Rocktron Velocity 50 Watt Stereo Guitar Amplifier With Digital Delay Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have always been a Rocktron user with my VooDu Valve. Love it. Needed something for the road, and at $168 on Amazon (over $230 everywhere else) this was a steal. I mostly use the clean channel since it breaks up wonderfully with use of the GAIN knob. Combined with the PUPs and POTs on my guitars (EMG's on my USA Made Prodigy, and my PRS SE Custom) I can basically set the break-up levels and tone to anything I want. Bought generic foot switches at B&H for $40 combined!! And have all I need for small gigs and rehearsal. I use no pedals with this AMP, just straight in. The lead (OD) channel is heavy over the top, good for Metal style, or OD's solo's.
I use it sparingly. The good thing is that with separate GAIN & VOLUME settings per channel you can switch over without blowing the windows out.
It has 2 x 10" which create more than enough surface to make this LOUD! even on volume level 2.

I haven't regretted this one moment, especially not, since I can use the LINE-OUT on the back to record with as well, it comes out after the pre-amp & effects allowing me to go into a different power amp.

Would have been complete with Reverb, but that is a different model. Why Rocktron decided to create a model with Chorus & Delay and a separate one with Chorus & Reverb is unclear (to me at least). I consciously chose the delay version and love it.

I tried many modeling amps, and they don't work for me. I don't like Line 6 sounds (tried from POD to the Spider Valve base), the Peavey's are not strong enough, and the Behrenger has too many quality issues.

I get all the sounds I need from this one by using my PUP switching, tone & volume knobs, plus having the Fender & Humbucker guitars, I get more than enough out of this. I learned long ago that you don't need a 1,000 effects to be a good player. You need ears, fingers, and practice. LOTS of it. :)

Enjoy,
JJC
