Title: New Vox Valve Amps AC4TV 4watts switching down to 1/4W!!!
Post by: Gizmo on January 29, 2009, 12:26:01 AM

These look really promising. I wonder if they'll be as good as the cornell which is very similar bar the tube choice.

The heads are $200, combos are $249. Thats cheap. Was expecting them to be a lot more

They should have released this the moment they saw the Epiphone Valve Junior appear on the scene, modders would have loved it.

considering a dislike the sound of those valve juniors, i'm skeptical of this vox too. however it looks cool, and i'll certainly try one.

i saw these had been released a while back, but i didn't realise they had switchable wattage. would like to try one, certainly. :)

Found that on my lunch break today, rather annoyed seeing as i JUST bought a Fender Champ 600.

They also have a TT-alike out, the Night Train (which sounds like an AC/DC song)

I think that the combo looks great...  Definitely worth a try.

Mark.

They look very nice- I doubt whether I'd get one though as I have no need for one right now.
