Product Description

The dual-channel Rook Royale combines the award-winning Rook overdrive with their Speakeasy preamp/boost. The two channels can work independantly or stacked, blowing your options wide open for sculpting that soaring tone that you've been looking for!

Lauded by players worldwide as a heavyweight in the overdrive field, the Rook channel of the Royale offers three distinct tones thanks to its three-way toggle switch: a clean compression-free boost, a classic harmonic-rich overdrive, and a sizzling clipped sound to tip the front end of your amp over the edge! Match these options up with the uniquely responsive treble and bass controls and you've got a super-versatile palette at your disposal - and that's only one channel!

The speakeasy is based on a vintage echoplex preamp, offering you classic analogue sounds with a powerful boost and plenty of mid-range to play with. When doubled-up with the Rook, you'll hear the two channels combine in scorching fashion, with the analogue richness of the boost shining through the articulate clarity of the OD, resulting in unique voicings you've only ever dreamed of! 

Here's what Mojo Hand FX have to say about the Rook Royale

Since it’s release back in 2011 the Rook Overdrive has been hailed as the “New Standard of Boutique Overdrives” and has been seen on the pedal boards (and heard on albums) of numerous top shelf players including:

Brad Whitford (Aerosmith), Ty Tabor (King’s X), Andy Timmons, Mark Tremonti and Myles Kennedy (Alter Bridge), Mato Nanji (Indigenous), Marlon Young (Kid Rock), Mike Zito (Royal Southern Brotherhood), Lance Lopez, Pepper Keenan (Down), Cody Canada and Seth James (The Departed), Ryan McGarvey, and others.

With its Baxandall-driven EQ section and 3-way voicing switch, the Rook’s versatility has verged on uncharted territory for a small, simple 4-knob OD.

Now the standard is getting an upgrade.
