VOX VX50 GTV Guitar Combo Amplifier

General

While its bite-sized appearance probably has you thinking otherwise, the Vox VX50 GTV is actually a superbly flexible 50-Watt guitar amplifier packing plenty of bass and forceful projection, which is mainly down to the closed ABS construction and specially-designed bass reflex port. The VX50 comes loaded with eleven amplifier sounds to choose from, and the VOX-developed Virtual Element Technology adds another ten legendary amps and a line setting for the amplification of, say, an acoustic guitar.

The VX50 GTV: More Atmosphere, Memory and Connections

Vox have also built eight different effects into the VX50 GTV so you can spice up your sound. Since there are separate modulation and delay/reverb sections, two effects can even be dropped in at the same time and, using the Tap switch, the tempo of the delay can be set in a heartbeat. Plug in a footswitch like the VFS5 (not included) and you get another eight preset memory slots to prepare you for stage performances. Just make sure you don't forget to tune up first using the built-in tuner! For practice at home, there's a headphone jack as well as a line output with speaker emulation, and if you'd like to play along to your favourite tune or a backing track, you can simply plug your playback device into the AUX input. Finally, to push the parameters of the built-in effects beyond their default settings, hook the VX50 GTX up to your computer via the USB port and use the VOX Tone Room editing software to experiment at will.
