Vox amPlug 3 UK Drive Headphone Guitar Amp
The Vox amPlug 3 UK Drive is a headphone guitar amp that recreates the sound of a British 100-watt stack. It's for the rocker who wants full-power distortion at two in the morning, without turning up a real stack in the house.
What sets it apart
- The sound of a 100 W stack made in the UK
- Channel 1 full vintage, channel 2 cutting distortion
- Stereo chorus, delay and reverb
- Two rock rhythms among the nine patterns
- Tempo from 40 to 240 BPM
- Swivelling plug and AUX jack
British rock in your headphones
Channel 1 gives a full-bodied vintage sound for crunchy chords. Channel 2 switches to a sharp distortion that holds notes for a long time, made for solos. The GAIN, TONE and VOLUME knobs take you from classic rock to a more current sound.
Long reverb, delay in time
The stereo reverb runs from 400 ms to 8 s and the delay from 40 ms to 1 s; you set their time by tapping TAP. Two rock patterns, a blues, two pop, a funk, a metal and a jazz back up your playing, with a metronome for exercises.
