Peavey Vypyr VIP 2 1x12" 40W Modelling Guitar Amp Combo
Product no: 9000-0005-5106 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The Peavey Vyper VIP 2 is an inconceivably complete 40-Watt, 1x12-inch modelling guitar amplifier for home, stage or practice session use. Flexible as it is, this affordable and great-sounding amp doesn't just take your electric guitar, you're also free to plug in a bass or acoustic model. After plugging either one in, all you have to do is select the right instrument and the amplifier will take care of the settings.

Teeming with Sounds

Teeming with guitar sounds, this Peavey amp gives you the complete VIP treatment by offering up 36 amp models - some of which are highly convincing tube amps - plus another six bass guitar amps and six acoustic guitar amps. Besides amp simulations, you're even getting 26 directly accessible stompbox effects and 10 instrument simulations, including a 7-string and 12-string guitar, a resonator guitar, a violin and a bass guitar.

Practical Connections & Controls

The handy controls on the front panel of the VIP 2 make it a remarkably accessible amplifier that doesn't necessarily need to be hooked up to a computer, but can be. Thanks to a USB port, the amp can double as an audio interface and used to record to a laptop. Meanwhile, an AUX input and headphone jack complete the practical I/O section of this great-sounding and greatly compelling modelling amplifier.

De Peavey Vypyr VIP 2 is een prachtige versterker, mijn zoon en ik zijn beginnende gitaar spelers maar met deze versterker heeft hij en ik veel meer plezier in het spelen.

Autumnal Offerings from Fender

Wednesday 28 October 2015 By Richard | Bax Music

Whether you've already started thinking about your Christmas shopping list or not, Fender has one or two items you might want to add to it. Guitarists can choose from a Special Edition Standard Stratocaster Black MN, aChampion 100 Snow White amplifier combo, or even a Rustler six-string Banjo! Please note that the guitar and the amplifier are strictly limited editions, so if you want one, you'll have to act quickly.

The Blackstar Artist Series: Classic and Versatile

Monday 2 November 2015 By Richard | Bax Music

Blackstar has gone from a newcomer to an established name in a short space of time. One of their greatest assets is the Infinite Shape Feature or ISF circuit (as it's otherwise known) that they developed themselves. With the ISF circuit, Blackstar managed to greatly increase the versatility of tube amplifiers without the use of digital technology. The new Artist 15 and Artist 30 models both have an ISF circuit fitted and can produce the typical American 6L6 sound, as well as beloved British AC clean and crunch.

The VOX VTX Series - Evolution Accelerated

Wednesday 4 November 2015 By Richard | Bax Music

It's already been more than 10 years since VOX turned the amplifier world on its head with the Valvetronix series. This series of amps combined digital modelling technology with convincing tube sounds. Since then, models have slowly but steadily improved along with digital technology. Now however, the time is ripe for VOX to introduce another series that, rather than show another slow and steady improvement, offer something more like evolution accelerated. Meet the VT20X, the VT40X and the VT100X, the first three models from the new series.

This amp, preceded by the Nomad, Mini Rectifier Twenty-Five and the Caliber, has been released onto Mesa's mini platform in a combo as well as a head version.

Wednesday 20 January 2016 By Lizanne

Renowned instrument colossus Roland first introduced their Blues Cube amplifiers back in the 1990's. The idea was simply to program a transistor amp to sound like a tube amp. Now, more than twenty years down the line, they've perfected that idea. The result is the brand-new Blues Cube Hot: a portable 3-watt combo in Black and Vintage Blond.
