VOX AC30C2-TV-BC

General

The AC30 could be seen as one of the four primordial guitar amplifiers. Its sound formed the basis of the British Invasion, which included bands such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and the Kinks. Of course, the AC30 isn't just a blast from the past; it offers bright cleans and creamy, crunchy overdrives that are still cherished by guitarists the world over. The combination of two 12-inch Celestion G12M Greenback speakers and an amp section with three 12AX7 preamp tubes with four EL84 power amps is practically unbeatable.

TV look

The design of the AC30C2-TV-BC pays homage to the VOX amps that commanded stages around the world in the sixties. It features an elegant two-tone blue and grey covering, divided by a sleek golden stripe in the retro TV style. Every detail of the original amplifiers has been carefully studied and replicated, resulting in a modern amp that really looks and sounds like a vintage amp. Just like the AC30, this amp is also equipped with a Top Boost channel, as well as reverb and tremolo effects.

Reverb and tremolo

It's not just the tube sound of the AC30 that's legendary, but the built-in tremolo effect also made quite a stir back in the day. The speed and intensity of the tremolo effect can be adjusted via the Speed and Depth knobs, and if you connect the optional VOX VFS2A foot switch you can turn both the tremolo and spring reverb effects on and off from a distance. If you'd like, you can get even more volume by connecting an external speaker cabinet, and you also have the option of bypassing the internal speakers. These options offer plenty of room for experimentation, so if you're looking for a versatile, legendary sound in a retro package, then you're in the right place with this amp!
