The limited edition design also makes it an attractive choice for collectors and fans of Brian May’s legendary sound.

Brian May Signature Rock Tone

The VOX MV50 Brian May is voiced to capture the unique tonal character associated with Brian May’s famous guitar sound. It delivers a rich combination of clarity, harmonic detail, powerful midrange presence, and expressive overdrive response, making it suitable for classic rock rhythm tones and soaring lead guitar performances.

The amplifier’s design focuses on achieving a dynamic playing feel, allowing guitarists to control their tone through picking strength, guitar volume adjustments, and playing technique.

Nutube Technology for Authentic Tube Response

At the core of the MV50 Brian May is VOX Nutube technology, an innovative vacuum tube design that provides the natural response and harmonic characteristics associated with traditional tube amplifiers while maintaining a compact and lightweight format.

Nutube delivers rich harmonic content, dynamic touch response, and natural amplifier interaction, allowing the MV50 Brian May to provide an expressive playing experience similar to larger tube amplifier designs.

Built-In Treble Booster for Classic Brian May Sound

The VOX MV50 Brian May features a built-in treble booster inspired by the tonal shaping used to create Brian May’s signature guitar sound. The integrated booster can be switched on or off, allowing players to access enhanced brightness, increased drive, and stronger harmonic presence without requiring an additional pedal.

With the treble booster engaged, guitarists can achieve a more aggressive and expressive lead tone with enhanced definition and sustain.

Compact Amplifier with Powerful Output

Despite its compact size, the MV50 Brian May delivers impressive output capability. The amplifier head provides up to 50 watts of power when connected to a suitable speaker cabinet, making it capable of handling practice sessions, recording environments, rehearsals, and live performance situations.

50 W RMS: When connected to a 4-ohm speaker load.
25 W RMS: When connected to an 8-ohm speaker load.
12.5 W RMS: When connected to a 16-ohm speaker load.

Matching VOX Speaker Cabinet Included

The Limited Edition Set includes a matching VOX 1x8-inch speaker cabinet designed to complement the MV50 Brian May amplifier head. This compact speaker cabinet provides a balanced tonal response while maintaining the portability and convenience of the complete amplifier system.

The amplifier and speaker combination delivers a complete guitar rig that is easy to transport while providing the character and performance expected from VOX equipment.

This makes the amplifier suitable for home studios, recording sessions, and quiet practice environments where high-quality guitar tone is required without excessive volume.

Ultra-Portable Amplifier Design

One of the defining features of the MV50 series is its compact and lightweight construction. The amplifier head is small enough to fit into a gig bag or backpack, making it an excellent choice for musicians who need professional-quality tone in a highly portable format.

The lightweight design provides the convenience of modern amplifier technology while maintaining the expressive response expected from a tube-style amplifier.
