100 watts
Adjustable effects loop - line-out - jack footswitch - fooswitch provided reverb / channel
Reverb
2-channel distortion
UTILIZATION
Simple configuration
the sound is easily obtained, has noted that the sound is a shuffled fender original but with a hint of how to say, its a little more current.
it is also striking distortion or you can really go from blues to mtal, never seen in fender! LOL
SOUNDS
Frankly nothing to say, everything is clean sound, the distortion, the rglages prcis are, it's really an amp, I used to have a lot of "mtal" frankly has given!

Wow, I've been super long, what I like is the total cost compared to DCALL style fender.
Unfortunately I sell it, and yes life in an apartment with a 100W amp is a bit difficult!See less00- themaddog
Fender gives OK head
Published on 06/15/11 at 06:03The Fender Roc Pro 1000 has a solid-state power amplifier with a tube pre-amp through a 12AX7. It delivers 100 watts of solid-state power at 4 ohms.
The Clean section is only solid-state, whereas the "Tube Drive" section delivers exactly what it says - tube like tone out of a hybrid head amplifier. There are two channels within the Tube Drive section, and one clean channel.
There are standard tone knobs (Bass, Mid, Treble) for the Clean and Tube sections, but although there are two different gains for the Tube sections, there is only one set of tone controls. There is a mid-shift tone option for the Clean channel.
All connections are through standard 1/4" jacks and cables. A fo…Read moreThe Fender Roc Pro 1000 has a solid-state power amplifier with a tube pre-amp through a 12AX7. It delivers 100 watts of solid-state power at 4 ohms.

All connections are through standard 1/4" jacks and cables. A footswitch can toggle between multiple channels. The amp has a spring reverb, and there is also an effects loop with adjustable levels. There are multiple speaker outs that provide 4 or 8 ohm connections. There is a line out from the rear of the amp.
UTILIZATION
It's pretty easy to dial up a good sound - just fool with the gain, drive select, and tone controls. I read through the manual once, it has some suggest amp settings that can be useful starts, but for the most part the amp is pretty intuitive and won't require reading it.
SOUNDS
Some great sounding tones can be delivered out of this amp, but it comes with one caveat: The amplifier can't go very loud before it starts to feedback. This is probably due to the fact that a lot of cabinets are at 8 ohms, which means that the full 100 watts can't be delivered to the speakers as the amp is meant to produce 100 watts at 4 ohms.
The clean is excellent on this amp - it's the type of beautiful, shimmering Fender clean one has come to expect from even Fender solid state amps. The tube gain channels are both good and fairly distinct from each other.
OVERALL OPINION
I can't get past the fact that the amp doesn't deliver enough gain without feeding back. This problem is exacerbated when combined with overdrive or distortion pedals. As a result of this, the amplifier couldn't produce enough gain to meet my heavy metal needs, although it would be an excellent budget amp for someone who plays blues or classic rock material.See less00
