Very nice demo. Was played with the treble booster engaged? I'm asking because lots of demos of this amp show that it has such a brittle ear piercing sound in the high frequency register which is very unpleasant to hear. And despite you rolled the tone knob ont the amp all the way up (if noticed it correctly) you have a very balanced warm tone but with a great definition of notes in the chords - just like Brian. Don't know why other demos sound so thin and mosquito-like (maybe because of the smaller 8inch speaker of the cab that comes with this amp head, or because of the placement of the microphone when recording)
Thank you for your warmest feedback and questions. As far as I remember, I engaged the internal treble booster of MV50BM, and the tone knob was around 11’o clock. And don’t forget, the volume ALL THE WAY!!! lol You raised a valid point about speaker cabs changing the tones - VOX MV50 series sound quite identical to AC30s when connected to AC30 cabs. My sound here owes a lot to my AC30/6 TBX speaker cab.
Sounds amazing…. I’ve got this amp as well.. pairing it with a 2x12 Cabinet ..a vintage Crestwood from the 70's 4 ohms (running the amp at full power to match the impedance rating)
I get the high end sizzle with multiple note chords but with 2 note chords not as much lol when the eq is flat as opposed to deep... so I use it in deep mode
