Rocky Kramer's Gear
This video shows Rocky demonstrating a Spiral Electric FX pedal in which the camera pans up showing that he's amplifying the pedal through an ENGL Ironball E606 and playing through an ENGL Pro 1 x 12 cabinet.
In the video, Rocky shows his Axe-FX III with the FC-12 Foot Controller and says "I’ve been using the Axe Fx III for months now, but without the FC-12 Foot Controller. It came in today and I’m very pleased. Thank you Fractal Audio!"
In Rocky's own words: "I've been playing with these bad boys lately and all I got to say is, it's a good time to be a guitar aficionado. The Gunslinger is an exceptional distortion pedal, the Mosaic turns your 6 string into a sweet sounding 12 string and the Boneshaker is... the one, it's the Valhalla of tone! Check them out at @digitechfx when you have the chance!"
In this Facebook group of photos, Rocky discusses shooting a music video for DigiTech (who he endorses), but in the shot you can see his classic Dunlop Wah Wah. Rocky also endorses Dunlop.
Interview of Rocky in which he states he owns a Fender Jazz Bass.
In the YouTube video "Rocky Kramer DigiTech Spot & Q & A," Rocky Kramer humorously remarks, "I do things with this thing that you don’t want to know about," while discussing his DigiTech WH-5 Whammy V pedal, highlighting his creative use of this gear.
"I have to have a delay. You always need a delay, and this one [DL-8] basically has everything you need in one. Anything from just regular digital delay. To reverse, analog, slap-back. It’s got tape, you can even do loops. So it covers all my needs as a delay pedal. It’s wonderful."
I use the CM-2 which is an overdrive pedal. Its got basically everything you need. It all,… including a classic and modified switch that gives you two different sounds so I am very happy with it. It’s a very flexible pedal.
Rocky Kramer endorses Digitech pedals. "I also use a Polyphonic Tuner which allows you to tune all strings at once which you couldn’t do before so that’s, very cool. "
Having some fun with his Digitech endorsement: "With Digitech, size really doesn't matter."
The above statement is 100% correct. Kramer clearly doesn't actually play with this little toy Marshall Mini Stack. First of all, he very publicly endorses ENGL Amplifiers. However, he did film a funny spot for DigiTech that has garnered nearly a million views on YouTube that has the gag line "With DigiTech, size really doesn't matter" as he holds up the little toy, jokingly implying that because of his DigiTech pedals, he was able to make the sound you hear in the video through the little toy. The spot is completely tongue and cheek. Kramer does own one of these toy mini stacks and has held it up and discussed it, but only in jest. That is the very significant distinction. By the way, those mini-stacks are not actually made by Marshall. While they do work and you can plug a guitar in and use them as a small practice amp, they're made in China and sold by Marshall as novelty products.
Rocky Kramer endorses Engl Amplifiers: "This brand new ENGL Powerball II sounds fantastic and is gonna be great on tour! A big thank you to everyone at ENGL Amplifiers for welcoming me into the ENGL family, in particular P.J. Zitarosa and Martin Kleine. You guys are amazing!"
As seen in a Facebook, Rocky Kramer's photo-op with his new Engl Powerball 2 amplifier and a Fender Stratocaster in-hand. Also, as can be seen in the attached live photo, Rocky is playing a Fender Stratocaster. His official bio states that he plays and endorses Fender. https://www.rockykramer.com/bio.html
Meet Mitch! Thank you Fender for making me one of the first proud owners of this Limited Edition Honduran Mahogany Telecaster!

In Rocky's own words: "The @digitechfx FREQOUT is in the house. I'm about to have sustain for days!"
This is a YouTube video of Rocky performing a demo of the Spiral Electric FX Black Fuzz, a boutique custom pedal manufacturer he endorses. Rocky also provides commentary about the pedal.
In Rocky's own words: "I've been playing with Dunlop picks since my brother gave me my first Jazz III when I was a little boy, and now I'm an official Dunlop artist, endorsing their Tortex® Pitch Black Jazz III.
Here's a picture of my official Rocky Kramer Jazz III (Tortex® Pitch Black). So, if you're in the audience when I'm playing, be prepared to catch one when I throw them out! The letters are actually stamped with a hologram - Dunlop is the best!"
In Rocky's own words: "Hey everyone, got some news. I've been playing Cleartone strings since January of this year and absolutely fell in love with them. As a result, I am now endorsing Cleartone strings and encourage other guitar players to give them a try. I think you'll find them spectacular, like I did!"
In an interview with the L.A. Times Now magazine, Rocky says he endorses J.H. Audio In-Ears.
Rocky is pictured in this Instagram post standing in front of ENGL Stacks and can be seen in his music video for his Rock Star single on stage with a wall of ENGL cabinets behind him.
This photo is a still from Rocky's "Rock Star" Music Video, in which he can be seen standing in front of a wall of ENGL stacks. There are plenty of other photos of him in front of either one or more ENGL stacks and half stacks, including live performances. It should also be noted that he endorses ENGL.
Twitter post of Rocky demonstrating his Fractal Audio Axe-FX III and his FC-12 Foot Controller.
In the video from Rocky's Twitter account, two Sennheiser EW 500 G4's can be seen in the rack that contains his Fractal Axe-FX III. In addition, a Sennheiser body pack can be seen on his guitar strap on each of his live performance videos and photos. It's hard to know how many wireless units he has, but this video shows two.
In this photo, Rocky can be seen backstage adjusting his Sennheiser EW IEM G4 body pack just prior to taking the stage for a live performance. Watching various videos of his band (The Rocky Kramer Band) it appears that each of the band members is using the same system, although the in-ears transmitter rack has four separate transmitters, indicating that each member has their own monitor mix in their discrete in-ears.

Guitar Amplifier CabinetsRocky can be seen playing through an ENGL Pro 112 1x12 Cabinet in a video in which he's demonstrating a Spiral Electric FX pedal. It should be noted that Rocky endorses ENGL and uses a wide variety of ENGL amplifiers and cabinets. His main cabinets seem to be ENGL 4 x 12 stacks.
In this cover video of the Foo Fighters, "The Pretender," Rocky can be seen playing a Roland DS61. The same keyboard, together with a Novation 61 midi keyboard can seen in a number of his videos.
In this photo Rocky is seen singing into his wireless Sennheiser microphone, which is in a Sennheiser mic clip on the boom arm of his Ultimate Support PRO-X-T-F Pro Series Extreme Fixed Boom Mic Stand using a custom height clutch designed to look like a grenade. This "grenade mic stand" has been used as Rocky's microphone stand all around the world and apparently travels with him. The Ultimate Support name can be seen on the base shaft of the mic stand.
In this music video, Rocky can be seen playing his Novation MIDI Controller keyboard. He's used it on other music videos as well.
