Is Vox good for punk?īut, if you’re really digging the Vox thing, they can get some decent gain on their own and even more so if you push the front end with a tube screamer pedal. Then push the push-to-talk key or menu option to go to the next feature, and your VOX setting will be activated. To set VOX sensitivity, find the VOX function from the menu, and then select the desired level of sensitivity for your environment. That’s because They mostly don’t have enough low end and high gain that is needed for the characteristic “chuggy” sound of metal guitar. Secondly, can Vox play metal? Vox Amps are generally not ideal for Metal music. > Click to read more << Also, are Vox amps still made in England?Įngineered and built from the ground up entirely in the U.K., these amps are completely hand-wired using only the finest available components. Emitting piercing highs with a smooth and slightly loose mid-range the tone of a crunchy AC30 or AC15 combo is quite unmistakable and hard to replicate with another amplifier. Multiple tweeds, multiple Blackfaces, a couple Silverfaces (I think).then a bit less of the “other” amps, so AC30 clean/dirt, Plexi, JCM800, Fender super sonic (high gain), a MB, a EVH, and a flat JazzMaster.Although their cleans are excellent, many iconic guitarists have relied on Vox amps for the aggressive sounds that they’re capable of too. Pretty cool amp, especially for the price.īut if you really like the Champion 100 & want that “blues sound”, maybe that’s the better bet as 8 of the 16 amp models are “classic fender amps” that’ll really go a long way towards that sound. On mine, I really just used a little bit of delay or reverb

You said you’re after that warm 60s blues tone.having a Blues Driver will help with that.esp using the tweed, Blackface, Dumble CL, AC15/30, etc.Īlso, it has nice fx: autowah, comp, comp+chorus, comp+phase, chorus+delay, chorus+reverb, flange+reverb, trem+reverb, rotary+reverb, delay, reverb. In terms of the preset amps, you get a pretty cool and comprehensive set of “important amp sounds” modeling.
Those amps are amazing, etc.but they’re pretty expensive/out of reach for a lot of people -vs- the modeling amps from various companies that are more affordable and give their take on some of these iconic amps
Are vox amps for pussies code#
Just like you wouldn’t hear people talk about the Marshall Code like they would the JTM45/1959SLP/2203/etc or the Fender Mustang like they would the Bassman/Twin Reverb/etc. that’s because the AC15/30 are Vox’s bread & butter, whoa amps.their reputation-defining amps.Īnd the AD50VT is their take on the modeling amp. Ime, thats kinda “eh”.but still kinda cool.Īll the r/guitar threads on VOX amps seem to be talking about the AC15/AC30s with no mention of the AD50VT
They are marketed as having a real tube in the power amp. I have a descendant of that line that came out a few years later. The Peavy bandit 112 would be my choice if I made the purchase today since it is inexpensive, sounds decent and I don't really see a bad word spoken about them anywhere online. What's the catch here? All the r/guitar threads on VOX amps seem to be talking about the AC15/AC30s with no mention of the AD50VT. I am seeing the VOX AD50VT 212 sold for around $150 used everywhere online. The Fender Champion 100 so far has the best sound I have played on, but $380 would be the higher end of my price range. Looking at solid state and vale amps(prefer a valve of course but heavier, more $$$ and more maintenance). I'll be sitting back and hoping to strike at the perfect time. Under $350 preferably and yes that is unfortunately an extremely low amount to work with.

Looking to practice at home, full band jam sessions, and hopefully gig with it. I currently have a Boss Blues Driver BD-2 pedal. Really hoping to capture that warm 60s blues sound. Just made the purchase for a 2007 Sunburst Mexican Strat (lefty), it will be here next week! Can we talk amps? I have questions! I have been playing acoustics for the last 15 years and am finally making the plunge into the electric game and all its glory/gear jargon/science.
