VOX

collapse expand iconDescription

The VOX AmPlug 3 Bass headphone amp delivers versatile bass tones and immersive effects in an ultra-portable plug-in package. With the AmPlug 3, bassists can practice anywhere with rich, vibrant bass tones inspired by modern tube amps and stompboxes.

Jam With Two Distinct Bass Channels

The AmPlug 3 Bass provides two different bass amp sounds to suit any style. Channel 1 produces a clear, articulate tone perfect for funk and Motown-style grooves. Crank up Channel 2 for a high-gain distortion punch, ideal for rock and metal. Switch between channels to go from a vintage upright thump to an aggressive modern growl with the flick of a switch.

Analog Circuitry Emulates Tube Amp Dynamics

Vox specially tuned the analog circuitry to recreate the warm compression and rich overtones of classic tube amps. You can hear and feel the speaker-like interaction between the amp and headphones. The enhanced analog design makes your bass tone more touch-sensitive and responsive, just like playing through a real amp.

Shape Your Sound With Stereo Effects

The AmPlug 3 Bass features a suite of immersive effects like chorus, delay and reverb to take your tone to the next level. The stereo effects deliver an expansive soundscape that makes it feel like you're plugged into a pedalboard, not just headphones. Dial in the perfect amount of ambience to suit any musical setting.

Built-In Drum Patterns Keep You Grooving

Nine different drum patterns are built right in to the AmPlug 3 so you can jam anytime. Cover all the essential rhythms from rock to reggae. The steady beats make solo practice more engaging and enjoyable. Lock in with the drums to sharpen your timing and technique.

Aux Input For Easy Smartphone Recording

The AmPlug 3 Bass doubles as an audio interface, with an AUX input for recording directly into your smartphone or tablet. Just plug your headphones into the amp, connect it to your device with the included cable and start laying down bass tracks. The AUX input provides a convenient way to capture ideas and share your performances.

    Plug and play. The Gain doesn't seem to do much but control volume, as does the volume. Tone does make a slight difference. Other functions are cool. Good for the price. Has a bit of a reverb effect though. Using Audio-Technica 50x's so it's not those (tried others too).

  • Great practice amp

    I bought this Vox amPlug Bass amp for practice. I also bought the Vox powered Bass headphones. This will be useful with my non powered headphones. Great clear sound and affordable.

  • Excellent Bass Amp for the Price

    I'm a new bass player, and wanted an easy practice bass amp. This is perfect. I'm able to play and not disturb anyone. Has a lot of features to get different sounds. Very happy with my purchase.

    This is a handy little tool for practice. Unfortunately, the battery only lasts around 1.5-2 weeks of regular practice. You must remove the batteries when not in use.

  • Great for practice
