Nice demo, Greg. My old Twin unit still works but it sat on a shelf collecting dust for a few years and that affected the rotary controls badly. Keep it clean, folks.
I bought a VOX classic rock 2 days ago, it is a fantastic piece of kit to practice silently but have a nearly full on amp in your headset and it only cost me £38 🤘 I spent £50 previously on a bluetooth amp plug in to a cheap bluetooth wireless headset and the 0.5/1 second delay way was horrendous!! i didnt know about this product at the time and wasted my money..but i redeemed my self by buying a VOX ,playing silent, no lag as headset plugged directly into it and absolutely love it! and so does the wife 🤣
Great video and beautiful guitar. I was going to buy the same guitar a few months ago but cheaped out and got the Fender Player SSH in Plus top aged cherry burst and love it. I will be buying the Vox AmPlug 2 blues version. Thanks for the video!
Absolute noob here, I want to buy an electric guitar and without a speaker/amplifier/anything. I just want to carry my guitar everywhere in the guitar bag and plug it into a headphone for playing. Will this device make it possible?
Cool explained; but its true, they are really noisy; shouldn't cost more than 15-20 Eur though, the look cheap. What I don't like, that you never see your settings, and you can't save them.
There is a mini-cab that you can plug them into. I have the old one, it's not good, but the new one looks like an upgrade and it costs about the same as the amp.
I would probably go with the Clean one. It won't go into a lot of distortion (especially with single coils), but you can get a very nice, warm overdrive and there are two different clean tones available. The Blues adds some low end on all three channels, which I guess makes it less than perfect for funk.
@Greg´s Guitar Gear could you please let me know if you are plugin a sound interface to the headset output jack on the AmPlug? Have you tried to use that output to connect it to a PC to record the guitar?
I plugged the AmPlug headphone output straight into a PreSonus AudioBox. I've managed to cut out some of the noise that the AmPlug makes by lowering the input volume, but I still wouldn't recommend it for any serious recording.
The only difference is the AC30 has all 3 channels sounding like the AC30 and you can add some tremolo by going through the channels. The built in effects and general functionality are all the same. I think the drive goes a bit further than the red channel on Clean, and the tremolo is a nice addition, so that's a great one if you specifically like the AC30 sound.
They don't have a speaker built in, if that's what you're asking. Vox sell a 'dedicated' AmPlug Cabinet (voxamps.com/product/amplug-2-cabinet/) or you can use any other speaker that has an aux in.
@@qyl814 3.5mm audio cable with both male connectors on both ends, so you could connect it to your AUX input on your big amp, or you can use an adaptor to connect to your INPUT amp jack, just like you'd do with your guitar cable, no difference.
Not exactly - Stratocasters actually have two different headstock sizes. This article explains it www.fender.com/articles/tech-talk/how-the-strat-came-to-have-two-heads/

Just the two reviews I was looking for and very well done, Thanks Greg. Robert in Australia
I love your way to review..very calm, super clear and good explanation too.. well done Mannn

let me suggest using the word inexpensive regarding price . And the word cheap regarding quality of build or materials.
Thanks a lot, I'm a beginner and I had no idea how to use it 👍

Thanks, perfect demo 👍 LES

Sweet, Thanks!
Good headphone jack incase you have neighbor's.
Great demo

Sounds out of tune to me!!!!
i found this thing adds annoying noise to the audio. is it normal?
Sorry for the silly question but can this also be used without using headphones? I like the idea of being able to do both. Headphones & without.
There is a mini-cab that you can plug them into. I have the old one, it's not good, but the new one looks like an upgrade and it costs about the same as the amp.
Which one would you prefer?
For more clean, funk and John Mayer style playing? of those two?
thanks in advance. =)
I would probably go with the Clean one. It won't go into a lot of distortion (especially with single coils), but you can get a very nice, warm overdrive and there are two different clean tones available.

@@gregsguitargear6936 Thanks very much. Also for the review. Most reviews are just for the AC30 version. Helped me a lot. =)

I have the Clean, thanks for explaining the fx button a little bit, I was confused with it
Is there any difference between the clean and AC30 version? If so what are they? Does it just make them sound different?
The only difference is the AC30 has all 3 channels sounding like the AC30 and you can add some tremolo by going through the channels. The built in effects and general functionality are all the same. I think the drive goes a bit further than the red channel on Clean, and the tremolo is a nice addition, so that's a great one if you specifically like the AC30 sound.
Greg's Guitar Gear nice thanks for your response
@@jelly5459 The other difference is that the AC30 is a bit cheaper at the US Amazon Store.
Would this be suitable for playing metal? With distortion etc cheers.
They make a metal version. You can search “vox amplug will it chug” on RUclips and there’s a good video that should answer your question
Do they work without headphones
They don't have a speaker built in, if that's what you're asking. Vox sell a 'dedicated' AmPlug Cabinet (voxamps.com/product/amplug-2-cabinet/) or you can use any other speaker that has an aux in.
I plug it into my bluetooth speakers and it sounds great.
👍
Ok, Good review thanks... also, despite my nick being Gary7, my name is Greg, so of course I subscribed!
Can it play in amp?
If you use your amp as cabinet, then yes.
@@Phoenix_cataclysm_in_2040 what cable do I need to use if I am going to use my amp as cabinet?
@@qyl814

声が良い
Lol I'm looking at one of these so I can install it in my piano 😂
Haha nice
I have the classic rock version. I think it's supposed to sound a bit like a marshall. These little things are very handy.
I prefer clean vox headphone amp
My only complain is how flimsy and cheap the plastic used for this product..
они очень сильно фонят=( а так норм штука
Way out of tune
What guitar is that I know it’s a strat but it’s got a big headstock which I’m into unlock most modern strats with smaller headstocks
It's a Deluxe HSS Strat: shop.fender.com/en-US/electric-guitars/stratocaster/deluxe-strat-hss/0147203309.html
Not exactly - Stratocasters actually have two different headstock sizes. This article explains it www.fender.com/articles/tech-talk/how-the-strat-came-to-have-two-heads/
Lord Jock no there’s strats with smaller headstocks that aren’t telecaster it looks like a 70s style Strat headstock
