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!

    Switched from Sony and honestly surprised
    Style: 2026 Model, Size: 65-Inch
    Been using Sony TVs forever, so I was a little skeptical when I made the switch. But honestly, ten days in and I keep finding myself just... sitting down to watch something because the picture looks so good. The colors are genuinely impressive — rich without looking overdone. HDR content especially looks great, deep blacks and bright highlights without that weird bloomy halo effect I've seen on other TVs. I've watched movies, binged some shows, and played games on it over the past week and a half. No complaints on any front. Gaming feels smooth — the 144Hz panel makes a real difference and the TV switches modes automatically which I didn't even notice until I looked it up. Sound is better than I expected too. I kept waiting for it to fall apart on dialogue or get muddy during action scenes, but it stays pretty balanced throughout. Still have my soundbar but haven't felt the need to plug it in. The Alexa integration is probably what I use most day to day. One time I was already in another room and realized I'd left the TV on — just told Alexa to turn it off without getting up. Small thing, but that's exactly the kind of convenience that makes you actually appreciate it. If you're coming from a Sony like me, the adjustment is basically nothing. Genuinely happy with this one.

    Setup Is SOO Easy - Compact Size - Intuitive - Automatic Device Connections
    Size: 1 add-on extender, Configuration: without eero Plus, Size: 1 add-on extender, Configuration: without eero Plus
    We were hoping to solve an issue we were having with our Wifi setup which prevented us from reliably connection to our two alley cameras and interior garage camera/door opener. These 3 devices were just a bit too far from our Wifi to get a strong connection to stream a video feed, though strong enough to stay connected. However, after install this extender, the signal is super strong and connecting to these cameras is much faster. Setup and usage was also SUPER simple. Since we are already running an Eero setup with 2 routers, install was as simple as plugging the device in, opening the app and clicking through just a couple buttons to start the automatic process for building out the network. Best of all, each of the alley devices are automatically connecting to the extender without needing to manually assign them, so convenient! If you're concerned about compatibility, we had no issues running this with the Eero 6e routers found here https://amzn.to/41kfEv5 I can't speak to all the compatible options but the Eero 6 and 6e routers are a sure bet. So for us, the coverage and stability of the network is now excellent across all devices and we finally have proper functionality of all our connected devices.

    So Far So Good
    Size: 1 router, Configuration: without eero Plus
    My modem crashed a few months ago and Spectrum had to replace the system. I learned during that installation that I was being charged an extra $10/month for my router. Didn't realize that for 5 years, I was only "renting" my router. Which has been an absolute waste of $600. During the initial install, I was not informed of that and I have never seen an actual paper statement for my bill breaking down my plan. My first Spectrum router was very spotty towards the back of my house (1050sq ft. house) and the new router which was supposed to be an upgrade to Wi-Fi 6, was even worse. My phone would lose connection to the new router on my front porch which is 5 feet away from my router. I initially thought that all I needed was an extender and that is how the Spectrum guy and I got on the subject because I am NOT very tech savvy. I had already been looking at the Eero router and he recommended it. I found the one that is compatible to my internet plan (400Mbps) and went for it while it was on sale. This router is very well packaged. Very pretty packaging, too. OMG!! Super super easy to install. Your grandparents could install this. The only thing that I recommend is being sure of your password which you should be able to find in your providers app (at least I can with Spectrum). If you do happen to forget one digit to your password, and you accidentally change your password, you will have to reconnect each device individually. This router was compatible with my internet plan and provider. I'm very happy with the quality, signal strength, functionality. It has been very reliable for the three days that I have had it. I have not lost signal once. Not even on my front porch. My phone is now showing that I am connected to Wi-Fi 6 when before, it kept dropping it and dropping back down to 5G. Even with the 5G, it would buffer really bad. I got this on sale and I do think that the price is competitive for how well this router performs. The app is super easy to navigate and every device that is linked to your router is located in the app. You can monitor what devices are connecting to your router. I do think that this Eero router was the upgrade to my internet plan. I would recommend saving yourself the cost to "rent" your router through your service provider and upgrading to the Eero router. This will pay for itself in 6 months now that I am not "renting" my router.
