Since 1946, Fender realized the importance of your amplifier. You see, your amplifier
is more than just a combination of dials, wires and speakers. Your amplifier is a
musical instrument. And like any fine musical instrument, it should be treated with
special care and attention to detail.
At Fender, we know what building guitar amplifiers is all about. For over half a century,
we have been designing and producing some of the world's best amplifiers helping
shape the face of music. In fact, many of the world's most classic and best sounding
amplifiers have proudly worn the Fender name.
Whether you're after that classic Fender tone, a clean crisp sound for your Bass or
Keyboard or the raw driving power of modern distortion, your decision to purchase a
Fender amplifier is one you will appreciate with each passing note for years to come.
Wishing you years of enjoyment and a heartfelt thank you,
Bill Schultz

Roc Pro 1000 REFERENCE AND OWNER'S MANUAL
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of a Roc Pro
Tube-Driven Hybrid Amplifier, a melding of Fender’s
distinctive Tube -Tone and cutting edge Standard
Series technology. Designed for today’s innovative
guitarists, our Roc Pro amplifiers have what it takes
to define your sound.
Whether you have chosen the Roc Pro 1000 or the
Roc Pro 1000 HEAD you now have in your possession an amplifier of incredible versatility and enduring
reliability.
Read through this manual and familiarize yourself with
the Roc Pro’s many features, then experiment! Take
the time to uncover the broad spectrum of tone
colors available via the front panel’s EQ and GAIN
controls. And don’t forget the VOLUME and TONE
controls on your guitar! An inherent feature of the
Roc Pro's Hybrid tube design is its sensitivity to
subtle changes in the input signal level. Dial in a
crunch rhythm tone with your guitar’s volume on 10 ,
then slowly roll off the volume and listen to the
cleansing effect. Change your pick attack from light
to heavy, push, pull, thump and pump your axe, your
Roc Pro will respond to every nuance of your playing !
•All Roc Pro amplifiers use a real 12AX7 / ECC83
preamp tube in their TUBE DRIVE channel to generate a stunning array of Fender tones from Vintage
Overdrive to Sonic Explosion.
•Select the NORMAL channel and dial up ultra
clean… fat and funky… power crunch… And everything in between.
•Combine your Roc Pro 1000 with the optional GE
112 or GE 412 extension cabinets and get ready to
move some air!
