Vox vt40+

Hi all ... this is my second post for today ...

I bought a Vox vt40+ hybrid amplifier with only 1 power tube .. i think. Well, I bought on behalf of a friend, tested the amp for all its functions, full wattage .. 60w i think, and for a few seconds full blast the volume, a very loud amp. The amp has a promotion price which ends today ... RM577.70 .. a good deal for a hybrid amp.

The presets have nice tones, especially clean and UK metal. The presets are also based on some songs, tested Enter Sandman mode ... but the tone not to my liking, dont think its even close to the original black album tone. I have a few days to test it and if like it so much, I might buy one, probably a smaller wattage i.e. vt20+ .. a 20w amp. Will have to wait for the year end sale though ...

The picture of the amp is above .. courtesy of an online shop somewhere on the net ...

Saw someone tested the vt20+ at the shop ... my conclusion would be .. with good hands this amp would soound awesome .. with my hands (beginner's hands) ..it sound like any other basic amps ..sighhhh ...

First and foremost ...

Hi all,

This is my second attempt to do a blog. It is about my passion on guitars, amps, recording devices and perhaps a little bit about bass. I am just a beginner and only a bedroom guitarist. I spent more time at guitar shops instead of practicing and due to that I think I might always be a beginner.

I plan to be a small time guitar collector, at the moment I only have 1 guitar which is a Gibson Explorer with EMG 81/85, bought from US Ebay about two years ago. I also have a Zoom G2NU, a Behringer headphone and I used the Garageband for my recording. I am still learning on how to use all these equipments. Soon I will be getting a Modtone Speedbox distortion. I have no amp at the moment, still unable to decide which one I should get and more importantly I have no budget for it. oh btw .. I also have a Dean bass ... bought it brand new and was very cheap .. very very cheap .. 60% discount .. a beginner's bass.

So have fun reading dear readers !!!
