Vox Valvetronix VT30 amplifier

"One trick I learned is to run the guitar through a clean overdrive pedal (I use a Bad Monkey) into the amp to smooth out high gain chords and blissfully fatten the high gain leads..."

"I tried a couple different amps in this class and the VT30 had the best sound overall..."

"I've used the headphone out with an adapter for direct recording to an interface with very good results, though 1/4 outs..."

"First off, the volume levels on the amp are very good, and that's this amplifier's strongest point..."

"Admittedly, the distortion tones on the amp are very good, but the cleaner sounds are only okay..."

"In all, I recommend this amp to beginning musicians, but for the more serious axmen out there, there are far better amps available..."

"I gave it an 8 for lack of a good (loud) clean sound..."

"The 4 clean amp models are pretty good if you don't require lots of volume..."

"The clean stuff is good, it is just hard when the gain is down and you want to get some volume..."
