hi,with vox you can change the wattage from 0 to 100. say if you turn your wattrage down to 30
you will get a natural distortion at a lower volumn.cabinet types will give natural distortion also.
if you set a cabinet type at 1X 12' SPEAKER AND 60 WATT OUTPUT YOU'LL GET A WONDERFUL
distortion sound with sustain.

hi , you can get a crystal clear sound if needed with the VOX valvatronic 100 at a high volumn.
it puts out all you need in volumn untill the time comes for the mike.the effects and cabinet types
are very good ,but if you want a powerfull 100 watt amp. the twin celestian blue 12" speakers do
a hellof a job.

hi, it's rod again. believe me there is and there has never been a sound hole pick up
that gives you a natural accoustic sound.the pick up for a good sound is an in body p/u.
it gives you the accoustic effect thatis natural,a sound hole p/u picks up the strings ,you
may as well play a solid body.

                                                                         good luck,rod.

if you use a high shielded cable it reduces much of the noise.

HI,ALL THE OTHER GUY'S POST ARE RIGHT. IT DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU WANT TO PLAY WHERE.ALL I AM SAYING INSTEAD OF ALWAYS UPGRADEING AND LOSEING $ ON TRADE IN THE
VOX TWIN WITH 100 WATTS OF POWER IS ALL YOU WILL EVER NEED OR WANT.IF YOU NEED MORE JUICE THEN MIKES ARE USED.

                              SORRY FOR THE MIS INFO.

Hey all,

Thinking about having a pickup put in my Washburn D10s acoustic.  Have been playing in church with a soundhole type pickup and was thinking it might be a little easier to be able to just plug in.  Any suggestions would be appreciated, as I have no experience in this area. 

I know I want to play amplified, but just can't afford the Taylor 314ce I have my eye on just yet.  Thought that adding a pickup to my existing guitar might be a good solution in the mean time.

Thanks!

ADDING A GOOD PICK UP WILL ENHANCE THE SOUND OF YOUR WASHBURN I HAVE ONE.HOWEVER THEY CAN BE EXPENSIVE
AND CUT INTO YOUR SAVING FOR AN AMP.
I WOULD STILL INVEST IN A MID RANGE PRICED P/UP,YOU WILL LOVE THE SOUND YOUR WASHBURN PUTS OUT.

Are you plagued by fuzz and static at present Montana? If you have a 50hz type hum it may be you have a classic single coil guitar.

With many amps geting a fuzzy 'breaking-up' sound is part of the desired effect. So that Vox Valvetronic will allow you to select an amp sound that is screaming and dirty if you want it. If however you are a really clean sound then you want a solid state or transistor amp such as a Roland.

Not certain what you want? Buy a Line6 Pocket Pod, hook it up to the hi-fi or headphones and play with all the amp models. When you find sounds you like note what amps/effects are involved, you can then find a real amp that matches.

THAT IS THE BEST IDEA SO FAR I HAVE LINE 6 XT BUT THEY
ARE EXPENSIVE.THE VOX HAS 11 DIFFERENT AMP. SETTING BUILT IN.
