Thanks for watching and please let me know what you think of these headphone amplifiers.. The recording is going directly out of the headphone socket to my Audio interface as there's no USB-C connection on these. Timestamps & Links below😎🎸

Thx for your quick reply. The listed timestamps are very helpful for me.
Great!👍🏼
Years ago I had the first gen amPlug Lead and I loved it! I even bought the mini extension cabinet and took it outside all the time. It took 2 years of playing every day until the pots became very scratchy, but it still worked. Back then I saw people putting them inside stomp boxes and playing clubs direct to PA. This is all very nostalgic to me and I'm happy they continue making new ones.
Thanks Shane! I’m in need of replacing my NUX mighty plug which is no longer supported by the app so these are perfectly timed and at a great price point!
just bought it this afternoon..love the sound,..sounds good to my ears..btw,thanks a lot for your review mr Shane🫡🤘
greeting from Jakarta,Indonesia🫡
A great introduction to different Vox amps for $50US each!! I have to be honest, I do have a problem with all the control layout but I imagine that if you take the time to learn it, it makes it easier to use. Great tones!!!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🎸🎸🎸🎸
Thank you very much for the video thats exactly what i was searching! Your playings are very cool to listen to and you loved your playtrough betweens differents effects and mic positions !
I used two older models of these (AC30 & Clean) for several years before Fender released the Mustang Micro. I still prefer the Mustang Micro (though I wish it had adjustable gain), but these new Vox versions are a significant improvement over the previous incarnation. I hope they're using better roller pots, as the old ones had a tendency to get scratchy/noisy fairly quickly. Also, I wish Vox had redesigned the articulating plug; as it is, it allows the hard plastic case to easily make contact with the guitar body. On the Mustang Micro, with Strat-style jacks, it's nearly impossible for the amp body to hit the guitar, and there are rubber strips and a rubber knob that help prevent damaging contact with other jack/body styles. Still, at $50, these represent a good value, assuming you don't have to buy too many versions to find the sound you like. Shane's video is a valuable sevice, in that regard.
Absolutely amazing love that sound
Cheers! I was very surprised by these myself.
Awesome demo as always Shane.. I bought the boutique and I really enjoy it. Vox not including a useful manual was a mistake - even a QR code to a video would have been better, because it sounds great but I had watch your video to understand the FX/Drums toggle, I don't think that's intuitive at all. Aside from that, I love that guitar your playing! What a cool design and finish.
Thank you Shane! Got the AC30, Boutique, & Brian May versions because of this review!
Dang it if I didn't have my Boss Headphone Amp I would definitely buy some of those .... great demo Shane !!
I just received the amplug3 AC30 in the mail today. The good: IF this is what an AC 30 really sounds like I robbed myself for years. (I'm a Marshall fanboy from years ago.) The clean is crisp and articulate the dirty is well good. for what this thing is better then NUX or Fender.It's easy to use It's a keeper. BAD: The controls are hard to see even with glasses on and my Pixil for a light source No Good Vox! I am getting interference from something (It's more then 60cycle hum,i have that also) I'm sure it's my expensive headphones. Just bringing it up so others know about it. I really like to tones from it. My Gretsch and Tele sound really good. Like I said It's a keeper. may get another one if I can figure out the interference.
Update: The interference was my Motorola Router/WiFi. All the best to all who read this.
I just hope they make a more proper amplified cab or power amp for this generation of Amplugs, either a rechargeable desktop sized stereo 5w cab (with a speaker out to use on other cabs), or an MV50 sized power amp to use as a gigable head. That'd make these much more useful and fun.
Investing in a Beat Buddy Mini, or Mini 2,to go along with the Vox, is an excellent choice, if you want more Rhythm tracks to play along with. Just plug it in to the Auxiliary, and Rock on.
Great vid 👏👏 the instructions blow but thx to you I know what is what!!!
Good morning, from the U.S., 🇺🇸 Shane. Great content, unbiased reviews, with a gentleman’s perspective.😎
Thanks for the kind words and support! I hope you're well. 😎
Are you sure that the Boutique version is Orange? I thought Boutique replaced Vox Amplug 2 Blues which was inspired by Fender Tweed amps. Even the official review on the 'Vox Amps' RUclips channel introduces the Boutique version as 'Californian-style tones'. Orange is surely not Californian :)
I too was confused by the statement that the Boutique - is Orange Amp. In Vox digital modelers "Boutique" has always meant Dumble
Gets fine quite permanent marker pen out and outlines the writing on it in bright white 👌🤘. Nice video man, keep it up!
Keep playing bass with your thumb if you want. John Myung of Dream Theater uses his while playing his track "Solar Groove" and he is one of the best bassists in Metal.
14:52 Reverb and delay both on? So you can stack the effects? Or just one at the time 🙄 And i’m curious how we get the sound presented in this video. Straight to your you tube recording or over a mic/ amp setup. When its over an amp what amp are you using and is it a neutral clean channel? Tnx in advance. And my compliments, you’re handling the guitar very well 👌🏼😎
I have all of the second generation Amplugs along with the bass and Satriani ones from the original line. I enjoy them a lot. Will have to check the new ones out.
Very helpful - love the boutique
Sorry can someone help me as a new bass player to understand the difference between these?... Can you play the song at 12:55 with the VOX boutique and make it sound the same as the modern bass VOX? Or does this accessory completely change the sound that comes out of the instrument...? Meaning you can't play bass-y using the boutique or the AC30
They sound pretty cool.
I would prob get a boss IR-2 though for a little more money and the hassle of an extra cable.
Runs on batteries too
Thanks for this very thorough and informative and well-put-together video. I love that you went through it in a very methodical way. I am considering buying one of the bass amp ones. Love them, but no bluetooth and not rechargeable. How easy is it to change the batteries?
Very easy. The back just slides off from memory.
Oh gods....... I have to upgrade - now! I've been using the Amplug2 Clean through a 10W JVC bluetooth speaker, via it's aux-in - and that's been at my local clubs. It's sufficient volume to round out my Crafter FX550 sound - and it confuses the sound guy because he can't plug it into the PA - but it's more that good enough for the venue. What I now need are the Boutique and US Silver models and I'll have all the sounds I could use for jazz, blues - and a bit of pop/rock...... Oh - and with my main amp being an Orange.... I love the dirty channel on that plug - it's actually dirtier than I can get out of my current amp - without driving it silly!
I have to ask ... can those able to be stacked? Say plug one into another; each being able to go separated or combined.
Also, can a noise gate be applied???
Good morning from upstate NY and the Adirondack mountains my man..bitter and sunny 15* f this morning..lol..good day to play my Les Paul 🤘🎸. I have the ac30 version of the amplug and it's pretty great for what it is..that and the mustang micro are my headphone amps when I'm in the mood
So does the drum machine come in all of them? Funny there is no mention of it outside this video?
I have an old style Vox one. Very limited. There is so much choice in this market now.
I think a drum beat is almost a must. Not so sure about the "hit & miss" button. I'd like to know what I was using.
Being a clean player. I thought I'd prefer the Silver, but the Orange was excellent.
The same high level of hiss on the Bass one than with version 2 as hearable Too bad. Thanks for the review.
Oh the US twin was nice! And the lenny licks!
Problem with these is not the sound, but the durability
They’re so flimsy they fall apart just sitting on the shelf.
Nah, had mine for months now. It will last of you treat it right, like anything else really. It plugs straight into the guitar so if you're smart you won't sit and rest your guitar on something that would break it by pressure. You can throw the thing around and 8t would be fine
The Amplug 3 hasn't been out for that long, so I doubt there is much evidence of durability issues. My Modern Bass is definitely lighter than my Amplug 2 Bass, so I don't doubt that there are problems with it. Just treat it with baby gloves and hope for the best.
I’ve had my Amplug 2 for over a year with no issues.
@@allend3127 same. I only upgraded to the 3 because I wanted a sharper tone for my bass, plus the 2 didn't play well with Active hardware and I needed to turn down my onboard Preamp. So far the 3 hasn't had that issue.
Incredible sound...I'll buy one for sure!!
They are excellent for practice or recording. Thanks for watching. :)
Cool video! Im kind of a beginner player and would like to play something like stoner psychedelic blues rock style. Which one of these would you suggest for that genre, the boutique one?
Yep, get the Boutique. It does the heavy stoner rock thing great through to Grunge stuff.
@@intheblues thx!
Modern Bass - SOLD! 😜
Got mine the other day, totally worth it!!!!!
How we can use two effects together ? As mentioned in 14.53. I have the boutique one, cannot combine the Delay + Reverb as mentioned, although i tried many combinations of buttons and looked online too.
It is not explained, no instructions how to do it, here or in the manual
Please let me know, would be highly appreciated
Thanks
OMG the tremolo sound at around 20:21 is so sweet (reminds me of The Cure). Is that effect possible to achieve via the Modern Bass unit or only the standard Bass Vox? Thanks.
I was just wondering about something like this. I travel a lot for work and I'm always trying out different rigs I can take with me on the plane and in the hotel. Currently I'm using Positive Grid Riff through my laptop and some small desk speakers, but the power adapter from my laptop puts off crazy amounts of RF noise that get picked up. I think something like this would give me a bunch more luggage space and get the job done of giving me something to practice with.
Interesting and usable sounds, bears further investigation.
Thank you for such detailed overview. What would you suggest for acoustic guitar? I have Vox amplug 2 Clean and it works almost good for electro acoustic classic guitar. The 'greeb' clean channel gives the sound of the guitar almost as is, but other channels cut the high pitch. Anyway. Which one would you suggest to have clean and, maybe some crunch as a second channel for acoustic guitar?
I've been using the same Amplug 2 Clean on my acoustic - but I'm looking to buy both the Boutique and the US Silver and I'll be using either of them depending on my mood!
Compared to the Fender Headphone amp, what do you think Shane ?
Blues On....💙
Great video as always! I play bass and I have the amPlug2 but I barely use it because it's just too noisy. Did you have noise with these ones? Thanks!
I had some ground issues with recording this video to my Audio interface, but the signal out sounded pretty clean overall to my ear.
They all sound really GOOD! \m/
Speaking of Marshalls, I am surprised you are selling your JTM!
I never thought you'd get rid of that 1!
Cheers!
Nice!
Thanks!
Is there one that includes them all ?
for my money 💴 i’ll stick to the Fender mustang mini better construction and more durable and no batteries 🔋 cause it’s rechargeable i use mine with my Boss pedals for even more versatility
Nothing beats the vox amplug 1 metal
Can you have trem and verb together with any of these?
Hello.
As a beginner who just wants to practice with headphones, does it really make a difference which brand I choose?
Vox, Blackstar, or even the cheap Xvive?
I'm still practicing to play chords properly, so my needs are just to hear if the cord sounds good or if I placed my fingers incorrectly.
THX
Yes, it does. I've bought cheap JBL headphones for almost the same amPlug and now I don't know how to get rid of these headphones. They sound terrible and I don't actually know what I was thinking about when I decided to buy them. Now I've got Marshall Monitor II A.N.C. and they sound way better (but not enough bass for me).
Thanks for sharing. I got the Valeton Rushead Max amplug and I'm using some decent Sony headphones. It sounds pretty good to me.
I just don't see the point of a re release if it has no Bluetooth
Good sound … but no Bluetooth. Come on guys, sort that out
Ive just snagged one of these. Im not receiving none of these sounds.
If only it had a belt clip. Then it wouldnt be so clumsy and close to the guitar
Also it's on the underside of the guitar which seems pretty awkward of you want to adjust it. That being said, the sounds are pretty good!
Vox out here acting like it 1996 LOL .
These things break easily. Get the Fender Micro.
I still got my Clean and Bass versions of the 2nd generations. I think you have to be careful of how you place the plug in and your guitar on the stand..
@@gohjohan Same. Going strong after 2 years.
Triple A batteries should be outlawed. They suck and they’re super expensive.
So you want rechargeable Li Ions?
