That is pretty damn impressive for the price. Great demo as always, thanks Brett.

Was on the fence of trying one of these until I heard your demo. You got some really great sounds out of this unit. Thanks

These things just make me want to go hug my Valco amp from the 50's.
Two knobs and three inputs, one for accordion.

I giged with one of these every weekend this last summer and it was a game changer for my direct tone. Glad I watched this. Looks like I need to update my pedal. First firmware did not save value changes, basically only what blocks were on or off. Thanks for the video!

Covid took a pretty big bite out of my guitarsenal and gear over the last few years.
All my amps, all my pedals, an AXFX Ultra, a Victory V4 preamp, and 10 out of 12 guitars!
All sold to make ends meet. 😩
Currently getting by with my Agile Les Pau, Modded Squire Affinity Jazzmaster HH, BiasFX, a Midicommander foot switch, and an Orange OMEC Teleport for on the go via iOS.
This little NU-X box may be just what I've been looking for to cut the cord er um, lighting cable.
Wish it had a dual amp signal flow tho.
I'm kinda keen lately with combining an crunchy/clean AC30 style (wet) amp with a gainy Dual Rect (dry) amp ala The Foo's Colour and the Shape album.
Such a great all 'rounder workhorse tone IMO.

Fantastic demo as always Burgs!
Cheers!

I'll give them due credit. Back before the Verdugo series came out Nu-X were just another Chinese pedal company making cheap knock-offs of well-known pedals. Now I wouldn't call them 'originators' but they are making some good quality gear at reasonable prices and they have distinctive features. I think I said this about the Valeton GP-100 - If you're in a studio layering up guitar tones these kinds of devices are a god-send. Fifteen years ago I was recording a demo in a London studio and recorded most of the guitar tracks using a Behringer V-Amp 2. The engineer kind of sneered at it but once we started recording I got the sounds I needed quickly. All the time saved allowed for more attention on the vocals and final mix. When it was finished I was complemented on my guitar sounds!😮 The big amp in the live room sounded better as you'd expect but for all the extra textures I didn't need it at all.

Great demo. It’s sounds pretty good considering the price however I wonder what it feels like playing through one. Regardless of the unit, this gentleman is one of the best demonstrators on YouTube.

Just grabbed a used one for $150USD. Excellent price point for an impressively flexible little practice/travel amp. I'm using it as a way to get decent tones for practice in my office.
