Vox Pathfinder 10 4-stars Reviews

Bon pour les débutants

J’ai été impressionné de la qualité son de cet ampli, il m’a bien accompagné durant ma première année.

Nice Punchy Sound For A Small Speaker Amp

This amp is really well made (chipboard) and is well designed and attractive. I would have liked inbuilt reverb, but that would have made it more expensive and I have a reverb pedal to use anyway. The clean channel is puncy and surprisingly full and bassy for such a small speaker. There are some nice crunchy gain sounds with the overdrive button pushed in, but I found the jump in volume to be very sudden and excessive. Even with the gain knob down low, switching to overdrive boosts the volume a lot. It's almost as though the normal clean channel is too quiet. The amp is designed to be used as a practice amp, so it's not as though you would be switching channels mid song and it will be easy enough to prepare for the volume jump. This is a good sounding 10 watt practice amp at a price that is about right for the features and quality.

Completely stunned!

The amp is perfect! The tone is the perfect British one and very mellow as well, the only problem is that they sent me the amp in a different package so I got the amp before the new guitar and cable and with no UK plug whatsoever. :/ Kinda disappointed with delivery matters.

Great price, good for practice!

I’m just a beginner so I can’t say much but I was really impressed with the quality and sound. It lacks a few features but for the price, it has more than all the others I looked at. I also wanted something with recording capability and most others didn’t have that feature included. Overall well worth the money!

Good for the price

Great for a practice amp, however I would recommend considering headphone amp alternatives as well

Nice practice amp

A good combo amplifier for the home.

The volume is great for the home and the sound quality is good enough for this price category. If you do not need different effects, etc., I advise you to safely take it.

Of the minuses, I would like to note a small functionality, but for such a price it is acceptable

In general, a good combo amplifier for beginners, but I would recommend something better if the budget allows

very good amp for the money! Having it for 10 years now!

Classic Vox sound

If you are looking for a more "British" sound on a budget this Vox Pathfinder 10 is the right tool for you.

For a more rich and warm sound look elsewhere - aka Fender -

It sounds nice, you write what you hear for real, clear and loud enough only the overdrive function is a bit stiff for my taste. Maybe an external pedal use, be more creative for the sound. I am very pleased.

Yes, it is.

I use this one mainly for recording purposes. While it has that typical VOX tone, it does have its own character. The clean channel is where it's at for me, the gain channel sounds too harsh for my liking.

Other than that: decent build quality, loud enough for home practicing or even small indoor events, and like so many others mentioned before me, it takes pedals really well.

Well worth buying, this puppy!

Cracking little amp for the price and size

I have the Bass version and I wasn't impressed, but the guitar amp is a whole other story. I bought it for my daughter, to accompany a guitar I made for her, which has vintage copy Seymour Duncan Jazzmaster pickups in it - I hoped the Vox would add to the vintage sound, and boy, am I not disappointed! It sounds absolutely great! And while the bass version really struggles for enough power to be useful, the guitar amp throws out enough noise to practice with a band in a small rehearsal studio. And it's light as anything too, so really portable. The only slightly annoying thing is the power cable is 'built in' - I live in France and it arrived with a UK plug and a (utterly useless - except as a spare) French kettle lead. No drama, I changed the plug, but seems like a silly thing for Vox to skimp on for what is otherwise an absolute bargain of a practice amp.

Well, to be honest its a good compromise to play store home. This amp is perfect assembled and the quality of materials are good.

I?m satisfied!!

Great practise amp

I bought this as my first amp to use at home for practising.

The little 10watt solid state amp has a nice sound, characteristic of Vox. The controls are simple and work fine.

The amp can go quite loud for a practise amp, but it isn't enough for gigging with or even playing with a drummer.

The amp also lacks reverb, which is a shame as I don't have a reverb pedal.

All in all a nice amp for practising at home, but not quite enough for anything else.

Good amp for home use

Nice solid amp, well made and pretty decent sound. It's perfect for home use or in a small venue and the only negative point, if one can call it such, is that it lacks an aux-in input.

Looks awesome , like a mini ac30. This is one of the best sounding solid state amps I've heard with authentic vox tones.

The clean channel works pretty well with fx pedals, as it's pretty transparent sounding.

Overall a great practise amp for those on a budget.
