VOX announces Brian May Signature Series amPlug and MV50 models

VOX announces the Brian May Signature Series, which includes two new mini-amps developed in collaboration with legendary Queen guitarist Sir Brian May, making his iconic tone accessible to all. These products, each designed as a nod to May’s classic custom-constructed red-and-black “Red Special” guitar, include the amPlug Brian May guitar headphone amplifier and the MV50 Brian May miniature 50W amplifier head, along with two Limited Edition bundles that pair each of these products with a matching cabinet and other accessories (specifically, a collectible keychain and postcards).

Taking its form factor from the VOX amPlug series of palm-sized, battery powered, headphone guitar amplifiers, the amPlug Brian May guitar headphone amplifier provides users with the legendary guitarist’s classic tone anytime, anywhere – through any set of standard headphones. Designed to recreate the unique sound of the signal chain of May’s “Red Special” guitar and cranked AC30, this special edition of the amPlug will thrill guitarists and Queen fans everywhere.

When matched with its cabinet, “It’s perfect for any smaller show, and if you want to put a mic in front of it, it’ll do for your big gigs as well. I wouldn't mind going on some future stadium gig and seeing how this shapes up,” said Brian May.

These products are now available, with U.S. MAP pricing as follows:

  • amPlug Brian May guitar headphone amplifier: $59.99
  • MV50 Brian May miniature amplifier head: $249.99
  • amPlug Brian May collector’s bundle Set (including matching cabinet and accessories): $149.99
  • MV50 Brian May collector’s bundle Set (including matching cabinet and accessories): $399.99
