I’m still on a big ZVex kick, and since I just wrote about the ZVex Box of Metal, I thought it would be appropriate to mention the ZVex Box of Rock distortion pedal. ZVex is a great name in the world of distortion boxes, and this is no exception!
Here is the official pedal description:
The Vexter Box of Rock is a silkscreened version of ZVex’s first distortion pedal, highly specialized to simulate the “everything on 10” sound of a classic Marshall amplifier. Use your guitar’s volume control to adjust the amount of distortion you need, all the way down to very clean and clear with most drive settings. The silkscreened ZVex Box has one “Distortron Engine” stomp switch—that’s no typo, but what Mr. Vex himself calls his distortion circuit. The Box of Rock also contains an extremely high-headroom, unity-to-50X gain booster with nominal input impedance and low hiss.
ZVex Vexter Box of Rock Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal Features:
- Drive, Tone, Volume, and Boost controls give you easy control over your distortion
- Silkscreened model allows for a few visual tweaks
- Gives you great classic amp tone through any sort of amplifier
- Powered by 9V battery or 9V adapter (adapter not included)
I found a great video by ProGuitarShopDemos:

Take a look at the ZVex Vextron Distortion Demo:

This is the Box of Rock without the Boost and extra tone and gain switches. The demo shows a better what the box of rock can do!
