Description:  

This pedal was originally designed for J.Mascis of Dinosaur Jr. He requested two Box of Rock pedals in one box with two stomp switches. He uses that regularly on stage now, but we did one (or two) better with the one we’re releas- ing to the public... we made it so you can adjust the sub frequencies (like the Distortron), and you can convert either channel to a Super Hard-OnTM. In this way, you can config- ure the pedal to be two Distortrons cascaded, two Super Hard-Ons cascaded (like a Super Duper 2-in-1TM), or a Box of Rock with boost, or a Super Hard-OnTM (SHO) going into a Box of Rock. Distortion/boost heaven! Whee!!! Let’s go over the controls:

CONTROLS:

DRIVE: Sets the amount of distortion in Distortron mode, and sets the amount of boost in SHO mode. It may crackle when turned. This is perfectly normal.

TONE: Adjust for treble content. Start around 2:00 o’clock. This knob only does stuff in Distortron mode.

VOLUME: Adjust for output volume level.
DIS / BOOST Switch: Changes the circuit from a Distortron

to Super Hard-OnTM boost.

SUBS Switch: “2-1-3” lets you choose the full “Box of Rock” sub amount (3) or two different lower levels of subs depending on your amp’s needs. Only works in Distortron mode.

OPERATION:

Plug your guitar (or any effect’s output) into the right hand input jack. Plug the output into an amp or other effect’s input. Rock out. The two separate stomp switches control whether or not the two distinct circuits are engaged. You can select whether or not the circuit is a Distortron or Su- per Hard-OnTM by way of the “DIS / BOOST” toggle. When in DistortronTM mode, set the subs switch so there’s just enough low-end for your amp. Try using your rhythm pickup with the tone control turned all the way down for a vintage bluesy howling lead sound.

PEDAL PLACEMENT:

I recommend that you try the Double Rock last in your pedal chain, just before the amp. You can set the amp for your favorite clean tone, and set the Double Rock for your

favorite distortion/boost tones. Since you can change the first or second stomp switches to either a Distortron or Super Hard-On (SHO), you can mix and match the two to experience different results... SHO before the Distortron will give you more sustain, while after will give you more amp volume (or drive, if you use a distorted amp sound.) Of course, you can use the pedal the way J. Mascis intended by going Distortron into Distortron or get Super Duper 2-in-1TM tones by cascading the SHOs. If you have other distortion pedals, don’t leave them in the closet! Many dis- tortion pedals sound amazing into the Double Rock. You may discover a whole new love for your old distortion pedal collection!

The best way to complete this pedal is to run it through a JTM45 Marshall amplifier head/cabinet on a warm clean setting (try strapping the channels, setting the volumes below 3, and setting all other controls to 6 as a start point.)

BATTERY CHANGE:

If the performance of your pedal seems diminished or the LED becomes very dim, it’s time to change your battery. Remove the four screws on the bottom of the pedal and carefully remove and replace the old battery, putting it back exactly in the center of the pedal on edge so that it is gripped tightly by the lid when it is screwed back in place.

SPECIFICATIONS:

Uses one 9V battery (preferably alkaline, but the unit is shipped with a carbon-zinc battery.) The low current operation of this pedal’s circuit will give you extraordinarily long battery
life. Current draw is approximately 2mA. A DC power jack (
standard Boss configuration with center negative) is provided on the side of the pedal. Use a high quality 9V adaptor for all high-gain effects!

    Not new condition; not gift-worthy; no turn off switch
    Format: Board book, Format: Board book
    FIRST Biggest downfall is that baby can’t just turn the gears and look at the book. I see no turnoff switch and the slightest touch to the gears sets off rather loud/obnoxious and random sounds - clanging & moos in additions to choochoos. SECOND, not in new condition. I should’ve known this when I took the package out of the mailbox and it started clanging (batteries in). Scratches on the front cover; worn cover edges; not gift-worthy

    Amazing value for the price - perfect for my 2 year old book lover!
    Format: Hardcover
    This is an amazing value! My 2yo loves books and princesses, and I am trying to work on her independence (and find screen free activities). She was able to figure out the reader on her own, and can easily follow along. Of course, she would rather I do it with her but we're working on it. The pages are very thin paper, but that's ok considering the price for 8 books. Just might want to keep an eye on little hands. The art work doesn't look cheap, and despite the delicate pages the books are good quality. The reader is cool, sound quality is meh but again, under $20. I wish the box didn't have display holes so it would be a better storage case, but even the cardboard is pretty good so I can make it work. I will definitely be gifting this and buying more for my girl because you cannot beat the value of this!

    Great Read-a-Long
    Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
    This is a great idea for young children to listen and learn to read. It's easy for little ones to learn how to use it. Just match the picture on the selected book to the corresponding picture on the electronic reader and that's it. The electronic reader voice speaks clearly and understandable. The words are printed on the page, making it easy to follow along. This was the perfect book for my five-year-old princess granddaughter.

    Great for 4 Year Old, Pages Need to Be Thicker
    Format: Hardcover
    I got these for my daughter for Christmas last year and she loves them. The reader is easy to operate - press the princess and then press the buttons that correspond to the page and it reads it to you. I like the variety of princesses included, such as Mulan, since she's not often featured. There was Merida and Tiana as well as the most popular ones like Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, Snow White, etc. The books are hardcover, which is nice, but the pages are so thin and will bend and tear over time. The pages are colorful and the stories are fun to listen to. These remind me of the books on tape of my youth. Very happy with the purchase.

    Great Product!
    Format: Hardcover
    We bought this for a 14 hour car ride! It was a life saver kept our 4 year old and 6 year old nieces occupied. They love the stories and the illustrations in the book were beautiful. The voice of the narrator is so much fun. We would recommend for sure. The price was really great as well.
