  • Description: The Box of Rock is Z. Vex Efx first "distortion" pedal, highly specialized to simulate the "everything of 10" sound of a classic Marshall JTM45 non-master-volume amplifier. You may use the BOR effectively with many different amplifiers, but to get the sound I heard when I designed it, try it through a Marshall at least once. You may use your guitar's volume control to adjust for the exact amount of distortion you need, all the way down to very clean and clear with most drive settings. You will notice the words "distortion engine" on the Vexter version of this pedal (no, that's not a misprint) on the pedal. This is what named my distortion circuit....call Vex crazy. On the hand-painted version, the stomp switch on the right is labeled "ROCK" instead, because our paint brushes are to wide for so many small letters. The BOR also contains an extremely high-bedroom, unity-to-50 X gain booster with nominal input impedance and low hiss. It is very similiar to the SHO boost circuit, with refinements to make it sound more like a standard amp input and less glassy. The boost channel can be used alone or in conjunction with the "distortion engine" channel. The boost channel follows, the distortion channel so that the distortion is able to hit your amp harder (at a higher volume) when both switches are engaged, for boosting solos and what-not.
