Vox amPlug Headphone Amplifier AC30



Introducing the amPlug – the headphone guitar amp that lets you enjoy serious guitar sound, fast. Jamming late at night? Don’t want to wake the neighbors? Maybe you want to work out a lick with your MP3 player without taking the time to set up your amp. You want to play guitar right now. amPlug is the answer. Simply plug this palm-sized headphone guitar amp directly into your guitar, and enjoy serious guitar sound anywhere, anytime.




Review This Product:
"A Vox AC30 that fits in your coat pocket."




Feature:
It comes with 2 AAA batteries that are needed for this amp. It has gain, tone and volume controls to help you milk out the sounds of a real AC30 that you long for. Plus it is small enough to fit in the compartment of a guitar case or gig bag. The only thing needed that it does not supply is the headphones. Cheap or expensive headphones will surprise you regardless of what you use, because the sound is built into the amp.




Quality:
Take this anywhere in your case, gig bag or your coat pocket and you will have a practice amp with you at all times. With a little care this product will last. This may be made of plastic on the outside, with the "Vox" grille, there is not much to break




Value:
For this price and the convience it will replace any of your mini/headphone amps because of the sound and portability


Desirability:
It has the"Vox" grille so you cannot mistake who makes this fine product. It is light and will not damage your guitar input jack


Sound:
The name AC30 is the sounds you will get with the full size amp in this small but mighty headphone amp. You can turn the gain up and the volume down to get the crunch and sustain you want without making your ears bleed. Turn your guitar volume down and the sound cleans up nicely. Play around with the gain and volume on the headphone amp itself and with the guitar. The sounds you get with a single coil and or humbucking pick up will make you practice more without assualting anyone else's ears. You will have no excuse for not practicing and you cannot blame the sound of this little amp. It leaves you with no excuse.


Ease of Use:
It is super easy to use and easy to modify the sounds your looking for in this mini headphone amp. The manual is clear because this product is fool proof.


Support:
Have not dealt with the support of the company. No need to yet.


Overall:
This is a mini-amp I can take anywhere and if something ever did happen to it, at it's price point it would be foolish to replace it with anything else. I have other mini/headphone amps and they may be permanently retired. I like the sounds this amp puts out. The only thing I dislike about this little amp, is that it was not put out before I bought other mini amps.

Vox Premium Vintage Coil Guitar Cable
The Vox Coiled Cable provides a clean, more accurate sound, eliminating noise and interference that compromise performance. Vox uses unique audiophile grade materials and technology to give you the best possible performance.
Conventional guitar cables compromise performance through the use of lower grade conventional copper conductors. This can result in signal loss and distortion that cause lower definition, poor dynamics, and lifeless sound. Vox Coiled Cables use the finest grade OFC copper conductors that give you better clarity and a more natural sounding midrange. This material is seldom used for guitar cables, and is world renowned in audiophile circles. The unique multi-gauge design uses conductor types that are optimized for their particular frequency ranges, and this results in a fuller sound that is much more dynamic and more natural. In the past, coiled cables have suffered from poor sound quality, but the multi-gauge construction has allowed Vox to eliminate many of the undesirable qualities of typical coiled cables giving you one that is truly musical.

Product Review



Features:

Single cutaway body made from solid Mahogany Triple bound body (front and back) Mahogany set neck with an adjustable truss rod Bound Rosewood fretboard with 22 jumbo (2.7mm) frets and trapezoidal inlays Black speed knobs. Black pickup rings High quality gold humbucker pickups help reduce hum and noise and offer superior performance by giving a thicker fuller sound than single coils Two volume and two tone controls tailor your sound Angled double bound headstock for improved sustain Gold hardware (including diecast sealed tuners), tripple body binding and black pick guard compliments the guitar's beautiful vintage appearance.


Now for my impression... I have owned this guitar for about 8 months now and have had countless hours of time to pick it apart at every level. First of all the finish was excellent. No visible flaws in the paint both on the body and on the back of the neck. The binding is beautiful and compliments the black finish well. The only thing that I did change about the guitar is that I went with a set of gold speed knobs instead of the stock black ones.



The tuners are a bit of a drawback on this guitar only in that they are not as high quality as they could be. I would gladly have paid a little more for a little higher grade of tuner. Also the nut is plastic and will eventually be replaced.



Sound

I bought this guitar with the fullintention of replacing the pickups within the first week or 2. I figured that I would give the stock pickups a chance to disappoint me and also give me a reason to replace their dull lifeless carcasses. Well, they proved me wrong. The pickups are not 'hot' by any means but they are smooth just like a Les Paul pickup should be. They have a crunch when a little overdrive is added and stay smooth and creamy when just a little compression is added. They have a great clean tone with a good jazz tone.



Action, Fit and Finish

Factory setups are usually not to be trusted out of the box. I have been playing for 20 years and I have grown to understand that anything needs a setup out of the box. This guitar was no exception. I like my action to be low and easy to fret. This was a bit high right out of the box but the intonation was almost dead on. The factory strings lasted about 2 weeks and got replaced with a little heavier gauge. Like I said before a graphite nut would have been welcomed. The gold harware seems like it will hold up well.



Reliability / Durability
So far so good. The guitar feels solid enough to gig with but I would never go without a backup. That is a cardinal sin. The pots on this guitar will eventually need replacing as I figure that being that they are the small type they are probably not going to be around too long. I prefer higher quality pots in my guitars anyways. It is a cheap upgrade and it will drastically improve the sound of this guitar. The strap buttons are the oversized style that SX is known for. They are enough for knocking around but I prefer straplocks. Like I said though they are adequate and by far better then a lot of the butons out there.



SX GG1 Custom Wine Red


Features:

solid mahogany body,set neck,cheap looking gold tuners,plastic nut,rosewood fretboard,H,H pickup,two volume two tone control,


Sound:

i like to play everything from classic rock to country some shred, and now even noodling around on some jazz. this guitar is very nice for the jazz stuf it is built for the allman bros sound or g&r stuff, it is a little weak for real heavey metal. the best sound is in the clean setting very nice to pick and strum chords on.






Action, Fit, & Finish:

this guitar is beautiful the colour is such a deep red mahogany it looks awesome against the white binding, there were a few instances on the binding where the mahogany stain got onto the binding but they are very minor. the action was a little high and i had to adjust the intonation on several strings but that is natural for any guitar that is built assembly line style.the frets on my guitar were very nicley dressed a little fret buzz at first now after adjusting action and intonation it is fairly quiet.







Reliability/Durability

i have played for over 30 yrs but have never gigged professionaly, having said that i believe you could easily gig with this guitar, and be very proud of its looks and overall quality. no one plays a gig without a backup that is just stupid.


Customer Support

every time i deal with rondo kurt is prompt and courteous i like their service and shipping very much this is the 3rd instrument i have purchased through them and each one was a keeper.


Overall Rating

i own an ibanez rg 270, ibanez roadstar strat copy, olp wolfgang copy,ibanez jumbo accoustic,line 6 75 watt amp, peavey envoy 110, digitech rp 2000 effect box, overall this is exactly what i hoped for a great les paul sound without the overinflated les paul price, i have played many epi les pauls which were twice the price and they felt like complete junk, this guitar blows them away, i know its hard to believe but these guitars are the real deal.
