Title: New Amp;- Vox Pathfinder joins my other SS Amps
Post by: sollophonic on December 07, 2012, 07:02:10 PM
I was of the opinion that I took the love for the Pathfinder 15R with a pinch of salt, lots of love for it all over the place.

Decided that I would only buy one at a low price, figuring that the chassis, speaker and cab would make for a good tube amp build, if the sounds didn't remotely deliver.

B Stock one came up at a good price, so I took the chance.

Arrived the day of a rehearsal so I took it along as my rig (though I took a spare amp in case)

Needn't have worried, against a drummer, bass, vocals and two horns this map delivered clean/brink of break-up tones no problem. I couldn't really believe it, but this little amp delivered. Has its own sort of tube'ey tone of its own,and the speaker is ace.

Works well with all my guitars

The Vox Pathfinder is underrated. And cheap too. So cheap that when it was introduced, I bought two - just to be on the safe side!
