Tone Report Weekly Issue 160 | Page 43

One of my favorite headphone amps in recent years has been the Vox amPlug AC30 model . The amPlug line is now in its more feature-laden second iteration , but I still have an original AC30 , and I have always loved how it just plugs right into the guitar ’ s input jack with no cable necessary . It also sounds superb , with a dynamic , chimy-sounding all-analog circuit that does a great impression of an AC30 Top Boost combo . I ’ ve even put pedals in front of mine with good results . The amPlug 2 line has been expanded recently , adding different models for metal , bass , and Marshallesque classic rock tones , as well as a full spectrum of built-in effects . The lovely sounding analog circuitry has been retained , as has the very convenient plug system , which has been further improved upon with 180 degree rotation , which makes it much easier to use the amPlug with a wide variety of guitars with varying jack arrangements .
