Review: The Vox Amplug truly is innovate in that both technology, style, size and sound. Its a new range of tiny amps you can plug directly into your guitar. Its a headphone guitar amp which is great for playing guitar at night when you dont want to wake up your neighbourhood.
It uses 100% analog circuit and analog modeling technology
You can choose between three types
Vox AC30 ( obvious choice )
Classic Rock
Metal
It provides you with the same warm sound and distortion which vox are known for it gives you the same type of gain that you would expect from the classic rock series. The Battery lasts for up to 15 hours and runs off two alkaline AAA batteries. Its so simple to setup you just connect the amplug to your guitar and away you go, It even has a aux jack which lets you jam along to cds and mp3s

can u plug straight into a strat type jack? – the amplug seems to be too big
Yes you can!
The pictures don’t show it but the plug is fully behind the main body of the unit as sort of a bump-out. It fits very nicely into the Strat jack.
