Rock Tube Tone in the Palm of Your Hand

The Vox MV50 Rock mini electric guitar amplifier head ushers in a new level of professional-quality tones and convenience for guitarists chasing the gritty tones of rock 'n' roll. The MV50 Rock utilizes a Nutube in the preamp section for true tube performance, sound, and feel. But the kicker is that it does it all in a package that weighs just over a pound and fits in the palm of your hand. If you're looking for a tone that goes from gritty and raunchy to all-out high gain, the MV50 Rock is the mini guitar head of your dreams.

True rock tone

Crank up the Vox MV50 Rock mini electric guitar amplifier head, and you'll immediately feel the power and punch that only a 50-watt amp aimed at overdriven rock 'n' roll can deliver. The amp's simple 3-control layout is very intuitive while being able to pull up vintage-style crunch and searing high gain with equal ease. Whether you want the old-school sound of a cranked British stack or the tight, modern tones of today's metal, check out the Vox MV50 Rock.

Nutube technology

In a world of great-sounding digital options, it's always refreshing to find groundbreaking technology that still adheres to the "tubes are better" mentality. Vox knows this as well as any amplifier company and has been integrating real tube tone into their digital and analog amps for years. The MV50 Rock 50-watt mini electric guitar amplifier head follows suit with a Nutube located in its preamp section. This delivers the punchy feel and rich overtones you'd expect from anything bearing the Vox logo. These MV50 amplifiers are definitely creating a buzz around Sweetwater.

Conveniently small footprint

For an electric guitar amplifier head that pushes 50 watts of power, the Vox MV50 Rock is about as small as they come. By utilizing their Nutube technology and a Class D power section, Vox is able to cram enough power and tone into this amp to power any electric guitar speaker cabinet, even at performance volumes. Not gigging lately? The cab-emulated line/headphone output sounds fantastic for practice, at-home playing, and recording. And Vox puts it all into an amp head that comes in at just a touch over a pound.

  • Nutube technology supplies a true tube-amp performance

Reviews

Everything I hoped for and more!
As a Vox, I knew this little thing was going to sound and perform great, but it still exceeded my expectations! This is a perfect desk top amp for recording or even connected to a cab to practice with. I've even used it in a full band practice! It has tones for days and I like the range of gain you get with the MV50 Rock. I can still get that "break up" clean or crank it for some high gain action! My salesman Ryan Murphy comes through yet again with that swift sweetwater customer service!

One Amp That Does It All
I love my MV50 Rock. I took the handle off, and mounted it on my effects board with Velcro. Now, my rig consists of my Carvin 1x12 cab, my pedal board, and that's it. LOVE, the Impedance switch that turns it from a 12.5 watt, to a 25 watt, to a 50 watt amp. It will even drive my Carvin 4x12 half-stack. Pretty amazing amp, so small, and packs a huge punch. Perfect for my needs. I often use the Line-Out for recording, and I find that it's rare that I mic my cab anymore.
This little cat really kicks.
This is my fourth MV 50. Love the sound of all four. I guess that is why I continue to buy them. Just waiting on the AC to become available. I am blown away of the size of the amp that delivers amazing sound. So easy to use, and move to other speaker cabinets.

Thanks Vox,
Loud Amp
Great little Amp you don't need any box's for sounds nice
Music background: MTV basement jams lol
Love it!
I took a chance on this little amp and hit the jackpot. I play it through a Carvin closed back 1x12, and it sounds fantastic. I have a 2x12 Marshall Valvestate, a Fender Princeton, and an all tube Fender Supersonic. Humbuckers sound better on one than the others. Same with single coils. But EVERYTHING I play through this little Vox amp sounds great. I've started running my Helix Lt through it and am just blown away.
