I don't normally give out 9 stars, but in this case, the Vox Night Train deserves it. The only reason why I held back one star is due to the lack of effects loop--it would've made this amp a perfect one for me. It's a very cool looking amp that puts out a phenomenal range of guitar tone from Fender clean and Vox jangles to death metal (with right pickups and dirt pedal). I am really happy with the amp; I am tempted to mod it for an effect loop addition, since I know I will be keeping the amp for life, the loss of warranty doesn't concern me (if it breaks, I'll just take it to a local tech, no biggie.)

It came with a canvas (black) bag with shoulder strap. I found out that they're recalling the shoulder strap due to possible breakage. The only feature I wish it had is the effects loop. The amp is built like a tank. I love the penthode and triode mode switch; full eq section with treble, mid and bass dials; master volume and gain dials; thick and bright switch--for full range of tone and flexibility.

It's a tube amp with power, standby, penthode/triode switches, treble, mid, bass, gain, and volume dials, and thick and bright switch. Set it up like how you like it and play.

It's made in Vietnam but designed in England and made under Vox supervision. Did I tell you already that it's built like a tank? It's built like a tank. You could probably drag it behind your truck for a mile and it will play. After you dust it off, of course. I only wish Vox opened up a manufacturing plant here in the States, or even in England.

It's an expensive amp at $499, especially for a 15-watter. You can buy a Fender Blues Junior (15-watt) for the same price and the BJ is a combo, whileas the NT is a head.

I have not had the pleasure of dealing directly with Vox for product support. I have visited Vox website and the forum there. Seemed to be friendly.

It's a cooling looking amp. In fact, I think it's the best looking small amp out there right now. People compare it to the Orange Tiny Terror; I think the OTT looks downright ugly with its graffiti graphics. The Vox NT looks classy and high end.
