Product Information


VOX tone that plugs directly into your guitar!

The Vox amPlug AC30 is a headphone amp that can help you to create the perfect practice session. The tiny amPlug plugs directly into your guitar-then just plug in your headphones and relish some great Vox tone.

Jamming late at night? Don't want to wake the neighbors? Maybe you want to work out a lick with your MP3 player without taking the time to set up your amp. You want to play guitar right now. amPlug is the answer. Simply plug this palm-sized headphone guitar amp directly into your guitar, and enjoy serious guitar sound anywhere, anytime.

Even with its ultra-compact size, amPlug perfectly reproduces the complex and warm distortion that is distinctive of a vacuum tube, as well as the powerful high gain produced by a large amp stack. Using analog modeling technology, the Vox amPlug delivers full-fledged amp sound.

Even the circuit response of the original amp is simulated completely. The simulation extends not only to the response of the tone circuits, but also to the way in which the high frequency and gain are affected when you turn down the volume control of the guitar. Every detail has been faithfully reproduced.

amPlug can be used in numerous ways. With up to fifteen hours of battery life, it's easy to take amPlug anywhere. In addition to practicing at home, it's a great way to warm up before a live performance or on the road. And amPlug is not just a convenient way to get great guitar sound. There's also an AUX input jack so you can jam along with your CD/MP3 player.

AC30 emulates the AC30 top boost sound of a vintage VOX AC30, and uses two natural-sounding gain stages to reproduce the distinctive AC30 tone.

Also available in Classic Rock, based on a UK-made amplifier head, and Metal, based on a California-made high-gain amplifier head.

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

TIP-TOP FUN!!

I bought this because I have a wife and baby son, but I made sure to try it out first because I'm a toniophile. It's hard not to be a skeptic when you're staring at a tiny plastic AC30 - but Plug that bad boy in ... it's a SONIC TREAT! For starters, the gain & tone controls actually WORK, which is more than you can say for some mass-market combo amps. Also, it really, truly sounds like an AC30. Through the right headphones, it has a clear, fat, jammy fun sound. Husbands/dads: start making excuses to get out and buy this now. I guarantee this amp will QUADRUPLE your playing time.

Great sound, little package

It’s hard to believe this little piece of plastic puts out so much great sound! Clean to crunchy with plenty of volume and working controls. I originally purchased the headphone amp so that I could hear myself in a group acoustic guitar class. It exceeded by expectations. Now, it goes everywhere with my hollow body. It is so light that it isn’t noticeable on the guitar and the batteries last longer than 15 hours. If anything happened to it, I would buy a replacement without a second thought. I have no complaints. The only technological addition I would like to see is built in blue tooth.

Never Play Unplugged Again

I recently just went to a jazz camp at University of Northern Colorado and this product was a lifesaver. I play bass, but I used this to practice in my dorm and it was great. You can get a hard, crunchy sound to a mellow smooth sound. If you are an active musician that practices unplugged, you need this product!!

Limitless Potential

I purchased this unit because I wanted to be able to practice in silence in the evening, not wanting to wake my two small children, or my wife. It sounds great through headphones, nice tone, very clean and spankey, and crunchy when you turn up the gain. Then I thought..what if I get an 1/8 headphone jack to RCA cable to hook up to my TV suround sound receiver. I went home, hooked it up to some audio ins that were not in use on my receiver, and "WHAM"...instant AC30 in my living room!...Now I know it won't do nearly half the stuff of a real AC30, but for what I paid, it sounds amazing. Granted, I do have a pretty good suround sound system, so I'm sure that helps. I figured I would share this with some players on a budget. Turn it up to 11 mates!

NO MORE SPONGEBOB!!!!!!!!!

This thing is pretty slick. I can jam on this puppy, without having to listen to the SpongeBob cartoon blasting in the house. My amp is massive and loud, doesn't have a headphone input. And I don't want to compete with the television. So this is the solution. No more SpongeBob. As for the sound think U2 Edge-idge!!! Heck it inspires me to play more, and write more music. I can play anytime day or night in peace.
