It is a lot more basic but will you ever gig a nux mighty plug? you can hack it to be controlled by foot switching lol, the nux is a small pedalboard with presets. but as far as result and as a headphone amp it comes last even after the vox if you consider price. man the vox is analog and dirt cheap you cannot beat that

Yes! Tommy Victor not only crafts masterful metal riffs (like this one from 'another worldly device') but he's one of the coolest people on the planet. He hangs with the crowd after Prong's set, takes pics with folks, etc. Pure awesomeness.

I actually have one of those that I take on the road with me for jobs and use it to practice with in hotel rooms. Super easy and heavy with the three modes. My only wish is that VOX would make a tube amp that could give me the tones the little amplug does.

Every now and then, you get more than you pay for. Not everything decent has to carry a premium price tag. This would be great for up and coming guitarists that don't have the cash flow for rack mount effects, plugins and amps. Cool.

Well to be fair, if you already have or can get an audio interface, some free vsts or the cheaper plugins from Neural will smoke this thing.

@@coffinfeeder7732 I think you're missing the point. I just bought this and its fucking awesome. I can sit in my bedroom away from my music room and DAW setup, and just plug in headphones and play some guitar without a trail of wires everywhere and staring at a screen and twiddling about with a mouse. Plus having the gain right next to your volume control is great, you can dial it back and get some good rock tones aswell. The built in effects are limited and stuck on a crap preset, although you can make it work for you (play a siousie and the banshees riff for example and the chorus is perfect)....its just a great toy! Plus, plug it in your stereo and it actually sounds pretty damn decent!! The only annoying thing is the buzz....

@Mark Seymour actually I just discovered on another video (I don't read manuals! In fact I didn't realise it even came with one...) that if you hold the fx button then press the power button it will switch between three variations of the effect... You get a little beep ( or 2 or 3 ) to let you know which variation you selected.

These actually aren't too bad, granted you keep the 'ice picky' tone control down, it's decent for headphone practice on the cheap. I have the Classic Rock one, but I was always curious what the others sounded like. 🤘

Was it the only "chug out of the box" device? I have a similar VOX plug but with kinda AC-15/30 tone and it's great for late night practice/composing sessions so my expectations of Vox Metal were high as well :) Well VOX and Marshall it's where it all started back in the days so they have to keep up to our expectations, right? :)
