Voxman's 2nd demo of Night Train - jangly cleans, blues, & rock with Les Paul Custom & TLST

Back again with the wonderful Vox Night Train. I just LOVE this fabulous little amp! My fingers were a little 'tight' when I started so please forgive a few bum notes, and my brain got caffuddled - I found myself repeating stuff and referring to the TLST instead of the NT!! But spare a thought for yer poor uncle Voxie, having to do these in one take (no editing software) and trying to get all my three brain cells coping with playing, presenting, amp & TLST settings all at the same time! Not easy for pro's let alone amateurs like me! Nevertheless, hope its not too shabby an effort & that you enjoy the vid.

Hi! Thanks a lot for the great reviews you put on the Web.

I had a question about he NT. Would you say the clean headroom is enough to play with a drummer?

@MegaBrebis Hi, glad you like the vids & thanks for looking in. Too many variables to give any meaningful reply other than 'maybe'. Depends on how loud your drummer is, what guitar you use (single-coil will give more clean headroom than humbuckers), your definition of 'clean' and of course most importantly the cab & speakers you're using.

I wonder how it would sound through a 2x10, nice demo thats how its done.

@ingeniousblues Glad you liked the demo. I have a Laney VC30-210 with 2x10" Jensen C10Q16 speakers. These give a brighter, toppier more 'vintagy' tone than 12" speakers which I like a lot. You don't get quite the amount of bottom end so I balance this to get the best of both worlds by adding the matching 1x12" Laney GS112VE speaker cab with a Celestion Seventy Eighty.

@edvbenh Pentode - more open, fuller tone (but louder!)

@aronchas I'm sure you'll love it - I did! Get a decent cab for it though.

@aronchas Hi, glad you like the vids and thanks for looking in. The NT15 is a very different animal to the VT40+ - great all-valve tone with 'thick' option vs variety of tonal colours/effects from the VT40+. Really depends on what you want the amp for. Volume depends on which cab/speaker combination you're playing the NT15 through, but it's one loud amp! In truth, you'll struggle to get an equivalent tone from the VT40+ & you won't get that jangly sparkle.

Awesome review!! Im in a big dilema, I love the sound of this baby but Im also considering the Vox VT40+, In valve terms, how loud is this compared to the VT40+? IS he VT40 close to the sounf of this little beast?

Thanks in advance and thanks for uploading your amazing videos!!

@Voxman5 Thanks for getting back to me. I'll definitely have a look at that Laney amp.
