The Rockman A12-50 guitar amp is a rare, 50-watt solid-state 1x12 mono combo guitar amplifier created by Tom Scholz's Scholz Research and Development (SR&D). Tom Scholz is the guitarist of Boston. Released shortly before SR&D was acquired by Dunlop Manufacturing, it is estimated that only about 500 units were ever made.
