This 10-Watt, 1 x 6.5" combo’s eye-catching looks are also classic VOX and include basket-weave, leather-look vinyl, our distinctive diamond grille cloth and, of course, chicken head knobs! Small but all-important details such as gold beading and white piping have also been faithfully reproduced, perfectly recapturing the legendary look of VOX. The Pathfinder 10’s powerful yet always tone-filled 10-Watt output, makes this amp perfect for home practice, backstage warm-up and recording. The Clean/Overdrive switch allows you to change instantly between clean and dirty sounds. With a mere press of this switch you can go from a crystal clear clean sound to our uniquely warm distortion; or from a slightly crunchy bluesy tone to a high-gain, modern-rock roar. Want to practice late at night without disturbing your neighbours? No problem! Just plug your headphones into the Headphone/Line Out jack and away you go – your sleeping neighbours won’t hear a thing because using this jack automatically mutes the amp’s speaker!

Moved to the country, and decided I wanted a setup that could sit, be organized, and could be turned on whenever the mood struck me. The catch was, I didn't want to buy anything too expensive, and I didn't want to be suckered into getting more than I needed. My biggest gripe these days is how hard it is for normal folks to sort through advertisements and elitism to find the "all you'll need" model of anything. From cars to computers to even food, it's impossible to know where your own satisfaction ends and excess begins.
I can say that this little amp is an exception for me. It is exactly, perfectly, everything I need; it's loud, sounds excellent, is small and lightweight, and is awesomely priced. Looks nice, too; the retro, low-profile vibe is perfect on display in my living room with my guitar hanging above it. I play mostly metal and hard-rock through it, and still haven't gotten anywhere near as loud as it can go. The sound is monstrous for its size, and the overdrive is more than sufficient for jamming on your own. Add a few pedals for fun, and baby, you got a stew goin.
The amp is great, and for the price it cannot be beat. If you're a beginner, it would be an excellent starter amp that would see you through many levels of skill building. If you're cramped for space or need to be able to easily move it, you can't get more sound in as small a package. If you're like me and have been playing for 20+ years, know the elitists are almost always wrong, and want killer amp for a sweetheart budget, then look no further.
First of all, this thing CAN get loud. I have heard people saying a practice amp cannot put out enough sound to play live gigs with, however this amp is powerful enough to fill small bars just fine.
Secondly, the clean tone is godly. Quite easy to get an incubus-like clean tone. With that being said, I REALLY wish it had built in reverb. Coming from an amp with built-in reverb, you may have some trouble adjusting to the lack there of. But for the price and size I guess you can't ask too much.
The built-in distortion is also quite breathtaking. It's hard to believe such a little amp is putting out that kind of sound while your playing it. My friend who is a die-hard Les Paul guy even said my strat sounded amazing put through that distortion. I can get a Bush-like dirty tone with ease on my fender strat SSS and the overdrive with gain turned up a bit.
Overall, I don't think you can get a better amp under $200, and CERTAINLY not under $100 as this was when I bought it. In addition to having the power to fill a decent sized venue, amazing tone (clean and dirty), and being small enough to fit anywhere and fit in your passenger seat, it looks very stylish too. I would recommend this amp 100% to anyone reading this.
You really cannot beat this amp for 70 bucks. Sure, you could spend 40-50 more and get a few more bells and whistles, but this has all the basics you need for a crisp, clean sound and even a little bit of overdrive crunch for those wanting a little edge to their tone. I chose this amp over two Vox amPlug headphone amps, which would have been 10 dollars more expensive, as I primarily play when my roommates are home, so I keep headphones plugged in at all times, and the sound quality through the headphones is great. If you want a little more versatility to your sound, I suggest throwing in a Behringer TO800, Vintage Tube Overdrive pedal, which you can pick up on Amazon for 20 bucks. It'll give you that raw, dreamy tube amp scream reminiscent of 90's brit pop and punk.
To top it all off, this amp is definitely the coolest looking 70 dollar amp you can find. It just looks so sexy. I really can't say enough good about this amp, so if you're looking for a cheap practice amp and you're on a really tight budget, don't hesitate, pick this baby up.

Su sonido es cálido pero crujiente, el sonido de vox está más presente que nunca, lo amo
Der schnell gelieferte kleine handliche und Freude bereitende VOX AMP macht Spaß am einstecken und gleich draufloslegen. Ich stell den VOX auf meinen 2 Meter langen Schreibtisch, wo sich TASCAM Modell 12 Homerecording befindet und PC. Also alles nebeneinander und immer greifbar.
Man soll schon auch die Bedienungsanleitung genau lesen und auf die Auswirkung jedes Schalters achten und ausprobieren - obwohl ja alle wissen was sie tun und es nicht lesen.
Ich habe mich an die Tipps von angesagten Gitarristen gehalten und auch mal an der Gitarre Volume und Tonregler bewusst zurückgenommen und erstaunliche Ergebnisse erhalten.
Man kann so bei hohen Lautstärken Rauschgeräusche eindämmen und super Töne erreichen - speziell beim Bridge Tonabnehmer.
Was nun wirklich beim VOX außergewöhnlich ist - ist der anschlagdynamische Ton.
Ich suchte einen Verstärker wie damals klingend analog und nur crunchigen Overdrive.
Eigentlich habe ich zuvor alle OVERDRIVE PEDALE ausprobiert und Ibanez Tube Screamer in verschieden Varianten gekauft - aber der Klang Bluesig crunchig kam nicht so schnell rüber.
Ich habe über Gebrauchtbörse ein VOX Overdrive Pedal gekauft und da war der Ton sofort da.
(Clapton/Hendrix/Gallagher/VAUGN) anstecken und passt. Warum? weil nicht viel schnickschnack.
Und deshalb VOX Pathfinder 10 zum Üben zu Hause mit oder ohne Kopfhörer oder für Studioaufnahmen.
Man kann siehe Anleitungen im Netz den Lautsprecher ganz leicht auf nächst größeren UPGRADEN oder auch die Lautsprecherkabel abklemmen und eine 4x12" Box dazu schalten - wenn man es unbedingt Laut und Professionel will. Aber einen stärkeren schweren AMP haben wir ja eh alle sowieso.
Abschließend überleg dir was du suchst dann ist die Freude groß.
