Simple and reliable.
I bought this for my Vox AC30 C2 to act as a switch for the built-in reverb and tremolo effects. Needless to say, it functions exactly as expected. Foot-switch 1 controls the reverb (On/Off) and foot-switch 2 controls the tremolo (On/Off). Both are latching foot-switches, and the each has a red LED that illuminates when the switch is engaged or latched.
They are not labelled, so you'll just have to remember which is which, but I'm sure you're sophisticated enough to manage that. Worst case scenario, you can add your own labels until it becomes muscle memory.
The product is a fair size, meaning if you want it on your pedal board, it will eat up some room. Attachment wise, I use a bicycle chain links, which were easy to slip onto the screws holding the body together. The underside is smooth and will take Velcro too, if you wish.
The colour is all black, and the printed Vox logo is of a high quality, and has not faded or scuffed in the time I have owned it.
It's powered from the amp (for the LEDs), so you don't have to worry about that. It's very well built and sturdy, and will obviously be able to take a stomping. I've owned this product for about six months, and it's never let me down.
The lead itself is standard. As the foot-switch will not be in your signal chain, there is no need to mention how it effects your guitar's tone. I did use it once as a stand in from guitar to amp, and noticed no drop in tone.
As always, Thomann's pricing is very competitive and fair. Shipping was instant and the item arrived very quickly.
Overall, I would certainly recommend this product if you are looking for a foot-switch to control your amp's inbuilt reverb and tremolo effects. I have no idea whether this works with other Vox models, or if it works with other brands of amp; however, I certainly doubt it would.

Vox VFS2A Footswitch
Built like a tank, reliable and has LED's to see when they're on or not.
Considering this is meant only for Reverb and Tremolo, it would have helped if instead of 1 & 2 they would have put the names of the effects. Also although its built like a tank, i'm sure it could have been a little smaller and more pedal board friendly.

Very useful addition to my AC30C2
The footswitch was the only way of turning reverb/tremolo on and off on my Vox AC30 C2 amp. I would say it is a limitation from Vox not to include the footswitch, however the price is quite good for the quality you receive and the footswitch does exactly the job it is designed for.
The footswitch looks and feels stable and heavy, it has a rubber padding on the bottom to keep it from slipping. Not quite sure how I can mount it on my pedalboard, so for the time being I keep it outside of the main rig. The cable is long enough, but it really depends how far from the amp you stay when on stage. I wouldn't mind another 2-3 meters of cable length, though.
Generally, I am very satisfied with the product and I would recommend it to anyone who needs to get a footswitch controlling reverb and tremolo on a Vox amp.

Does what it should, built like a tank.
Like I said, it’s pretty straightforward: Does what it should, built like a tank.

This simply needs to buy!
An essential and economical footswitch from Vox. The Vox VFS2A guitar footswitch is made especially for Vox amps. With a high-quality, durable, all-metal construction, this footswitch will stand up to the rigors of the road, and will stay with you for years to come. A 1/4" jack on the VFS2A connects the footswitch to Vox Pathfinder and Cambridge amps. The Vox footswitch also works with the AC custom line of amps and all VR series amps. Includes LEDs to show when either the tremolo or reverb effects are engaged.

Free your hands for actual playing!
I bought it for Vox NT15C1 combo and that's what I needed! Indicators shows what channel I am and all works fine. If you are gigging musician - must have it! It sofa amateur - must have it to get most from your amp.

Usefull and simple to use.
I bought it for my Boss Katana mk 2 and in the start it had problems, In order for me to use it with the boss katana I had to open the footswitch and disable the lights. After that, it worked perfectly

Great pedal!
Bought this for my AC30 VR. It works as intended.
It came with a proper cable, no problems with it so far. The pedal is built really well! I'm really enjoying using this. Also has some material on the bottom of it probably to stop it from slipping all over the place, which is great!
I recommend this pedal to anybody!

Does what it's supposed to.
It does what it is designed to do for my Vox head. Enough said, I guess.
