Question of the Day: What else would you like to know about the Vox Pathfinder 10?

[DisappearingNightly]

One mod that would very likely be a game changer with regard to the gain function on the drive/dirt channel would be to add a 1/4" speaker out jack. It's super easy to turn any small combo amp into a beast this way. A screwdriver, a 3/8" drill bit, a soldering iron and a couple hours of your time. There are some good tutorials on how to do it I did this mod to my Fender Champion 20 and that little amp went from a very high quality practice amp to something that, when I run it into a larger cab, rivals some of my favorite tube amps. I suspect that this Vox amp would perform similarly driving a bigger cab.

It's a great amp for pedals! Takes them so well huge plus that you could hit on. As for a negative, lack of reverb was one for me.

Check out the famous Pathfinder 10 LED mod. Vastly improves the amp in overdrive mode.

I saw this amp on Amazon for $109 and your video has me even more interested in picking one up. I’ve always used fender amps, typically 2x12 tube combos but have always been a fan of small solid state practice amps. I have an old frontman reverb that I use occasionally for recording in situations that my twin reverb isn’t suited for. I’ve been wanting a new small practice/recoding amp and had never heard of the pathfinder. I think your video has me convinced with those clean tones.

Great review. Straight into it, giving demos and leaving it open for us to decide for ourselves 👌

[ScareDe]

I love this amp. I have the Union Jack one. It is a joy to play with and it looks like a collectible item.

I had the Vox parhfinder 3 years ago and it was awsome. Planning to buy a new one found your channel and I decided to the Orange Crush12, I received it today and I noticed white noise or humling when the treble is up. Is that normal?

[KIRBA]

Actually persuaded me to get the amp. Nice little box for home stuffs.

[alandiaz]

Hi! Can the vox pathfinder 10 be used in an apartment without bothering the neighbors?
I'm a beginner looking for my first amp. Thanks!

[YY-bvik]

How could I get the Vox sound on a champion 40 ?

[Blumencomusic]

Sir i wanna to ask some question. Can i play with the backing trac ? Since this amp doesn't have the aux channel? Thank you

[jeanpat]

I like the vid about this amp absolutly the best ! I was convince baught it and play it with in small bars and small gigs Clean fabulous crunch perfect with a little drive in front of it ! In one word phenomenal for the price !

[TheTwangKings]

None of the negatives are a problem. Anyone using this amp will most likely be using effects with eq. As long the overall tone is good, no big issues.

[valentinch]

Another advantage of this amp is the excellent sound quality through the headphone jack. It’s great for recording.

Great to have you back, by the way!
