Vox Pathfinder 10 User Manual

any thanks for adding the VOX Pathfinder 10
amp to your sonic arsenal. As you will quickly
find out, this eye catchingly classy little amp
sounds as good as it looks and will provide you with a
plethora of guitar tones that not only sound great but feel
1
1. INPUT Jack
This, believe it or not, is where you plug your guitar into
the amp! Make sure you use a good quality guitar cable
to do this.
2. GAIN Control
This adjusts the overall preamp gain of the amplifier. This
control can produce a wide variety of killer tones - from
clean to crunchy to crazy and all points in-between! What
you get all depends on how you dial this control in and
also how you have the Clean/Overdrive Switch (3) set. In
both Switch modes - Clean & Overdrive - turning the
Gain control down (i.e. counter clockwise) will clean up
your sound while cranking it up (i.e. turning it clockwise)
will dirty things up. The possibilities are endless I tell ya!
3. CLEAN/OVERDRIVE Switch
As its name suggests, this switch puts the preamp of your
Pathfinder 10 in one of two distinctly different modes -
Clean (switch "out") or Overdrive (switch "in"). And, as
you'd expect, the Overdrive mode has bags more gain
(read: ability to distort in a rocking way!) than the Clean
mode. So, if you want more gain just press this sucker in
and let rip!
4. TREBLE Control
This adjusts the treble (high) frequencies in your tone. It
can take your sound from soft and round, to bright and
cutting, and any point in-between.

great too! Your new Pathfinder is perfect for practicing,
jamming with your friends or, if you're that way inclined,
just annoying your neighbours! Let's take a quick tour of
the features 'n' controls that make your new Pathfinder 10
as flexible as it is compact 'n' toneful...

5. BASS Control
This adjusts the bass (low) frequencies in your tone. It
can take your sound from warm and light, to dark and
heavy and any point in-between.
6. VOLUME Control
Amazingly enough, this one determines the overall
volume of the amplifier - hence its name! Setting this
control high while keeping the Gain low works well for
clean sounds (HINT: make sure the Clean/Overdrive
Switch is "out" if you wanna go clean!), while setting the
Master Volume lower, engaging the Overdrive mode and
turning up the Gain will give you a fat, distorted sound at
a lower, "bedroom friendly" volume.
7. HEADPHONE/LINE OUT Jack
This dual output carries a specially filtered signal for use
with either headphones or for direct connection to a
soundboard or recording console. The LINE OUT gives
you a good sounding signal for recording or live work
without having to mic up the amp.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Connecting the headphones
here mutes the internal speaker...making this
facility perfect for late night, "silent" practice!
