Introducing the new Valvetronix Pro Series – the pinnacle of VOX modeling amps. VOX Valvetronix amps are famous for their highly realistic amp models and their versatile array of in-demand sounds and effects. Now, VOX has created a new breed of Valvetronix amp: The Valvetronix Pro. The heart of every Valvetronix amp is the “Valve Reactor” circuit. First introduced in 2001, the Valve Reactor circuit uses a real vacuum tube to provide VTX300 Valvetronix amps with that all important true tube tone. For the Valvetronix Pro Series, the Valve Reactor circuit has been enhanced, using an EL84 tube in place of the traditional 12AX7 tube to create a more accurate tube sonic signature. In keeping with its flagship status, the Valvetronix Pro Series boasts 44 amp models – the most in any Valvetronix amp – along with a diverse selection of pedal, modulation, delay, and reverb effects to refine your sound, plus an external effects loop.

The speaker is also a crucial element of any amp’s sound. The Valvetronix Pro Series uses premium Celestion VOX NeoDog speakers, created using a lightweight and powerful neodymium magnet. As the name implies, these Valvetronix Pro Series models provide the sound, features, tone and operation that professionals demand, delivering superior sound in any musical situation.

VTX300 Neodymium 3-Piece Package Outfitted with distinctive flame-line anodized trim, the VTX300 Neodynium includes a main unit nearly identical to the VTX150; plus the matching V112-NE, offering an additional 12'' Celestion VOX NeoDog speaker; and the VC-12SV foot controller, doubling the number of user programs to 16 while providing powerful performance control!
