A DEEP DIVE INTO THE GO ROCKY GO

The Go Rocky Go is a carefully crafted replica of our Vox Conqueror (S/N: 2004) Brilliant Channel, faithfully recreating the original M.R.B. (Mid-Range Boost) and the built-in distortion effect, while incorporating refinements for seamless live performance with a variety of amps.

Normal mode (Bypass Switch - White Led): Reproduce the clean channel of the original Vox Conqueror preamp.

Distortion (Distortion Switch - Orange LED): Fatures the original Conqueror's built-in distortion effect, with a fuzzy, vintage character (quite different from modern distortion pedals and high gain amps). 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.

M.R.B (Mig-Range Boost) (M.R.B LED): Switch between 3 selectable frequencies for enhanced midrange response.

Crunch 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.

Voltage versatility (from 9V to 18V): At 9V: warmer tones with a fuzzier distortion. At 18V: Higher headroom, increased output volume, and more sustain and bite on the distortion.

AUDIO SAMPLES

ABOUT THE VOX CONQUEROR

In 1967, Vox introduced the Conqueror as part of a new solid-state amplifier series, replacing the unsuccessful UL series.

These 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.

The 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.

Thanks 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.

ACLAM'S "NOT-SECRET" FORMULA

To 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.

We 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.

This 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!
