All user reviews of 4/5 for the Fender Roc Pro 1000

Solid-state amp BUT it has a tube for the distortion/drive, your choice.
Line out (8Ohms mini), send return, loop volume control, footswitch input (3 buttons on the pedalboard, to enable the distortion and choose the distortion (there are two), plus activating the reverb).
Spring reverb.
Not bad already.

USE

Easy to dial in, it features bass, mid and treble controls for the clean channel and the distortion channels, a reverb control and a VERY sensitive volume control.
The sound is five times as loud when you go from 1 to 2 on the volume control!
It will rock you off your feet.

SOUND

It's fine for my music style.
I have a 50W all-tube ENGL amp (screamer) that I keep in my rehearsal room.
I wanted an amp to play mainly clean sounds, at home.
I'm satisfied, the clean channel faithfully reproduces the sound of the guitar. It doesn't have that hi-fi sound often associated with solid-state amps.
It's deep, crystal-clear, the reverb is quite all right.
As I already mentioned above, be careful with the volume control or you can end up deaf, it's über-sensitive. 100W that won't make you blush. The speaker is an original Fender. The amp is made in the USA.
I play Fenders (Mustang and a Tele Aerodyne) and it sounds awesome, not as warm as a tube amp, true, but very satisfying.
The distortion sounds are also up to the job, not muddled, rather aggressive, you only need to work the EQ a bit and you can get convincing sounds.
The two distortions: One is a tad more nervous than the other, which is more "acid," while the other is more of a "fat overdrive."
Independent distortion and clean volume controls.
As for the loop, it does the job.
I play with some delays (dd20, Memory boy and VS h2O) and a chorus, the sound is well respected and not puffed up.

OVERALL OPINION

Yeah, okay, I've had it only for a couple of hours...
I also have an all-tube amp (ENGL), a small Epiphone combo (Valve junior) and I wanted a not-too-expensive amp to play clean guitar..
I'm very satisfied with the clean sound, it's a real treat. It's solid-state amp in the age of hybrids and modeling amps, of the multiplying of tube watts (as Jesus did with the loaves of bread).
The distortions aren't icky at all, they are usable.,
I'll do a test with my band to see how the sound comes through in a mix.
For me it's a very good tool, a good Fender, made in the US and, for the price, it would've been a shame to have missed it.

I have owned this combo 1996-98. It was a light / transistor hybrid model. Fitted to a 12AX7 pre-amp. And an excellent reverb EQ 3 bands effective, two plus one more drive channels.
The production was made in USA.

UTILIZATION

Setup could not be more classic, simple but effective settings possible to obtain quality sound.
As far as memory allows, I remember a beautiful clear sound and a drive quite usable although I've always used the more distortion pedals the second channel combo.

SOUNDS

At the time I was playing with the Fender Stratocaster and I got excellent results. The clean channel really gave a clear sound, typical of the picture can get sound Fender. The drive channel was very comfortable for hard rock and blues. But as I wrote earlier, I was using rather distos or OD with the clean channel.

OVERALL OPINION

Before playing on the Roc Pro, I had a Champion 110 and the difference was more than notable. The Roc Pro 1000 makes it possible to really get the Fender sound for a very reasonable price. Today, it is found used around € 150 which makes it a perfect amp for beginners and only. If I could find one in my area, I would not hesitate to buy at this price!
Really it was a great combo and a great success in the Fender range.

Hybrid transistor amp lamp.

Clear channel transistor
Lamps for 2ch: crunch and distortion

For technical specifications:
1 input jack
1 loop
One direct mailing
1 shipment for external speaker 8 ohm sub

100 watt power.
Exponential curve volume knob: No more than 1 apartment if oiling voisinous .. the rest is linear to 3-7. Beyond, you need a room of 500 people.
Speaker: 12 inch with good dynamics and brilliance. Enclosure that can disable by unplugging the two wires connecting it to the preamp. Handy in the studio recording the Room:
Governed amp with speaker disconnected. Output jack on a 4x4 studio transplanted by micro.
= I rule my amp as I want to be governed.
A spring reverb in good order.

UTILIZATION

Simple configuration
Easy to use
Attention to the curve of volume knobs.
Requires a little work its sound volume is important for the disco (requires lamp), although its fundamentals will not change.

SOUNDS

THEN THE SOUND:

Clean flapping in the rock that kills .... there is.
The most versatile amp I know.
Although the metal is not clear with ... it is still useful for all styles.
Predilections: rock, blues, funk.

Two channels with a single volume damage.
The channel is called orange crunch as it is not a true overdrive crunch but rather a
The red channel is itself a little more heavy, dynamic and with a rate of greater distortion.

It can be used as a booster in solo rock.
I play my rhythm channel in orange and red I go to solo.

This amp goes a bit against the idea of ​​the fender base with its strong character.
This is according to the words of the seller at the time the fender the most versatile distortion that exists

OVERALL OPINION

My first quality amp ago bought a big couple of years for 400 euros.
For blues and rock, it really is ideal.
For funk, ca goes well.
Arpeggios not sound wrong with the brightness of the enclosure.

I also tried a more grunge and heavy dropped D and frankly it does.
I liked it a little drool but hey ....

I do not regret buying it.
Even ten years later, I always use and it has not budged.
I have heard changing the lamp and cleaned the inside.

===> SI buying opportunity for rock and blues, do not hesitate <========

When I see the price occaz, although hybrid, frankly I do not understand.
I know that there is any style lamp 5 watt Marshall Class 5 occaz for 250 euros, but still .... I never sell mine.

I payed £180 S/H from a delear in Derby, GB


Sounds great, the clean sound is sweet and vaigly gangaly, an yet both the distrsions are in your face with out being nasty. On top of all souinds graet at volume 1 or 10, though the people in the next twon might complin if you use 10.



Very expancive foot switch and replacment of the pre-amp valuve is a VERY VERY bif job. You to take how amp to bits.



It's built like a rock, very solid, oftren used a seet, when not as an amp.



Really good allreound amp, any one giging should be useing one

Amp hybrid (lamp and transistor) 100 W.
Clean channel with volume, bass, treble, mid.
Two channels overdrive and distortion rglages with volume, bass, treble, mid joint.
Reverb.
Footswitch for the selection of channels 3 and rverbe.
Effects loop.
Output hp external line out, but it lacks a headphone jack.

UTILIZATION

Difficult to settle easier.
The sound is excellent in the clear and overdrive, the distortion is a matter of taste ...
I have no manual, but it has never failed me.

SOUNDS

My guitar is an Epiphone Les Paul Standard and the sound obtained with the Roc Pro overdrive is rather bold, parfiat in Rock and Blues.
The clean sound is warm and beautiful prcis.
The least distortion for me but the Epiphone pickups are probably also responsible ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for three years, and I'm not deu, robustness and power prices are frankly Roc Pro significant.

Amp transistors, with the lamp (12AX7) in Global Warming prampli for the sound.
100 Watts, and definitely not lazy!
Connectivity classic, no frills ... effective.
Rglages could not be more simple:
- Volume clear channel
- 3-band EQ
- Drive 1
- Drive 2
- Level effects loop
- Reverb (phenomenal!)

UTILIZATION

This gives a good sound trs trs quickly.
No manual included with, but not really necessary. This is the good old rglage simple and effective.

SOUNDS

The clean channel gives a crystalline trs (from Fender), the rverb spring is wonderful.
Both channels are INTERESTED drive, even if I have a weakness for the overdrive, really warm that the distortion. The 12AX7's prampli really gives it all.

For when I was in the buff rock with friends, it was widely ... limit too powerful. As I am rather blues, I pass a Peavey Classic 30.
But there really a way to have fun with the ROC PRO 1000, much more versatile than the equivalent in Marshall, for example (Valvestate).

OVERALL OPINION

I did not now, but I shut trs happy. I have even an electro acoustic branch and I t bluff by the fineness of its clear, trs really clean.
It is a powerful amp really trs noise. HP is a little too prescriptive, but a pulse!
Report qualitprix not equal to the time when I bought it. Any amp with this power quality for the price-l.
I would do without this choice hsitation if I changed back to rock.
I said "ROCK" ... mtalleux, go your way, it's not for you!

250euros bought-in OCCAZ

He just needs a headphone jack and perhaps more EQ settings, but must not ask too much
-9 For the headphone jack, but it's seniority, the key is, and for the price it's going (there are many good 30watts at 200euros)

UTILIZATION

-With no manual, but classical and very simple config
-A noisy and uncomfortable bed if I did not disconnect the cable input before turning off even at zero volume, if I find a solution I will add it, but without doubt it is an old can, if you know: write I
-8 To bed

SOUNDS

-Clear and beautiful sounds ovedrive, noted that the receiver must have close to 10 meter candles
Ovedrives-rock rather good fun, the first drive over the second most distortion is a matter of taste, but the playful EQ j'obtient all my wishes, overall fat enough, the breath, but I think that I must change the lamp, the age must also play
I do not know if that's the sound fender, I'm not going to pay me a tweed twin reverb or a dx, but it slams into clean and you can have it all, very discreet breath
-Spring reverb is nice, light breeze can be by activating
I played with a jet lag matt200, the effects go nickel
-8 For breath, but it's nickel

OVERALL OPINION

Multi-
Powerful
-Bought a year ago
I like it a lot, but I must admit that it is operated in a can in my room and rarely exceeds 2 / 10 volume, but it's sturdy and the sound is there, again with the problem of age, but my budget does not allow me to purchase an amp lamp
"I could already play the Marshall Valvestate 100 watts to a friend, a roland cube 15, a spiderII 75watts and with the same scratch
I think I do it again this election, but with a reserve for breath and my low need for power, but as soon as occesion comes to play in groups no soucy

Semi lamps (overdrive) and semi transistors for clean I think.
Power 100 watts but I read in a test that is more powerful lightweight.

Level connections, see the other. Otherwise lack a headphone jack but hey it is very powerful it seems to me a ...

Effects, just the rverbe in addition to the two channels overdrive (only 1 for Eq 2)

7 for the lack of equalizer for each of the spars overdrive (I'll explain why below), and the lack of the headphone jack.

UTILIZATION

Trs simple recess configuration

Sound. Then clean, it's pretty impressive I think. Personally, I connect over my multi effects (ZOOM G2.1u) the sound is perfect. It gives really great once configured multi effect. It blows a little on some distortion, but given the price of the amp is more than reasonable ngligeable, especially as it blows a lot. In Overdrive, the sound is pretty cool. I play with enough bass, or rather too much and it gives trebble super crunchy enough for his / rock.
For cons, the other for a day I find that the sound changes a bit. But must come from I think ^^...
As I said above, the lack of Eq spar for the overdrive is a bit boring because they have an output level diffrent. A more noise than the "other then when you change channels, ben forcment y'en one stronger than the other ... then the sound is very rough even when, but since I play on a Squier (which will be replaced ending for I hope) I think is a micro.
Reverb level, as long as you do not push the button too high, it niquel.

Otherwise no manual, no need.

SOUNDS

It should Even if the multi purpose behind it is a little simple act pregnant.

So I play with a Squier 51 and I play it with a dja high end PRS, Seagull electroacousstique a good bill and a Cort 12 string (acoustic). The acoustic sounds are really good to quote qqu'un else. It's just trs. On my squier was me. And with the PRS I have a vague recollection that ca dchirait

By clean, I often RULES 6.5 5.5 9 trebble bass, volume not high, like 1-2 because this amp screams littralement. If you are in your townhouse I think you should avoid; j'embte dja me all my house
In disto, disto's not too high like 4-5 and then the knobs on for bluesy 4 5 3 / crunch, ... to see, but you can play stuff quite DIFFERENT.
I get a sound so serious but always crystal clear enough, and I think the sound is typical fender Submitted

on the other hand I do not like the slamming of the cot ultra clean amp when it disables the brightness (the thing that mix the middles and Trebble)

It is certainly the guitar too, but it is unbearable ...

I put 8 because it is cool

OVERALL OPINION

Used by me for almost 2 years, by my Mom before (very little and acoustic).
I like the sound, I love the rough sound of distortion, I think I will change the lights ...
I have not tried any other models, but to be honest, in-store I can never be satisfied with the sound of other amps ... I think I by chance found what I needed ^ ^.
The ratio price quality seems excellent sincerely.
With exprience, I think I would do so this choice. With one more possibility budgtaire leve I think I would buy a more upscale brand to another. But if not know that store I always try to find this amp for a totally objective view of the guitars ... which never happened ...

Overall rating 8

100 W hybrid amplifier transistors / tubes;

So, if I understand:
A transistor-amp for the clean channel
One (or two?) Preamp (s) to tube 2 channel crunch and distorion

Before, we have, from left to right (all the knobs are graduated from 1 to 10):
- The input guitar
- Inspections of the clean (Normal): Volume, mid boost, treble, mid, bass
- Controls the party tube ("Tube Drive): Gain 1, Gain button choices, gain 2, LEDs indicating channel, treble, mid, bass, button choice tube / clear volume
- Two controls labeled "Master" ... : Reverb and Effects Mix
- A footswitch jack (included)
- The power button

Behind:
- Max external speaker output 8 Ohm
- Line Out
- Effects loop send / return with level selection switch 3: 16 7 DBV DBV 4DBV

The amplifier measures about in cm: 57 * 24 * 45 and weighs his weight, transportable rather than portable, you do not you type with 500m walk.

UTILIZATION

Not really man I can remember, just the shots of the amp.

Using very simple: share volume and equalizer settings, we have a 3 button footswitch, 1 to enable the distortion, 1 to select channel and 1 to turn the reverb springs

It is well enough fiddling to find the sound you want, but you can get according to taste pretty good to very good sound varied from light to heavy distortion crystalline metal.

Note that I played over a very long time with an old aria pro 2 rs spirit of opportunity in its very bof and I still got out of beautiful sounds.

SOUNDS

It is suitable for a range of styles: the channels are very changeable due to very sensitive faders, each providing significant variations in sound.
It may therefore have:
A-end and crystal clear sound or property consisting boosted the mids, great playing

A crunch-excellent, everything goes, Chuck Berry to Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton AC / DC

One-distortion, and that is where the amp broke away at the time of Fender usual: he was wanted more versatile and does not nothing good name ROC PRO. It can range from mild distortion, which is already a bit more violent than a crunch and dirty rock / blues, to heavy distortion busy that we should not push the gain on the bottom to play Metallica. It already provides a nice range of distortion, what great fun and still play styles, although this is not the best or the best disto of the world, just a little too sharp. In it the clear and are superior crunch, but there is plenty to do with its versatility, power and good sound that hard!



OVERALL OPINION

I&#39;ve had 12 years and it did not disappoint me, it happens not easily within its sound.

I do not remember having tried tons of amps before, I had noticed and preferred to other magazines for his good reviews (no internet buzzing with news at the time), versatility and its price, I was trying, perhaps others at the same time but I did not score, and it was purchased directly, my first amp.

The sound is very good and varied for the price, a Fender bass distortion is not a joke, it works and it is clear from the quality of the Fender.

With the experience I would have chosen something less than 100 W. Indeed, it is much too big to play at home in his room, apartment, terraced houses even we forget, and this limit for group rehearsals. on the other hand for small concert here everything can ensure quiet from the little cafe at the ballroom, there is absolutely no doubt about its wattage, it sends. Which means that I have never regretted one second, a small amp can be frustrating on the sound, with the latter one having fun.

The only real criticism is probably the lack of a headphone and a master. For the clean sound no problem, we can lower the channel volume and the guitar and still have something good, although the volume of the canal cut between 2 and 1. As for cons channel tube was sound from 1.5 but it only takes its character from that of 2, which is already very strong, the ears are to be held well in 2m amp. Before that it was not carément the same sound, rather a boil dirty fuzz.
Therefore, forced to play loud enough if you want good sound, which can be annoying if you do not have a planned place. To view, requisitioned as I rise to 2 on each preamp, or just above, and it is quite sufficient.

Besides you need to know it was an excellent value for money, and if I were back in those days, beginning guitar and knowing my taste, I certainly would not choose anything else for that budget. I made over my arms and never let me down, I&#39;m really lucky to have everything on a good amp with good sound, I&#39;ve had 12 years and didn &#39; m not tired, I&#39;ll change the quality of the guitar and surely rediscovering. With a good instrument and one or the other equalizer I can get the most ...
