Vox VT50 Modeling Guitar Combo Amp
The Vox Valvetronix VT50 modeling guitar amplifier combo packs an astounding amount of great amp and effects models into a compact combo with plenty of power! The 50-watt Valvetronix VT50 includes 22 amp models, 12 effects (including independent reverb), and a total of 66 presets for tonal flexibility onstage, in the studio, or in the practice room.
Its onboard 12AX7 tube gives you tube amp response - and you can even choose the output wattage to take advantage of those characteristics at low volumes. Its 1 x 12" speaker configuration and light weight make the Valvetronix VT50 easy to transport, too.
Sixty-six preset programs including "song presets" that simulate the sounds of famous guitarists!
For each amp model, the VT series provides a "song preset" that simulates the guitar sound of a famous guitarist, giving you a total of twenty-two such presets. These song presets make it easy to instantly obtain the guitar sound of well-known songs everyone has heard.
Each amp model also has a "basic preset" that represents the most typical settings, as well as an "effected preset" that takes full advantage of the effects, totaling forty-four presets. Together with the song presets, you have a total of sixty-six preset programs. Of course, you can also save your own favorite edited programs as one of eight user programs.
Twenty-two amp models use high-quality modeling technology
Another indispensible aspect of the Valvetronix series is the modeling technology that is the source of its diverse amp sounds. The sounds of twenty-two tube amps sought-after by the guitarists are built in, including vintage amps that are now hard to find, as well costly boutique amps. The coverage includes not only vintage types, but also the latest high-gain types, accommodating a wide variety of playing techniques and styles.
Twelve high-quality effects deliver the essentials with plenty of variation
Effects are an important part of creating your guitar sound. The VT series contains twelve effects with quality rivaling that of dedicated stand-alone processors, ranging from familiar standards to fresh new types. Of these, the reverb effect is always available, and three of the other eleven types are composite effects that allow up to three effects to be used simultaneously.
Noise reduction can also be used at the same time. Each effect has multiple parameters that you can adjust to create the precise sound you want. There's also a tap switch that makes it easy to set the delay time or modulation speed. Independent reverb is provided, giving you an even broader range of sound-creating possibilities.
