ZVEX Effects Double Rock Vexter Distortion

2-in-1 effects are always a treat – just having more than one option of sound in a single pedal can instantly open up ideas and get the creative train a’rollin’. Two switchable Boost/Distortion circuits are what awaits us in today’s pedal, the ZVEX Effects Double Rock Vexter Distortion, which squeezes elements from THREE other ZVEX effects into one enclosure. This one is loud, crisp and amp-thumping, to say the least…

The Double Rock was originally designed for J.Mascis of Dinosaur Jr, as he requested two Box of Rock™ pedals, in one box, with two stomp switches. Here, you can adjust the sub frequencies (like the Distortron), and you can convert either channel to a Super Hard-On™. In this way, you can configure the pedal to be two Distortrons cascaded, two Super Hard-Ons cascaded (like a Super Duper 2-in-1), or a Box of Rock with boost, or a Super Hard-On going into a Box of Rock. Distortion/boost heaven!

Each side features the same controls – Volume and Tone do what you’d expect, while Drive controls the distortion amount in Distortron mode, and the boost amount in Super Hard-On mode. Use the DIS/BOOST switch to toggle between the 2 modes, and the 1/2/3 switch selects the full Box of Rock sub amount (3), or two different lower levels of subs, depending on your amp’s needs. Mixing and matching and experimenting will garner the best results for your particular rig, but placing it LAST in your pedal chain is highly recommended.

You can dirty up a clean amp, push a slightly dirty amp into breakup or crush walls and eardrums with full-on distorted bliss with the Double Rock Vexter Distortion – the choices are all yours! We love all the combinations and differing ways to coax new tones out of any rig, and there’s really not a bad setting to be found.
