They make their own amps up from scratch and mod others.

The V-Plex is a replica of the best plexi they found with a MV installed and top notch components!!

like I said to you at the weekend, I think Voodoo amps are great, but that one is a pointless purchase for someone in the UK - it's just a 2203 Marshall and we have LOTS of those over here already for half the price of that Voodoo.

I`ve never heard a Plexi sounding so aggressive with that much gain. Yours with the crunch box came closer but thing is just meannnnn.

I'm loving that tone, £1k aint bad for a kick ass amp in my opinion. Chances are we can't get em in the UK as we get shafted when it comes to buying cool maps.

Anyway I WANT ONE!!

Also how is that amp just a 2203 Marshall?? I bet it isn't

that clean owns my jcm800's in terms of actually being clean... the drive sounds VERY similar though

that sounds fantastic to me.. totally hot rodded marshall sound.

Voodoo amps have always been something I've been interested in... I think i'd quite like a V Rock and a Roccaforte HG100 to go with my splawn at some point but Im also going to get a Boogie Mark IV head at some point.
