Vox MV50-HG Hi-Gain Guitar Amplifier Head

The MV50 High Gain redefines what’s possible in a compact amplifier head, weighing just 540 grams while pumping out a massive 50W of power through its revolutionary Nutube vacuum tube technology. This lightweight powerhouse is specifically engineered for modern high-gain applications, featuring a MID CONTROL SWITCH that allows you to boost or cut mid-frequencies for maximum versatility. The result is an edgy sound with enhanced highs and lows that excels at both crushing riffs and thick lead tones that cut through any mix.

Part of VOX’s expanding MV50 series, the High Gain joins the AC, Clean, Rock, and Boutique models in offering surprisingly powerful sound from an incredibly compact form factor. The Nutube technology preserves that distinctive vacuum tube drive and fat tone character whilst enabling the ultra-lightweight design that has amazed guitarists worldwide. Combined with carefully crafted analogue circuitry that replicates the complex interactions of traditional valve amps, you get lightning-fast response and overwhelming dynamics in a package that defies expectations.

Versatility extends to speaker matching, with the rear-mounted EQ switch offering FLAT and DEEP settings to optimise performance with different cabinet sizes. The DEEP mode works brilliantly with compact cabinets like the BC108, emphasising rich low frequencies while taming harsh highs, whilst FLAT mode lets larger conventional cabinets shine with their natural characteristics. For silent practice and recording, the line/headphone output connects directly to mixers, interfaces, or headphones, featuring cabinet simulation circuitry developed in consultation with seasoned recording engineers using premium microphones and vintage preamps for authentic studio-quality sound.
