The V9168 Pathfinder 15 and V9168R Pathfinder 15R with Reverb were small solid state combo amps introduced by Vox in 2001. These amps replaced the V9158 Pathfinder Vox introduced in 1999.
After more than twelve years of production, Vox finally retired the P15R Pathfinder Reverb in January 2013.
This was one of my favorite amps from Vox, despite it's low price. It has all the vintage style Vox cosmetics right, including gold string in the cabinet sides, top, and bottom. Later Vox models in the low to mid price range would drop the use of gold string.
Although solid state, this amp had an amazing tube like tone. In addition to Gain, Volume, Treble, and Bass Controls, the P15R even includes Tremolo and spring based Reverb. A Boost switch dramatically increases gain and overdrive.
Black Vox grill cloth was used on the Pathfinder 15R from 2002 through 2008, but a change made was by the factory to brown Vox grill cloth in mid 2008. All Pathfinder 15R manufactured since mid 2008 had brown Vox grill.
An 8" special design Vox speaker was mounted inside the open backed cabinet.
An optional Vox VFS2 foot switch was used to control the boost and tremolo.
