VOX

Description

VOX's amPlug 2 Bass headphone amp plugs directly into your bass to deliver a robust low-end through your headphones. This fully analog multi-stage gain circuit was designed specifically for bass frequencies, providing a wide range response for practice or performance. The amPlug 2 Bass is thrilled to introduce three gain modes—AC30 for tremolo, classic rock for mid-boost and metal for mid-cut—so you can shape your tone.

Revolutionary Analog Circuit for Unparalleled Bass Tone

Forget thin, anemic headphone amps of the past. The amPlug 2 Bass was built from the ground up using VOX's proprietary analog technology to reproduce the complex distortion of a tube bass amp. This multi-stage fully analog gain circuit delivers a clearer, more present bass tone to inspire your practice sessions and fuel your creativity.

Three Gain Modes Shape Your Signature Sound

Tired of a one tone fits all approach? The amPlug 2 Bass provides three gain modes so you can craft your bass tone. AC30 mode adds a hint of tremolo for a pulsing bassline. While classic Rock"mode boosts the mids for a punchy, aggressive tone and metal mode cuts the mids for a scooped sound with serious low-end rumble. With a simple turn of the gain knob, you can go from vintage to modern and everywhere in between.

Play Anytime, Anywhere for Up to 17 Hours

The amPlug 2 Bass was designed for bassists on the go. Its folding plug rotates 180 degrees to fit any bass so you can plug in and start playing instantly. An auto power-off function helps this portable amp achieve up to 17 hours of battery life. Now you can practice your basslines, jam along to your favorite songs or warm up before a gig—anywhere inspiration strikes. The amPlug 2 Bass is the perfect companion for the bassist who never stops playing.

its good but not when your rough on gear

great product with a slight flaw, im admittedly rough on just about everything I own, but just sitting on the edge of my bed playing and shifting around occasionally I managed to snap the body off the plug, I love the privacy this gives me to play late at night but my thought would be that it would be nice to have maybe a 6 inch cord instead of a straight plug so that I can clip the body of this mini amp to my strap or somewhere a little more protected.

    I use this to do run downs for playlists and practice and it works wonderfully. Sound is pretty good and has aux cord and headphone jack to play along to songs. Easily something to have if you don't want to go the acoustic bass route and need quiet practice.

  • Good product

    as a former professional musician who now just wants to jam out at home without disrupting the entire household, this little beast is just perfect. I plug my headphones in and then plug my iPhone into the aux and then can just play along to whatever. Highly recommended.

    This is one terrific practice aid. Now, I can plug in and play without disturbing anyone. Sound quality through the headphones is remarkably good and the small size doesn't affect the balance or positioning of the bass. I don't think I can recommend this little gem highly enough. If you don't have one, buy one today!

  • Yes, I would buy this product again and recommend it to othe

    I already own the 'Classic Rock' AmPlug, so I figured the Bass model would be just as great and it's terrific. I've been playing guitar since 1964 and I just got my very first bass. And your Bass Amplug really adds incredible tone and power and is really a lot of fun. Of course, good headphones are must.

    Does this have a small speaker and can be used without a headset? Similar to a regular amp?

    Hi, I purchased the Vox Bass Headphones Amp AP2-BS in The Times Square Guitar Center store last month and its now broken. I was advised to pay extra to cover any breaks and returns and my name and details are in the stores data base. Do I return the item ( free post ) to the store where I bought it or somewhere else? T

    Will this work with any headphones? I have an old set of headphones out in the garage. Does it have to be newer headphones or earbuds or what?
