VOX VX50 GTV 50W Hybrid Modeling Combo Amplifier

Grab & Go Amp , and works as 24 bit IOS Audio interface

I recently received a scratch & dent Vox VX50GTV I once owned its prior version - the Vox VXII Appearance - IMHO the VX50GTV looks nicer than the old VXII, with real grill cloth, and the front blue silver frame is much subdued color in person The VX50GTV upon initial power on suffers from more hiss and white noise - even with all controls on 0 But once you accept the hiss, and begin playing the amp along with the optional Vox VFS5 5 button footswitch, it yields a wide array of Acceptable tones - I used my Gibson SG with P90 PU's and found I could easily go from clean to mean with just my guitars volume knob, and program 8 separate patches and access them remotely with the VFS5 footswitch. This Same VFS5 Footwitch also allows remote tap tempo They have refined this product category, the VX50GTV with its Korg / Noritake NuTube delivered tones which could easily work for most low volume practice sessions and grab & go jam sessions - Compared to the old VXII, the VX50GTV has better touch response, and I could easily achieve low volume sustain. Now with a 50 watt power amp, (vs the old VXII's 30 watts) the VX50GTV delivered more non flubby tones than the internal 8 speaker implies. It also features better range control of the built in effects using its one FX knob interface reminiscent of older Cube 40X amps And after the drummer hits the ride cymbal once , I no longer notice the VX50GTV's background hiss ;) It does require the supplied 19VDC @ 3.42Amp Power brick
