This Vox Valvetronix AD50VT-XL "Extreme Lead" Combo Amplifier was purchased brand new in 2008 from the legendary Richard's Rare Guitars in North Vancouver. πΈπ€ This is a powerful and versatile amp designed specifically for high-gain rock and metal tones, but it's flexible enough for many other styles. It's a hybrid amp, featuring Vox's Valve Reactor technology which uses a real 12AX7 tube in the power amp stage. This gives you the warm, responsive feel of a tube amp with the reliability and versatility of a solid-state digital modeler. It's loud enough for live performance but also has a built-in power amp level control on the back so you can adjust the output from zero to fifty watts to get great cranked-amp tones at bedroom volumes. It also has a two channel digital programmer.

It's a killer amp, sounds wicked. Perfect for anyone who wants big sound on a budget. Selling because I just don't use it anymore. I actually have probably only played a total of 20 hours or so on it.
NOTE ON CONDITION:
Right when I got home with it for the first time, the amp fell on its back and the power cord receptacle was pushed slightly into the chassis. The amp works perfectly and has never had any electrical issues, but you do have to hold the receptacle from the back with one hand while plugging in the power cord with the other. It's a simple quirk and the connection is solid once plugged in. Please see photos for details. Otherwise, the amp is in good cosmetic condition with minor scuffs from normal use.
