This week’s Free Shirt Wednesday post is brought to you buy Rock Cr8. I was pretty excited to get this shirt in the mail the other day. Scott Johnson, owner/operator of Rock Cr8 has been an EffectsBay friend for a long time now, and he definitely has a great product to offer the gear heads out there.
Early on in my guitar playing days, I use to lug around a milk crate – wadded up my cables and throw my pedals in there. It usually was over flowing and over all was a mess. I “upgraded” to some brief cases, which did improve things, but I’m still lugging a lot of pieces. With the Rock Cr8, Scott has remedied a few things here. The Rock Cr8 does a few things. First off it’s a larger container, that is Tolexed (39 styles of Tolex available) with casters. You can get a lot of misc stuff in there (additional cables, pedals, straps, picks, etc). It has a built in pedal board that is removable from the Cr8. Due to the size, it would work great for a amp stand. There is also a light within the Cr8 for seeing during low light.
Here are the specifications of the Rock Cr8:
Standard dimensions: 26.5″ Length, 13″ Depth, 15″ Height. Custom sizes available
Hinges:Â 18″ Nickel Piano Hinge or Detachable chrome butterfly hinges
Handles:Â Fender or Vox style handles standard, many others available.

Tolex, your choice of many options, some require upcharges.

Now, if you want to be featured on Free Shirt Wednesday.. it’s really quite simple. Send me a shirt, if it’s music related (ie: guitar builder, band, pedal builder, guitar shop, recording studio, etc) I’ll dedicate a blog post about your biz, band, etc. I’ll take a photo with my aging, slightly pudgy mug and post it. Great simple, cheap form of advertising. Still interested? Then check this page for more info
