A World of Amazing Tube Amp Tone!

When you plug into a 30-watt 1 x 8" Vox Valvetronix+ VT20+ combo guitar amplifier, you're not just plugging into one amp, you're plugging into 33 amazing-sounding amplifiers.

On top of that, the VT20+'s unique Power Level control actually lets you turn down the power amp stage, giving you access to the breakup you crave, even at lower volumes - perfect for practice and recording!

Great Amp!

Loads of Options! Very Versatile! Great Value!

Tough to beat!!

Out of the box, this puppy really sounds great! Many of the presets are on the "metally" side for me, but that's east enough to tweak, and good to have it when you want it.

The sound i... read more [+]s, to me, warmer than the Line 6 Spider IV, which I found to be a bit brittle and digital, whereas the VOX is really more vintage, organic sounding.

This little amp is really quite LOUD (Gig-worthy in a medium-sized club). The 4 ohm 8" speaker has some VERY nice bottom, and excellent midrange presence and clarity. I am quite pleased.

There's a little learning you have to do getting around in the presets:
Pick an amp model-
Pick one of three variations on that amp-
Pick one of three effect variations on that-
-so it is less than linear, or intuitive, at least at first.

For whatever features I may WISH it had, I just remember that for $170 I got 33 great sounding amp(s) and effects, and a tuner, (AND, thanks too Sweetwater, I got the FS5 footpedal- slightly used- for only $40!! close [-]

Own it and love it!

I purchased one of these just a little over a week ago. For a practice amp, you can't get much better! The sounds are really good, it's lightweight and pretty intuative to use. I thought the eight ... read more [+]preset patches would be insufficient since I own a Boss GT-5 footpedal. But for practice, my GT-5 will get left in the bag along with my Mesa Boogie performance amp.

This little guy is quite loud and works great as a regular amp in manual mode. It works well with my footpedal, but I really don't miss it with all of the amp models and effects this VOX amp has to offer.

The effects are easy to select and save into one of the eight preset patches. And, the built-in tuner is another little plus this amp has to offer. I highly recommend it ... and recommend the optional footpedal too...even though the pedal is a little bulky for what it does. close [-]

Worth the money!

I just received my vt20+ and VFS5 footswitch today. I ran thru all the presets really quick and then started turning knobs. Some of the song presets are really close to the original sound. I have used... read more [+] multieffects processors before, but this is my first modeling amp. I am used to real tube combos and head/cabinets. The VOX settings sound awesome. I have tried two different guitars thru it so far, a mim stock tele and a humbucker equipped 7 string. Both guitars sound really good on certain patches. Some are less than desirable, but that is just my opinion. Overall, I think it will make for a FINE bedroom/practice amp!!! FYI, my manual button is spelled "maunal" :) close [-]

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
