Description
The Vox AC30 combo amp has been an icon for decades, known as the sound that powered the 1960s' "British Invasion." Based on the classic AC30 design, the all-new Custom Series AC30C2X offers numerous up-to-date enhancements, delivering the most versatile AC30 design in Vox history.
The AC30C2X offers two channels: Normal and Top-Boost. Each channel is equipped with its own Volume control, and the Top Boost channel offers highly interactive Treble and Bass tone controls. This powerful channel pairing provides incredible of tone-crafting versatility--letting you dial in a classic sound that is all your own. Both channels rely on the Tone Cut and Volume controls in the Master section. The Tone Cut control operates in the power stage rather than the preamp stage--allowing an additional degree of high-frequency control. The Master Volume control works in conjunction with the individual volumes of each channel to create just the right degree of gain-staging. By balancing the individual and Master volumes, the Custom Series can deliver everything from a clean Vox "chimey" sound to a powerful overdriven tone.
Other features include the Vox Classic Tremolo effect as well as true Spring Reverb with independent tone control. The AC30C2X also provides an effects loop for incorporating your favourite effects into your sound.
The AC30C2X makes use of 3 12AX7 preamp tubes and use 4 EL84 tubes to deliver 30 watts of power to two 12" Celestion Alnico Blue speakers. All models in the Custom Series offer a switchable 8/16 ohm output jack for powering an external speaker cabinet when you need to speak with a little more authority; using this jack will mute the internal speakers. Additionally, a 2nd extension speaker jack allows you to run an extra 16 ohm cabinet along with the internal speakers for a fuller sound.
