VOX AC30CC2X 2x12 Combo

History in the making
Why has the AC30 been an icon for decades? It's the amplifier's unique, warm tone, its player friendly "feel" and its primeval circuit design. With its straightforward "what you see is what you get" control format, the AC30 was a hit with artists from the very beginning. Back then, VOX owned the '60s "British invasion" and to this day the AC30 is widely used by all kinds of guitarists performing in a huge range of musical styles.


With a number of modern enhancements including blendable channels, a true bypass FX loop, spring reverb and master volume, to name just a few, the new AC30 Custom Classic is an evolution of the original that is sure to become a classic in its own right.

Attaining the highest standards
In order to achieve tonal nirvana, this AC30 is manufactured in a vertically integrated manufacturing facility. They have total control of the design, the quality and the sound of your amplifier. The factory is capable of many processes not found in most guitar amplifier factories. Vox designs and manufactures their own transformers, speakers (except for the venerable VOX "Blue" & "Neodog" which are manufactured by Celestion), cabinets and they build their own electronics. All components have been designed, manufactured or selected so that the performance and sound of your AC30 Custom Classic is second to none.

An evolution in tone
When Vx set out to create the AC30 Custom Classic, they started from their most highly acclaimed model to date, the AC30 Hand Wired. With twin inputs (high and Low) and a Master Volume circuit, these amps offer highly interactive Bass and Treble tone controls, as well as the VOX Tone Cut control (which varies the presence in the power amp section) for even greater tonal variety. We also included Classic Tremolo with variable Depth control and a tube-driven Accutronics reverb with Level and Tone controls as well as a Dwell switch.

Two blendable channels, a first
Not only does the AC30 Custom Classic include two channels, it also offers the ability to blend those channels together (a first for the AC30!). The Top Boost Channel serves up that classic AC30 tone, while our new expanded Normal Channel now offers two modes, Normal and Bright, which allow you to achieve the sounds of an assortment of vintage AC30s. Use the channels individually or blend them together for increased tonal flexibility to create a unique sound and feel that's all your own.

Control freaks rejoice!
The AC30 Custom Classic is fully equipped with well thought out and easy to use controls. With a Custom/Normal EQ switch, Tone control and Dwell switch for the spring reverb, Master Volume, fully variable Tremolo on all channels and a true bypass Effects Loop, Vox has thought of everything! They've even included a switchable cathode resistor that lowers power output and increases tube life. Of course, the AC30 Custom Classic comes with standard controls like Treble, Bass, Tone, Volume, Standby and more.

"The best and the Original 'British Rock' sound"

Having performed and recorded for a lot of years, I've probably played through a good percentage of what's out there for production amps, from Silvertone to Magnatone, Ampeg to Kustom, Marshall to Mesa Boogie, Fender to Bad Cat, Peavey to Traynor, and in my experience there is no amp that better exemplifies the British sound than Vox. Little wonder, given its legacy.Rated at a nominal 30 watts, this amp is as loud as 100 watt amps I've heard. Not quite as loud as a Fender Twin, but close. And be forewarned, this amp is heavy (over 70 lbs). So if you're looking for an amp to carry up flights of stairs to that small club where you're booked, I'd opt for the new AC-15 instead. This box is just too much weight (and volume).That said, the controls are simple and intuitive, and the tremolo is as good or better than anything made on this side of the pond.If you want clear, sweet, broad, melodic power... This is the only amp you'll likely ever need.
