![]() ![]() I still have my opinions on the place - but it's a good place to go (off-peak hours only!) if you want to try out some new stuff, or get a good deal with one of their sales. They have a 30 day return policy, and the guy didn't try to sell him on another else, or give him a hard time for returning it. He had them for 28 days, and the return process was painless. Speaker Wiring Harness: Speaker wiring harnesses make connections between your new speakers and your vehicle’s factory speaker plugs. The Cambridge 15 is basically a Pathfinder with a tube preamp and mid boost. It’s a keeper for sure, just hope the tremolo optocoupler can hold up. I have a Cambridge 15 now, one that I mistook for a Pathfinder and paid 70 bucks for. On a side note - my friend went with me to return his studio monitors he bought to use with his Pod Xt Live. 2 Welcome to the club I had a few Pathfinder 15Rs, moved them on but they are great little amps. ![]() He even included a new 10' speaker cable for it. I like my tone on the anti-twangy side, so this was perfect! It is very warm.Īnother surprise of this 15 watt amp is the bottom end it has - the amp has a very warm tone to it, with great bottom end. The tremolo really sounds fantastic on this amp. The boost feature makes it a bit muddy, but workable. Crank it up a bit and it starts to break up like a tube amp. The gain control works great - back it down and nice clean tones. Second impression - tone! Man this thing has it in spades! I grabbed a nearby '52Ri ($1,300? pthh) and messed around with it. Cool look to it, but tinier than I had expected. It looked "cute", but I was surprised how small the amp was. Its a very small amp, although I dont remember the speaker size. The price on it was $279 ($20 less than MF).įirst thoughts - tiny. The Vox Pathfinder Series Pathfinder 15R is a small combination amp for electric guitar. The Fender is completely handwired, has a solid pine cab, uses a Weber Alnico speaker and lists for 1200. These may be reusable if you clean them up. You can see the insulating mica sheet and shoulder washer in your picture. The metal tab needs to be insulated from the aluminum part. I paid 70 for the Vox and 50 for the speaker. One more thing: Make sure you mount the new power amp chip properly. He said he thought they had one of the mini stacks! So he looked around, and sure enough, right by the exit was a Vox SMR (right next to a Marshall mini full stack!). I plugged it back into the little Vox Pathfinder. Getting ready to leave I casually asked one of the salesguys (a few guys there are actually decent - when it's not busy, they're there to help you, but don't stand on top of you) if they had any pathfinders. I went to GC, and walked around, say some Vox Valvetronix amps, but no pathfinders. ![]()
