MODEL 301
Congratulations on your purchase of the best TUBE floor-mounted
overdrive/preamp on the market. While virtually all other overdrive and
simulated tube effects today rely upon cheap solid-state components
for their bogus, imitated tube sound, the Rock delivers what the name
implies -real tube sound from the classic 12AX7A twin triode tube! All
the warmth and tonality that have made tube amps the #1 choice of
professional musicians the world over is yours with the Rock.
APPLICATIONS
The Rock adds a second TUBE channel to any amp. Even small, inex-
pensive practice amps really sound great with the Rock. A Marshall ™
or other all tube amp sound unbelievable when hot-rodded with the
Rock.
Using the Rock —The E.Q. Section has been carefully tuned for to-
day's playing styles. Full, rich overdrive distortion, yet clean enough to
still hear chords somehow ... the Rock has it all. Start with the E.Q.
Controls on "5" and the Slam and Scream set to 2 or 3. Then use your
ears to set the quality of sound you're looking for, from current to clas-
sic: warm to scorching.
The Tube—The 12AX7A tube in your Rock has been carefully tested with hu-
man ears for correct tonality and absence of microphonics, noise, etc. It is NOT
advisable to change this tube with available up-graded tubes as the normal life
expectancy is 2-4 years. If replacement is necessary, contact our service outlet
for information.

GENERAL NOTES
Although the Rock is very ruggedly housed in heavy gauge steel,
care should be given to the unit as tubes are made from glass.
Avoid physical abuse. A soft touch to the footswitch is all that is
needed to switch the unit. You will notice the absence of a power
switch on the Rock. This was intentional on the part of the de-
signer. There is no possibility of unwanted power loss during a
performance, and power switches are just one more area of
eventual wear-out that has to be avoided. The Rock has been
designed for prolonged periods of continuous use without over-
heating or damage. It has been observed that the REAL TUBE
sound is actually enhanced with use as the tube ages.
