@@jasondorsey7110 That is correct sir. I had said in another post someone had put he copied Rorys sound. I replied Sir Brian would be the first to say he got it from Rory very humbly as a young man when asked. Class gentleman.
Such a humble man he is. And a composed and learned man too. His sound was quickly a trademark to me and many I believe when I know about him 25 years ago. God bless him and his loved ones. ❤
That is super cool! Brian May seems like one of the genuinely nicest guys in music, not to mention just a super cool human being. I’d love to just sit in a room and hear him talk about gear, music, and his life. Oh, and these amps are super cool, too! LOL
Love Brian May! I remember the first solo I ever learned was the we will rock you solo Queen was really my introduction into music and I’m so grateful to Brian May’s playing
@@itslikethesamebutdifferent8020 I should clear things up. I mean as a sort of updated Brian May family of amps as they release these new models. Plugin to AC30 combo of sorts would be just great to see as a fan.
I have used or tied almost every gadget, tone bender, amp setting, and gimmick known to man, I still declare myself useless! I might get one of these and become a better man. Brian May is unique. I salute you Sir and thank you for the years of pleasure you and Queen gave us.
The image of Brian May in the Bohemian Rhapsody video, that sound and the guitar hero image was burned into my memory at age ten and utterly determined the direction of my life. I'd love to meet him and shake his hand.
Very Cool, Thankyou. Proud Vox Valvetronix VT40+ owner here. Such an amazing Amp and so much fun to play through. Very Interested in The Brian May Series. Cheers
I love Brian May's iconic sound, and wish that the "Vox AmPlug2 Brian May" would exist as a floor pedal where you could add and remove the effects that are typical of Brian's sound. I am convinced that such a pedal would make numerous guitarists happy. With guitaristic greetings from Germany Mic 🙂
Rory is one of my favourite guitarists of all time and Queen is what first got me into music before I heard rory. This product to me is a tribute to both of them. I'm buying this rn, Love you May and Gallagher
As a follow-up on my earlier post: Just received my AmPlug Brian May! 👍 Straight out of the wrapper, batteries (which are included!!) put in, and plugged into our stereo in the living room. Sounds só good.... 😎👍 The stereo FX are really well done (instant Brighton Rock, just couldn't contain myself 🤣) The green channel (regular AC30 crunch tone) itself is just beautiful: I started with tone halfway and gain very low, and it certainly has thát chime you'd expect. And *then* you gradually turn up the gain.... 🤘😎🤘 The red channel (with the phenomenal Trebleboost) brings it to a whole new level, again. Bri-lliant... Obviously when you're going for thát classic Brain May tone, you'll best use singlecoil pickups. Of course it'll work with humbuckers, but you will probably lose some clarity (haven't tried that yet). And the red channel is pretty noisy too - again: I play singlecoils, so that makes sense. I absolutely love it... This is my 5th AmPlug (so far!!), and they are just borderline-ridiculously useful & great to play around with! I've successfully recorded with them before (the Bass plug is so *fat* and punchy!) and this one will undoubtedly do great as well... As a (predominantly) Marshall user, I've been pleasantly surprised repeatedly by the new Vox gear! Recently found a Valvetronix 100W head with 4x12 cab, and it really adds a lot of sonic options... Thanks Vox!!! Can't wait to see what you come up with next 👍😎🙏🙏🦊 And obviously many *many* thanks to Sir Bri as well 😀👍🙏
My first amp was a XOX AC30 - bought second hand. I am not a professional musician, I am also over seventy. But I still joy music, and play for a hobby. My current amp is a VOX VT 40+. It is a brilliant piece of kit. I feel somewhat loyal to VOX, because they were originally made in Dartford, where I was born. Alright. I would like to also get hold of a Marshall High Wat stack - but where am I going to use it?
Interesting stuff! I got the Vox MV50 Clean as a pedal platform / small backup amp. It's really better than expected and these Brian May signature amps are probably a good option for all who want that sound but have limited money.
Really stoked to see these amps!! 😀👍 I'm definitely getting the Amplug, as I've already have a few of those (AC30, Bass, and the brilliant Satriani) and they're incredible sounding.... So I expect nothing less from this red baby 😜👍 The MV amp, however, should - in my opinion - come with a 1x12" cab instead of 1x8"... But that's just me - I have cabs, so just the RedHead will do me 😎🙏
That's cool to hear that you have some of the other Amplug models and like them, because I'm totally thinking about getting this one myself! I think with my BMG Special plugged into it, I should at least get close to that trademark Brian May tone!
@@RedSpecialSuomi are you sure that the two amps are same except the KAT treble booster?? I own MV50AC with Fryer TB connected, but it does not generate such distorted sound as this TH-cam. I guess MV50BM may have more gain without TB.
@@dairyoma They're running it through a small cab. Of course it's gonna sound like that. I run my MV50AC with the Treble Booster Classic with the BC 112 cab and it sings!
I have an MV50 clean, amazing tone, more than loud enough to gig with through a 2x12 or 4x14, BUT there is no reverb or effects loop so no proper way to add one. Vox have you added one to this?
So will I get a good tone with a Fender Performer Stratocaster. Bacause at the moment I‘ll not buy the guitar also, even though the Red Special is amazing
The are same don’t worry about , the only real difference is the Brian May included a Kat treble booster in the circuit . You can buy for your mv50 separate treble booster
Dear VOX Amps, do you plan to have those Brian May models available here in the USA? There are some of us out here who are also enamered by Sir Brian! Also if you could bring back his signature AC 30.
The MV series head uses NUtube tech. The headphone amplug is uh duh solid state digital modeling. Tubes are great but Solid State digital and analog have come full circle these last 5 years. It's quite extrodinary. i've sold my heavy ancient tube gear in favor of quilter amps...but Fender Tonemaster is great, Vox MV and Super Beetle mini are awesome....BOSS is kicking all sorts of ass with Katana and Nextone.
@@topfacemod totally agree, I myself have the mini super beetle and it’s fantastic, there’s also the new Roland blues cube series along with everything else you mentioned, I personally want the blues cube artist one
@@topfacemod I have an old Boss Zoom handheld guitar signal processor from like 2005 and I like it a lot too, I plug in in and use headphones and it’s got some great built in crunch tones.
@@sassycat My zoo is full, but it's always fun to try something new. I'm more interested in the bmg-arielle, which has a similar neck profile to the original red special. That's 24 frets and a nut width of 45mm. I've heard that some pick up the guitar and find that they can't play it at all because of the neck profile, but I can get by with anything and like to play guitars with different neck profiles. As long as this thing rocks, my world is fine 🚀 I am happy that Brian is completely healthy again and enjoys life after his difficult time. Have a good one Sassy
We love you sir
God bless Sir Brian May and Rory Gallagher!! Thanks Vox for both artists in one amp!
Brian May is always humble and respectful about his inspirations, whether it's Rory or Clapton or Les Paul etc...he's a real professional
@@jasondorsey7110 That is correct sir. I had said in another post someone had put he copied Rorys sound. I replied Sir Brian would be the first to say he got it from Rory very humbly as a young man when asked. Class gentleman.
I guess but Brian is on record saying he didn't like the Vox turned up... until he put the treble booster in the chain.
Brian may !!!!! 🙌
An AC-30, turned up, is a glorious thing!
Way to go, Dr Bri!
It's also stupidly loud, and most people cannot realistically do it without getting Police at their door. These are great substitutes.
So nice to hear him play "It's Late" - very overlooked song.
Such a humble man he is. And a composed and learned man too. His sound was quickly a trademark to me and many I believe when I know about him 25 years ago. God bless him and his loved ones. ❤

Great to have Brian recognized with the Vox sound, would be great to see a full size signature Ac15/30 next 👍🏻
They already did a signature AC30 many years ago. Kind of brittle to use on a live gig without a power soak.
They already did that, the Brian May Vox ac30 amp, I have one.
That is brutle, as in ear crushing and police attracting.

Pete Mallandrone-the unsung part of the legendary sound!!! What a hero
I can’t imagine not loving Brian May
You’re a truly great person, I will do my best to get one of these Sir Brian May.

Don't give up your AC30 Brian.That small amp may sound good but your AC30 sounds great.
I just ordered one.. Can't wait,,
All hail Brian May!
Both products sound great
I want It All....
Yes I want it all....Yeah Yeah!! Absolutely Brilliant!! Take my money @VoxAmps
Great little set-up, sounds awesome.
These look cool as hell.
nothing new. old designs, eq'ed slightly different. HOTONE amps did all these years ago. And the vox plug has been around for a decade.
Oh I got to have one of those !!
Maybe we can get a early Ritchie blackmore sound from this Brian may signature mv50 and amplug
I'll have one of those,thank you! Love the red tone

Oh my God!!!! Amazing!!!!!!!
Vox makes sure I have things to spend my money on. Gallagher/May amp is a must for me
I run a tele into an AC 30 Amplug into a Palmer Direct PDI-09 out to FOH. Sounds like a real vintage AC30.

WHERE'S THE SODDING FX LOOP!!!!!
I bought the mv50 ac a couple of months ago and now they release a Brian May version. I think I should have waited a bit longer
Don’t worry about , they are basically the same , the only difference is the Brian May version included a Kat treble booster

Supongo que necesitaré una red special guitar también...
Sounds great 👍
This is awesome!
Cool!!! Does it have send and return jacks?
Not bad. Get a AC-30 vintage. Talk about clean, divine POWER. Love that amp.

Great 🤗❣
Don't forget the most important factor in Brian's guitar tone; the sixpence coin!
its coin emulator option can do that, settings are sixpence, us quarter, mexican peso, modern euro and washer found on the curb.
I don't think I'd be able to hold six at once
Has to be a _signature series_ coin at 3 times the price or else it won't work.
Fair play.
G R E A T!
RORY!!!
So cool
Gunna sell a million of these
i love queen & brian
but i sold all my vox amps and never looked back
i DO have the delaylab still though 😊
to clarify they are NOT BAD amps
just not quite what we were going for 😅
beatles tone = flatwound strings deeptones & vox high treble amps🎉
Brown May is so cool
I wanted a BMG with that color, but I had to get a red one due to limited availability:(
How is it that small 🤯
Всегда красиво получается умеют проффесионалы
So will I get a good tone with a Fender Performer Stratocaster. Bacause at the moment I‘ll not buy the guitar also, even though the Red Special is amazing
The old Blue Tonelab was the best thing Vox ever made.
Can the amplug be used with humbuckers?
Just take my money...🤘
Nice ;)
Imagine him bringing this to a Stadium Gig, (as he said) You wouldn't see it, I wonder how the sound would be??
BTW, that amp is beautiful.
Absolutely love Brian but it seems over priced as you can get an actual ac30 for ‘not too much more’
I wish it was packed in a solid Combo ...
All this small things are not mine...
I've got a MV50 AC, what's the difference?
The are same don’t worry about , the only real difference is the Brian May included a Kat treble booster in the circuit . You can buy for your mv50 separate treble booster
🥺🎉Superbe
i love you
If you’re a guitarist and don’t own at least one MV50, do you even guitar bro? 😂 Great little amps, really want Brian’s to add to my collection!
I have a love/hate relationships with AC30s, impractically loud, back breakingly heavy, unreliable. But boy do they sound good.
Dear VOX Amps, do you plan to have those Brian May models available here in the USA? There are some of us out here who are also enamered by Sir Brian! Also if you could bring back his signature AC 30.
Check reverb dude. They have the amplug combo and the mv50 combo.
@@murdock8068 i just recently found out. Definitely going there.
@@joerojas5448 No worries brother. Good luck with your purchase and hope it serves you well my friend.
I like the idea of the MV50s, but I just wished it didn't looked like a toy.
Now a The Edge one!!!
This sounds really really fizzy, gosh I was expecting summat smoother. Hopefully it'll be different in't shops.
50w’s!? Why so much for such a small tube amp? I assume it’s tube. The headphone one isn’t but oh well.
