Match the clean and distorted output levels, or even boost them, regardless of how hot your guitar pickups are with it's independent Volume Control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM.R.B (Mig-Range Boost) (M.R.B LED): Switch between 3 selectable frequencies for enhanced midrange response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrunch mode (Bypass Switch - Blue LED): A brand-new take on this amp circuit, sitting between clean and distortion. It slightly increases gain, adding a slight overdrive. An internal Crunch Gain control lets you fine-tune the amount of overdrive (Factory set to max.). Pro tip: Hotter pickups (like a Casino with P-90s) will drive the gain even further.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout the Vox Conqueror\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1967, Vox introduced the Conqueror as part of a new solid-state amplifier series, replacing the unsuccessful UL series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese amps were fully solid-state, reflecting the rising popularity and affordability of the technology. The Conqueror shared its preamp with other high-end models in the series like the Defiant and Supreme, differing only in power output (30W, 50W, and 100W, respectively) and speaker configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Conqueror introduced a completely new circuit, including an all-new distortion effect and the M.R.B. (Mid-Range Resonant Boost), a feature adapted from Vox prototypes developed by Thomas Organ for the U.S. market. This circuit also played a key role in the development of the Clyde McCoy Wah-Wah. The amp also included built-in reverb and tremolo effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to the strong relationship between Vox and The Beatles, some units were sent to the band for studio use. These amps were used during the Magical Mystery Tour sessions and on The White Album. The Conqueror can also be seen in the Hello, Goodbye music video, alongside a Vox UL amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAclam’s \"Not-Secret\" Formula\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo distill the Conqueror's tone in a stompbox, we followed the same approach we did with the Dr. Robert, The Mocker and The Windmiller Preamp: we got our hands on the real thing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe already acquired the VOX Conqueror in 2017, during our search for the VOX UL730 to develop the Dr. Robert. Now, we rescued it from our vault, fully restored it, meticulously measured every component, and traced the circuit boards to ensure we knew exactly how the amp sounded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis time, we wanted to push the boundaries, packing as many features as possible while staying true to the original sound. That's why it takes us a while to release new effects! We're finally digging the result!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aclam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56379541684603,"sku":"Rtaclam1","price":269.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0237\/5907\/files\/6F2DAEB9-2A40-4B6E-A092-AA893E6E1051.jpg?v=1786788121","url":"https:\/\/randtmusic.co.uk\/products\/aclam-go-rocky-go-pedal","provider":"R and T Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
