  • Noted producer, engineer, and musician Bob Rock, who has collaborated with such distinct talents as Mötley Crüe, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Metallica, and Cher, recently acquired a Valvetronix 120 Watt Head and 4x12 cabinet: "It’s well laid out and easy to get the hang of," he explains. "To me, the four by twelve cab is a classic kind of Vox look. I love my AC30’s, but I just like the whole look of the four by twelve with the head. Also, it has some really unique tones. It’s great for any working musician who needs a lot of different sounds—it’s an all-in-one amp." He adds, "Plus the tube section makes all the difference to me. I heard it right away, and said ‘wow, I’m impressed.’"

 

We’re so sure Valvetronix will blow you away that we’ll give you a FREE, genuine leather VOX guitar strap just for trying one.

And, when you buy a Valvetronix, you’ll also receive an authenticVOX amp cover absolutely FREE!

BACK TO THE FUTURE

HERE’S A BIT OF TRIVIA––DO YOU KNOW HOW BRIAN MAY GOT HIS SIGNATURE SOUND ON MOST OF HIS RECORDINGS WITH QUEEN?

Besides the wall of AC30s he was known for using live, many people don’t know that in the studio, Brian actually used a home-made amp that his bass player from Queen built for him, plus a treble booster device. It contained a circuit board from an old car radio that was installed into a hi-fi bookshelf speaker, and it was battery operated!

Now, guitarists can finally capture Brian’s distinct sound! VOX has collaborated with Brian May and created the VOX Brian May Special, which is a modern day version of his home-made amp. It incorporates his treble booster, adds a few controls for convenience, and even simulates the battery circuits in the original device.

The Brian May Special is perfect for practice, to overdrive another amp, or to record direct with.
