NU-X MP-3 Mighty Plug Pro
Posted: 03 Apr 2023, 14:39
After playing with this delightful device for the past couple of weeks, I can certainly recommend it to serious players who want the option of silent practicing without disturbing others.
It does offer great authentic amp sounds and the effects are a delight to be able to set up as a a comprehensive pedal board with everything a guitarist would ever need.
OK it doesn't have multi-tap 'Meazzi like' echoes but for practice purposes I can live without those (as Hank has done for the majority of a long career - just worth a mention that's all) . To get those Shadows sounds I combine the Reverb with the Delay and set the 'kick' to give the impression that the other three taps precede it. I can guarantee it works and I have played the full repertoire of Shads hits and not missed the mult-taps in any big way.
Where you lose on the lack of multi-tap echoes, you gain on the options to enhance your playing using the drums or busking track options, it really is good for exercising your licks and runs when there's no one else to play along side, I'm finding it particularly useful as I can sit alone practicing with a fabulous sound in my head from the headphones, without disturbing the household as they watch TV.
What I love about it is that the sounds are authentic and stimulating to hear. If you choose the AC30, it does sound like one, as do the Fender, Marshall and all the boutique models featured and same goes for the effects. Too often in the past I have tried similar products that don't sound as I wished and left me feeling disappointed, but the NU-X Mighty Plug Pro does the job admirably.
So there you have it folks, I said I'd let you know how I went on with it and for the money, less than £90 delivered, it's a winner for me.
