VOX Pathfinder 10-BRG - 10W Electric Guitar Combo Amplifier - British Racing Green

The eye-catching looks of this 10-watt combo is classic VOX : - basket-weave, leather-look - distinctive diamond grille cloth - and, of course, chicken head knobs! Small but all-important details such as the white piping have also been faithfully reproduced, perfectly recapturing the legendary look of VOX. The all-analog, solid-state design is responsive and chimey, just like a VOX should be. This classy little amp sounds as good as it looks and will provide you with a plethora of guitar tones that not only sound great but feel great too! The VOX Pathfinder 10 is perfect for practicing, jamming with your friends or, if you're that way inclined, just annoying your neighbours! Let's take a quick tour of the features 'n' controls that make the Pathfinder 10 as flexible as it is compact 'n' toneful. 1. INPUT Jack This, believe it or not, is where you plug your guitar into the amp! Make sure you use a good quality guitar cable to do this. 2. GAIN Control This adjusts the overall preamp gain of the amplifier. This control can produce a wide variety of killer tones - from clean to crunchy to crazy and all points in-between! What you get all depends on how you dial this control in and also how you have the Clean/Overdrive Switch (3) set. In both Switch modes - Clean Overdrive - turning the Gain control down (i.e. counter clockwise) will clean up your sound while cranking it up (i.e. turning it clockwise) will dirty things up. The possibilities are endless I tell ya! 3. CLEAN/OVERDRIVE Switch As its name suggests, this switch puts the preamp of your Pathfinder 10 in one of two distinctly different modes - Clean (switch out) or Overdrive (switch in). And, as you'd expect, the Overdrive mode has bags more gain (read: ability to distort in a rocking way!) than the Clean mode. So, if you want more gain just press this sucker in and let rip! 4. TREBLE Control This adjusts the treble (high) frequencies in your tone. It can take your sound from soft and round, to bright and cutting, and any point in-between. 5. BASS Control This adjusts the bass (low) frequencies in your tone. It can take your sound from warm and light, to dark and heavy and any point in-between. 6. VOLUME Control Amazingly enough, this one determines the overall volume of the amplifier - hence its name! Setting this control high while keeping the Gain low works well for clean sounds (HINT: make sure the Clean/Overdrive Switch is out if you wanna go clean!), while setting the Master Volume lower, engaging the Overdrive mode and turning up the Gain will give you a fat, distorted sound at a lower, bedroom friendly volume. 7. HEADPHONE/LINE OUT Jack This dual output carries a specially filtered signal for use with either headphones or for direct connection to a soundboard or recording console. The LINE OUT gives you a good sounding signal for recording or live work without having to mic up the amp. IMPORTANT NOTE: Connecting the headphones here mutes the internal speaker.making this facility perfect for late night, silent practice!
