iamqmanTon fantastique!
Publié le 18/05/11 à 17:07
(contenu en anglais)What a fantastic tone! I love the sound of this amp. There is nothing that sounds like a Vox other than a Vox. Being the Ac30 their flagship amplifier this is amp that is hand wired is going to be one great tone machine. If you are after tone then there isn't many amps that can top the sweet warmth that this amp produces.

SOUNDS
The ability for this amp to take pedal is exceptional. There isn't really any better amp that can take pedals better than this amp. Throw a delay pedal and a TS9 in front of this amp and you'll get some great tone that is hard to beat.
I like this amp with every guitar you can throw at it. My personal favorite would have to be a nice Gibson Les Paul. It gets a round warm tone that fills the air. Say you want to get a nice U2 sound then slap a Fender Stratocaster in front of it and use the master gain controls and you'll get a great Edge tone.
OVERALL OPINION
The only thing that I don't like about this amp is the Greenback speakers. Don't get me wrong the Greenbacks are my favorite speaker but I mostly use Marshall's so it works for me. I think this amp sounds best with the blue alnico speakers. They get you a great solid chimy tone that mixes best with the amp.
I would recommend this amp to anyone who needs a vintage Vox Ac30 tone. OR any sound engineer who needs to add to his catalog. At new these amps come in at around $1500.20
