  • These Valvetronix amps are the biggest joke I have ever seen. The overdrive is complete crap. They want you to think you are buying a tube amp for a low price. Truth is, it might as well be a tiny 12ax7 light bulb in there. This is what the guitar gods made when they woke up in the morning and took a big fat shit!

  • I hate that guy !!!

  • he looks like he jizzing his pants every time he plays...

  • his dad should of used a condom

  • Anybody know what song he's playing at 3:56?

  • Freddy DeMarco? WTF ... is this Johnny DeMarco's brother from those corny Boss/Roland vids? They look exactly the same!

  • where can i buy a vt100

  • @shawnmcgaha123 There is this new thing they call google. Give it a try.

  • dude...cut your fucking hair!

  • why are people hating?... i think this is a pretty good review.....

  • Reverse is the crappiest effect ever

  • @FEAROWNAGE not when used in moderation

  • is this guy Sammy Hagars gay son?

  • I'm not sure what to call this guy curly or blondy.

  • How well do other pedals work on these amps?

  • @draftmartyjones i think only the vox vfs5

    

  • haha its an even gayer sammy hagar!

  • This demonstration really helped me on which amp i should get soon. Thank you Vox Valvetronix Amps!

  • Freddy are you and Johnny twins. Both of you are awesome guitar players.

  • I think the demo is fine. Amp sounds good. I have one. Crazy what one tube........... ( 12AX7 ) can do. It's no Marshall or Boogie but good bang for the buck. The layman's ear doesn't care. I have yet to have an audience member walk up and say the amp sucks. They're too busy clapping and whistling.

  • There modelling amps are fun to play with but are really just toys. Most of the goodness of a tube amp comes from the power tubes not the pre amp tubes.

  • 5:00 sounds kinda like CKY

  • Classic Rock eh - oh that was soooo bad - this guy need a good hard punch in the face as well - he is really irritating.

  • Sounds like ass

  • Sultans of Swing preset, that's a damm win.

  • Awesome amps!I wish Vox kept the chrome face plate grille.I wonder if i can find it so i can replace the the cloth on my VT20+

  • Ha, anyone else catch that while doing the classic rock bit he played Tie Your Mother Down and We Will Rock You? This guy knows his Queen

  • whats better for classic rocks these amps or orange amps ?

  • @123456jdude not even close, orange

  • get some Jeff Loomis in there! hes embarrassing. lol.

  • camel toe

  • Maybe it's just me, but I think they are selling the amp, not the dudes face!

  • why vox is getting so digital?

  • This guy looks like he just came out of a 1980's time warp

  • Holy shit, never play the "blues" again...

  • What a fucking Cunt, such an annoying face

  • i think i speak for everyone when i say, what a cunt.

  • I have a VT50. my Nitpick, is that you can't shut off the 22 amps in manual mode.

    Otherwise I'm pretty happy. $315 worth it.

  • this guy should be on wayne's world.

  • the guy with the orgasmic face expression ist kinda difficult zu mastrubate on :P

  • I didn't realise my VT15 could sound THIS good...

  • Yeah... I'll just keep my Vypyr.

  • SHIT, JOHNNY(boss pedals demos) HAS A BROTHER?

  • I get a crackling noise when playing this amp. I use the noise gate, but it still does it (and i don't even think it has to do with the noise gate). How do I stop it?

  • If you took a frog, strapped it to a bench and then stuck hot pins in it's body -- that's how it's face would look.

  • Modeling amps are getting better...but not quite there. The cleans in this video are good, but the overdrive tones are horrible. If the hybrid amps could lose that harsh, tinny overdrive I would buy one in a heartbeat.

  • @murfdog19 The reason these overdrives sound like crap is probably because he did no EQ'ing. I own this amp, and trust me, the overdrives and distortions are amazing.

  • @TylerVanderkooy Okay, that's good to know. I may have played one at Guitar Center once, but I can't remember if it was the VT. I haven't owned a solid state amp since I was a little kid, but I would like to buy a modeling amp for practice and studio work. How does this compare to the Fender G DEC? Have you played one of those?

  • @murfdog19 Yes, I have played one of the fenders. I personally think that the VOX is more versatile. You can get the sound the fender will give you, and more. Also, this amp is a partial tube amp, so you can get great tube-like tones from it. What styles of music do you normally play?

  • @TylerVanderkooy I play a little of everything. On stage I use an Orange AD30HTC and Orange 2x12 cabinet. People say the Orange amps aren't versatile, but the AD30 does it all for me. I'm looking for something that can cover all territories but in a smaller package....and of course much less expensive.

  • @murfdog19 I would say that the Vox VT 15 watt or 30 watt would be perfect. Unless you don't put microphones on the speakers. If you don'd mike the speakers up, you might want to go with one of the more powerful versions, like the 50 or 100 watt ones.

  • I had to watch the part where he hits himself at 6.12..VERY FUNNY!!!

  • This sound much better than my Vox VT.

  • that fucking face!

  • I wish people would stop commenting about his facial expessions :l We get it, they're odd, no need for nearly everyone to say it :/

  • can someone please PLEASE tell me the song he plays at 5:42, when testing the pedal? please please~!

  • @jaspa0tha0ghost its just something he played ;)

  • correction: 6:16

  • 6:15 WTF!

  • I have to look away,whilst listening sorry

  • DeNiro with a wig, geeking out on pain killers.

  • I love mine!

  • why my vt80+ has 33 presets and this vt100's only 22? i mean... my amp is cheaper and smaller and got more options?

  • @meverasvolver666 because you have vt80+ and the vt100 is normal i mean you have the plus version

  • @tubitooxuulo really? i didn't know that!. Thanks a lot for your answer man! from Cordoba Argentina

  • @meverasvolver666 jajaj soy de quilmes papaaaa

  • @tubitooxuulo JAJAJAJAJA no te puedo creerr!!! vos sabes que es como la 5ta vez q me pasa que me hablo todo en ingles en algun comentario y despues resultan ser vecinos mios!!!jajajajaj

  • @meverasvolver666 ajaja que grande

  • Watch my EFUCKS!

  • Comment removed

  • THE DRAMA,,OHHH PLEASE THIS GUY IS KILLEN ME....

  • I'm sure this is a cool amp, but my goodness this is one horrible demo.

  • @kurn3y LOL

  • @kurn3y its a fcking sick demo, what more do you want, he told you about the pedal, the different effects, and he played through it, if he talked all the way through it you would still fcking moan.

  • @kurn3y it was that horrible you sat though the hole demo

  • My vt15 sounds nothing like this!! Sarcasm

  • the guy's face is fucking annoying to watch.

  • @FretLegendSmithy THAT WAS PRECISELY MY POINT A WAYS BACK,he looks like he thinks he's fukn ingwie

  • @DavidFrazier100 He LOOKS like someones giving him a blowjob.

  • @FretLegendSmithy BWAAAAHAHAHAA,,LOL,,,,ooooo the drama

  • @FretLegendSmithy true, true.. i can't take his orgasm-like face. :D

  • @FretLegendSmithy he looks to me like a retard

  • @FretLegendSmithy no this guys face is retarded

  • these amps sound pretty good. not too bad, but they crash really easily. and the effects are wank. you might as well just get a top quality amp that will get you a great sound rather than one of these 'all in one' amps.

  • worst amp i ever had,they sound puny,and the louder you turn it up the worst it gets,fucking garbage...

  • @DavidFrazier100

    YOUR A FUCKIN DICK THIS AMP IS AMAZING I LOVE THE VT100

  • @ACDCBESTBANDEVER1 ***i'm glad you love your amp,i have the vt 50 and it is weak

  • @DavidFrazier100

    man im going on about the VT100 it is awesome + what style of music do you play?

    peace

  • @ACDCBESTBANDEVER1 hey dude its cool, blues rock,instumental,this amp has good features,i just feel that the tone is not fat enough,,sounds ok at a lower volume,anyway click on to my name and you can go into my channel***DAVE

  • This amp sounds like ass

  • How the fuck can he use flanger, rotary and phaser at once?

  • he looks like Mr perfect

  • With just one 12ax7. All you need

  • This or ac30vr???

  • i have a valvetronix ad15vt and from when i bought it it makes this fuzzing vibrating and you can hardly hear the guitar tone ive tried lots of things to fix it but it still doesnt work

    now i just plug it into a p.a and use it as a effects processor (this doesnt use the valve , speaker or amp circuit)

  • where am i supposed to plug the wah wah cry baby pedal?cause at the back theres only the input for the VFS5 footswitch.what should i do?thx

  • @tyleeaang same imput as guitar

  • @TheMrPhilmer

    what about the guitar then?

  • @tyleeaang you plug the guitar THROUGH the peddle then into the amp, like any other amp

  • @tyleeaang Plug your guitar into the pedal, and then plug the pedal into the jack you would normally plug your guitar into.

    Guitar > Pedal > Amp

    :D

  • @Noverionff

    thanks

  • Orgasms turn off on that amp. lol

  • Guitar player thinks that he is in madison square garden.Relax , it´s just a video demo

  • i got it ...... it is awesome!

  • sounds too fizzy

  • 2:29 He's Getting Head!!! XD

  • All i see is orgasm faces

  • The best option for those who want quality and low investiment ... here in Brazil of course. i'm in the way of having mine!

  • 6:17 ???

  • No me gusta el sonido, es igual a tocar con un pedal zoom de efectos, de valvular no tiene nada su sonido, y el tipo que toca es un payaso no se por que todos hacen esas muecas en las caras a lo yngwie maslmsteen como si serian los mas geniales del mundo en la guitarra

  • not even pissed,i am fucking smiling,and your music is an insult to a trash can hahahaha

  • i have this same amp n it sounds like shit. every thing i put it to its sounds fuzzy any help?

  • @megakisstallica12 I have a smaller version of this amp and have the same problem. It won't take and pedals very well for some reason. It works a lot better just using the on-board effects and gains/overdrives. It's only my practice amp anyway so it's perfect for that.

  • @dairniel if you had the vt100 you could use the onboard effects loop, it makes all my pedals sound great.

  • @XxstuckinajarxX I've not got the VT100. Got the 15w one and it doesn't have a loop. I only really use it to record with the 'line-out' anyway. And it's good for jamming in my room - it's got enough effects for that and they're great quality. My only real problem is that the delay is too clean.

  • @megakisstallica12 try experimenting with manual mode,working the gain

  • IN MY OPINION THIS IS WHAT I THINK,I HAVE THE VT 50,I THINK ITS CRAP BECAUSE WHEN YOU PROGRAM IN THE BANKS THE VOLUME LEVELS ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE,I'M CONSTANTLY TRYING TO FIGURE THIS PIECE OF SHIT OUT,AND ITS TOO OVERCOMPLICATED, ALL THIS MODELING CRAP IS A BUNCH OF SHIT.......AND I DONT GIVE A FLYING FUCK WHAT VOX THINKS OF MY COMMENTS FREDDY PLEASE SPARE ME OF ALL THE CORNY FACIAL EXPRESSIONS !!! OH PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • @DavidFrazier100 umad?

  • @DavidFrazier100 Forget about it! You're idiot that can't even find the caps lock. How can you expect yourself to figure this amp out?

  • @Imat00l up yours grandma,my point is you shouldnt have to be a fucking rocket scientist to have a guitar amp work right, it should be simple*** dipshit

  • @DavidFrazier100 It's now clear that you were born with more obstacles than that of an inbred retard.

  • @Imat00l hey fuckstick,its clear to me that your music is a perfect example of your last made comment,what is that shit,sounds like the singer is puking and that aint music,its fucking garbage !!!!

  • @DavidFrazier100 Is that the only retort you can muster -attacking another person's listening preference? I've now realized your easily overestimated. You should just quit playing guitar altogether, instead, save your monies for your daily hooker and schwag. You're so pathetic =)

  • @Imat00l first of all dickwad,you shouldnt stick your nose where it doesnt belong,its none of your fucking business what i think about any product i purchase,do you think your an authority?,a know it all?,if i dont like a can opener its none of your businsess,capeche? you dont know shit about me,so mind your own fucking business dipstick,you opened this can of worms,and all you have accomplshed is given me reasons to laugh at you,so fuck off...

  • @DavidFrazier100 haha. I pissed you off. I have thoroughly enjoyed wasting your time. =)

  • @Imat00l hey dipstick,a 6 year old kid could play open notes on that shit you call music,that you want to share with the world,it doesnt take a rocket scientist to tune down to D and do that,that shit has no value whatsoever and will be long forgotton,as if it never existed

  • @DavidFrazier100 I now enlightened as to why these life coaches make their money. Get help ASAP =)

  • @Imat00l YA MOTHERFUCKER,dont put your nose where it doesnt belong and it wont get bit off,get it yet?,stupid motherfucker i'm done with your sorry ass,you can continue until the cows come home,fuck you and your juvinile music,senseless tasteless motherfucker,you can go on and on,go ahead keep goin...

  • @DavidFrazier100 I hope I ruined your day. Ciao!

  • is the VT better or VT+??? I have a $200 budget soo help plz!

  • There is just something I don't know do you need to change the tubes?

  • Is the vt40+ enough to play with drum in pubs or small locals?? or is the vt50 better??

  • @ArtPolo1990 on the vt20+ you can crank the wattage up to 30 watts.

    I think you can crank the vt40+ to 50.

  • I have the vt 50,i'm still trying to figure it out,has excellent clean and power,the sustain possibilities are great,what i don't like is i believe they are built with cheap labor and are prone to break down,i bought it used,looked pristene condition (8 months old) the plug in had an issue that popped up in the first week and it costed me 140 dollars***so watch out*** and i'm still upset about the extra cost... i mention this so others wont go through this....BEWARE !!!!

  • Billy Mays of guitar gear reviews

  • I love using this baby in the studio x]

  • Hi! I am from Bosnia, I bought your VOX VT 100, and I must say that I am so glad and satisfied, It's loud, the tone is great, but I have a question!? I bought the VFS5 footswitch, and there are 8 stored sounds/programs, whatever.. Is it the same 8 programs, sounds on every VT series, or it isn't, because if it is I would like to know wich amp models did you use on the stored effects/programs. I would like to know wich amp model is on ch. 4 in first bank, the red bank, the tone is amazing! thanks

  • @RijadHabibovic I am sorry, I think it's the green bank, first bank, ch.4. Really nice distortion/overdrive, I would be pleased if you could tell me witch amp models, parameters did you use in all 8 stored programs. and sorry for my bad english.

  • I think he has sex with that guitar... the facial expressions give it away.

  • This dude's hair is so fake...

  • Is there any way to turn the modeling completely off?

  • I see all of these reviews of these fancy amps and I'll still put my Marshall 1987X MKII slammed with my DOD 250 any day. If you're going to spend huge bucks on an amp just make it a Marshall and be done with it.

  • @AceOfHeart2012 I think the point of these amps is to get a wide range of sounds without having to buy a bunch of $200 pedals. I agree that a nice Marshall (NOT an MG series!!!) would sound better, but it's going to be a bigger investment in the long run.

  • @nstermn2 I can agree with that.

  • I wonder how this amp would sound next to my peavey classic 50 or my marshall dsl

  • This guy scares the shit out of me.

  • the boutique metal setting at 2:54 sounds the best to my taste

  • He should use his guitar´s toneknob... His sound is way too sharp imo.

  • does anyone get volume spike issues ?

  • Does it have a built in noise gate?

    

  • @MrBowchikawowwow yup :P

  • I had a choice between the VT100 or the Blackheart BH 100 amp head to buy today. I went with the VT100. Yes, I know that tube amps are warmer,and have better tone, but I feel with the VT100 I will spend less time on maintenance that tube amps eventually require. IMO, this is a very good combo amp for the money and you can hook it up to a speaker cabinet. Peace!

  • Hi I hope someone can help me, what is better a 10 inch or 12 inch speaker in a 30watt amp.

  • @6stringsoffaith 12" will always provide a fuller range at any wattage.

  • I bought a VT100 as apposed to the valve king series from Peavey. Im not knocking the valveking series at all, im just saying check these amps out, I was never disapointed

  • Just bought the 15 watt version as a little practice amp..I must say..IT ROCKS!!..I love that you can turn down the watts and crank it and bring the tube sound out!...I LOVE THE THING! =]

  • The problem i have with Vox is lack of customer support. After 3 months of people asking for their own section in the forum for the VT+ series, there was no reply from vox. ANYONE who has ever ran a forum, knows it takes about 10 minutes tops to create a new forum and assign permissions. This is inexcusable to make customers wait so long for a forum where they can discuss their newest purchases and share settings etc. After seeing how long Vox had ignored their customers I took my VT+ back.

  • Hi, just took delivery of my VT100, my first impression is its very bassy, and i cant seem to get any of them crunchy sounds from it, the 'enter sandman' setting is just not enterring the sandman. sounds quite muddy. could there be a fault on my amp

  • @maidenman74 yeh it take abit of getting used to, theres no fault, it sounds that way :( although you can get some awesome crunchy tones just switch to the UK modern and adjust the gain to what you want, then put you treble around 7 and you bass around 5 and mids about 4-5 too and about 3 reverb, and adjust any effects you want, you can use Us '90s model too that gives abit more crunch with those settings but not as much gain, hope it helped man

  • @RGuitarAxel , Thanks mate. After tinkering for a while i must say that the Slash and Brian May settings are absolutely awesome and sound almost spot on, shame i dont though.

  • WHAT KINDA METAL PLAYING WAS THAT?

  • I think you've all missed the main point here. Aside from now being sold on the amp (I tried it out last week at my local guitar shop- and it really is great), the faces Freddy makes are absolutely priceless. If this amp makes me do those rock and roll faces, it's worth every penny.

  • anyone know this has been recording ?

  • All, can anyone explain me .. Can we use the same "VT Valvetronix" which used in this video for ACOUSTIC GUITAR also ? Is there a way to use this amp for Acoustic guitar also ? I tried it but no sound was coming from AMP .. Please advice.. thanks in advance !!!!...

  • is there a way where i can switch from clean to overdrive?

  • @musicfan101ful buy the vox vt footswitch and and change the channels, with the factory settings channel 1 is clean and 3-4 are overdriven, or you can just press the button on the amp

  • Anyone else get a kick out of watching his face while he played? lol

  • @lordsombre you can get some good metal sounds you have to fiddle threw it a bit though, and a bit of advice I find that if you want it to be clear and make it not sound like ," it has a blanket over it" is tilt the amp up a bit or get a stand that tilts it up and it will sound fine I'll try to get a video up of this amp and play some metaly kinda stuff to show the world

  • All I can say about the VT100, if you're serious about buying one, an EQ pedal in the FX loop is heavily recommended. The VT100's own EQ is extremely muddy and sounds like there's a blanket over the amp. With an EQ pedal, it will clear up all of the bass so you can create a tone that is clear and cuts through. Otherwise you're likely to be very disappointed.

  • I got one of these amps not to long ago and I love it, the presets are a little iffy but with some small changes in bass and treble and you can get any sound you want , I play metal and I can get some really nice deep distorted sounds out of this.

  • Comment removed

  • hes fuckin up himself

    and talks to his guitar 1:09

  • how do u get the songs to play through the actull amp im not sure if the song actully plays or its just the effects of how the guy actully plays it??

  • the gain tones sound like shit, typically solid state

  • @Classix1969 im not sure if you own one of these amps but you can get amazing tube tones from it, it's a tube amp so you only get the tube tone when you turn up your volume, you can also change the amount of watts it uses so can play turn it up on full volume at pratice volumes, but if you're talking about the video tone the metal tone is ok but vox guitars aren't very metal so it sounds alittle fuzzy

  • what band is Jessica by(the preset)

  • @latertodeath the allman brothers of course

  • It sound like a pokemon boss XD 4:41
