Dr. Robert pedal is the most accurate replica of the iconic VOX UL730 amp. Made famous by The Beatles as they used it on Revolver & Sgt. Pepper’s albums. Also used by The Rolling Stones, Jimmy Page or Joy Division… Only 100 units of this amp were produced and most of them were destroyed. Klaus Voormann (Revolver’s cover album designer) has created the artwork for the Dr. Robert pedal.
Replica of the VOX UL730 S/N: 3042. The Dr. Robert is based on the Normal channel of our Vox UL730 S/N: 3042. We traced the original tag board circuits, measuring each component’s type and value so we are 100% sure this is the closest you can get to the rarest Vox amp.
3 Bands EQ via internal treble and bass trim controls. The original VOX UL730 had a 3 band eq: Middle, Bass and Treble. The Mids control is a unique feature to shape the particupar sound of the Dr. Robert pedal, but we didn’t want to let you down in terms of tone shaping.
Klaus Voorman, designer of The Beatle’s Revolver album cover sign the artwork for the Dr. Robert.
Mach Schau! Footswitch. Get more saturation with an independent volume control. Use it in solo parts to raise the volume or just to have more distortion with the same volume.
