« Perfect pocket amp »

Published on 04/20/11 at 16:22
These little pocket amps are very cool and usable. If you are tucked away in your office counting down the hours until closing time and you have time to kill then pick up one of these little units. It takes AAA batteries and all you need is your guitar and a set of headphones. Close the door and your ready to rock.

Notes "Classic Rock" - UK-made Amp Head Voicing

SOUND QUALITY

Vox has several of these pocket amps and this one is my favorite. The voicing to this particular one is the best for what I play. I like to play classic rock all the way up to 80's hair metal and the tone your get from this are perfect for that type of operation. There is less gain than the metal version and in my opinion voiced much better. This one you can hear the string separation and note separation. I like this with a Fender Stratocaster and or a Charvel Superstrat. I like the lighter or mid warmth in the body woods such as ash, maple, and alder. I think it compliments the voicing of this amp a lot better.

OVERALL OPINION

Just a perfect little practice amp for your silent needs. At new these little units come in at around $40 which is great price for a little bite size amp that sounds very good. The tone will surprise you at how well this little thing sounds.

I would recommend this to anyone with a baby and needs to be quiet or someone bored at work and needs to close his or her door to get some practice in.
