Vox MV50 High Gain 50W Portable Head Overview

Vox MV50 High Gain Product Overview by GAK

The MV50 High Gain is a high gain optimised portable head from Vox featuring analog circuitry that perfectly replicates vintage vacuum tube amps.

The Mid Control Switch allows you to boost or cut your guitars mid-frequency range, allowing you to boost both your high and low end.

Onboard you will find an all analog pre-amp circuit featuring a revolutionary Nutube vacuum tube. The head is powered by a Class D power amp designed specifically for the unit.

The MV50's lightweight design makes it the perfect Head for the touring musician.

Vox Product Overview

Powered by Nutube, the MV50 series achieved shockingly light-weight design, and is currently available in three models with differing sonic characters: AC, Clean, and Rock. Each model is capable of amazingly powerful sound that you would not expect from its looks or size, and these units have stunned guitarists around the world. Now, two new types have been added to the lineup: High Gain and Boutique. The fat sense of drive that's distinctive of vacuum tubes — and is characteristic of the Nutube — is alive and well. Painstaking attention has also been paid to the analog circuitry, perfectly replicating even the complex interaction between the components of a vacuum tube amp. Fast response and overpowering dynamics are also major features of the MV50 series.

If you want the high-gain sound that's indispensable for modern music, the MV50 High Gain is the amp for you! Equipped with a MID CONTROL SWITCH that boosts or cuts the mid-frequency range, this amp gives you a versatile range, delivering edgy sounds with a boosted high and low end that are perfect for riffing or a thick lead sound.

Not had chance to try it in earnest yet but so far it seems to be what I need.

excellent product, brilliant to use if you're looking for that Mesa looking sound but on a budget. Good use for practices, home use and recording (basic recording)

This amp is amazing. I'm used to using a 60watt all tube amp that weighs a tonne but this thing weighs just over a pound, fits in the palm of your hand and at 50w it easily powers a 4x12 cab. only that but I would say it actually responds to how light or heavily I play better than the traditional tube amp. This is my number one amp now.
