Vox - MV50-BM - Brian May 50W Nutube Guitar Amplifier Head,Red

Product Information

When matched with its cabinet, “It’s perfect for any smaller show, and if you want to put a mic in front of it, it’ll do for your big gigs as well. I wouldn't mind going on some future stadium gig and seeing how this shapes up,” said Brian May. Taking its form factor from the VOX amPlug series of palm-sized, battery powered, headphone guitar amplifiers, the amPlug Brian May guitar headphone amplifier provides users with the legendary guitarist’s classic tone anytime, anywhere – through any set of standard headphones. Designed to recreate the unique sound of the signal chain of May’s “Red Special” guitar and cranked AC30, this special edition of the amPlug will thrill guitarists and Queen fans everywhere. Für alle Fans von Brian May und Queen, oder sogar für diejenigen, die einfach einen reinen, warmen und definierten Sound suchen, liefert dieser Verstärker in Hülle und Fülle. Im Vergleich zum MV50 AC ohne Treble Booster schafft es die Brian May Version, dem Sound das gewisse Extra zu verleihen, das ihn so unverkennbar macht. Powered by Vox’s NuTube technology — a revolutionary new vacuum tube that produces authentic tube tone at a fraction of the size and power — the MV50 BM is based on the best-selling MV50 circuitry and modeled on the classic AC30 sound, with the addition of a switchable treble booster from Nigel Knight of Knight Audio Technologies, a refined control panel, and an EQ switch that can be toggled from 'flat' (perfect for larger cabs) to 'deep' (ideal for getting a deeper tone even from a smaller cab).

Special’ guitar.
