay when switching between rigs. Not a big deal because it is between songs or when switching a rig to use with a different guitar. It would be nice to be see all effects when assigning hardware buttons, but that’s where having the manual available comes in handy. So far, (about a month) I’d say HeadRush has created a remarkably well thought out and capable piece of professional level equipment for this price point. ... show more

    • A Game-Changer — Inspiring, Expressive, and Built Like a Workhorse
Style: Core
The Headrush Core has completely transformed my guitar rig. It’s hands down one of the most powerful and versatile multi-effects processors I’ve ever used. The amp and cab models are incredibly realistic, and the tone-shaping options are deep yet intuitive. It responds beautifully to dynamics, which makes it a dream for expressive playing — from bluesy bends to fusion-style legato runs. What really stands out is how reliable and flexible this unit is. I’ve built several rigs on it now, including ones that emulate Eric Johnson, Greg Howe, and Andy Timmons — and it nails the feel and tone. The fact that I can stack overdrives, tweak delay timing, and sculpt EQ curves all in one compact unit is a total game changer. The touchscreen interface is fast and responsive, editing is smooth and enjoyable, and the sound quality is absolutely studio-grade. Whether you’re gigging, recording, or crafting tones at home, this unit delivers consistently and effortlessly. It’s also worth noting — I haven’t even touched the looper yet, which is one of its headline features! That tells you how deep and inspiring the Core already is before even unlocking its full potential. If you’re on the fence, don’t hesitate. The Headrush Core is inspiring, expressive, and built to handle whatever style or setup you throw at it. A true workhorse for modern guitarists. ... show more

    • Awesome
Style: Core
I have been using the headrush mx5 for about a year and have loved it. The core is cheaper than the prime but the only difference is it doesn't have an expression pedal (id rather use my own anyway), the prime has a few more foot switches and is bigger and heavier. The brains of the core are the same as the prime so all effects, amps, are the same. The touch screen is easy to see and the drop and drag is easy and intuitive. The sounds are amazing.. I think I will invest in the headrush flat response speaker to optimize. I can't sing.. but I am going to get around and try the vocal effects that are onboard.. I have heard they are very good. ... show more
