The Perfect Little Amp for Solo Jamming

The Vox AC1 RhythmVOX combines the three things every guitarist needs in order to have fun practicing: an amp, a tuner, and a drum machine. This miniature battery-powered amp may look cute, but it's a serious practice tool. Loaded with 66 excellent rhythms and a tempo range from 40 to 240 bpm, the AC1 RhythmVOX makes playing along to a beat fun and engaging. What's more, there's a 1/8" stereo input jack, so you can plug in your iPod and jam along to your favorite tunes. Whether you need a clean tone or a bit of distortion to play along with, the AC1 RhythmVOX has it. The same technology found in Vox's amPlug series also gives the AC1 RhythmVOX its big-amp tone. And thanks to an exceptionally energy-efficient design, you can take your AC1 RhythmVOX with you anywhere and rock out for up to 26 hours without ever having to think about batteries.

I have to say it's the most personal order I've ever made from the pre-ship phone call, to the email, and finally the candy in the box. Thanks! I don't think I could beat the customer service even in a local shop

Geat little amp

by John Bockbrader from Bowling Green, Ohio

Music Background: musician for 30 years
this little vox amp is worth its weight in gold!
I can go clean when I need to, or really jacket up.
All the cool sounds you can get with a much bigger amp.
All the cool harmonics... read more [+] comes soaring out.
And if all of that is not enough, just hit the button for the drum machine.
It is the best practice amp I have ever had. When I play and have the drum machine going on time just flies by. It will definitely make a better player out of you. Like always, vox hit it right on the head! close [-]

A sweet tone machine~!

I have tried several mini amps and was not satisifed until this one. I am a Tele player and this one makes it sing. The clean setting is not very loud, but it works unlike others that sound muddy. Wha... read more [+]t is special is the overdrive setting. I just spent an hour with it in my lap and had a load of fun with its feedback capability. This thing runs on batteries? You wouldn't think this was possible. As for the rhythm tracks, think Dr. Rhythm of the 1990's. Not much to write home about, but the guitar tone totally rocks. close [-]

lovin this thing

i would have given it 5 stars but my unit caught fire from the batteries. I cant use mine with batteries only a power adapter. But even given that, i still think love this amp. This is my only solid s... read more [+]tate amp and i really just bought it because it was 1 watt . But I was blown away, this thing has two 3 inch speakers in it that are actually made well with steel or alum. and sound pretty amazing. I mean I am not selling my vintage tube amps but this have some really pleasing sound. The clean sounds nice, you can really change the tone with the gain and tone controls and it responds to your playing like a tube amp does I guess because of its size and the speakers. The amp switches from clean to dirty and the distortion i this is so much fun. I can get feedback from this little guy. Its get nasty but responds well to pick up changes and lowering volume levels. Finally, the 66 drums loops this amp has is amazing. There is 12 funk beats, 12 blues.. you can turn the tempo up or down. And thats the real magic of this amp, it sounds pretty damn good for 3 inch speakers and the 66 different drum patterns are a BLAST. This is the best practice tool that has come along since the footpedal loop pedal. This is a great tool to write music, practice your chops or even to jam with. Two of these in my Apt would be perfect and it feeds back. So even though it caught on fire I am still keeping the one I have because it sounds so good, like i got a special one. But I am sure they all sound as cool as mine. close [-]
