Vox AC30 6TB Combo Amplifier – 1997

From Vox: 

‘For those who crave more power, the AC30 expands on the captivating sound of its little brother by doubling the wattage. Employing a quartet of EL84 power tubes, the AC30 Custom pumps 30 watts of remarkable tone. Capable of both enchanting clean and raucous overdriven sounds, the signature chime of the AC30 Custom pairs seamlessly the intricacies of your playing style, resulting in a sound that is truly your own. Perhaps the most iconic amplifier in VOX’s pedigree, the AC30 earned its place in history as the amplifier that powered the British Invasion. Since then, the AC30 has remained the choice of the world’s most accomplished artists who have come to rely on its unique voice to amplify theirs.’

This is a very versatile combo amp, with tons of character true to the Vox legacy. It covers a lot of ground, with a punchy, chimy sound that can be tailored to your needs from clean to crunch, from churn to burn. Definitely worth a look-in.

The speakers in this AC30 6TB have been replaced with 2 x 12" Vox Wharfedale speakers.

This AC30 is in fair condition, with some decent time spent on the road, there are some small tears in the tolex, the main one along the face. It has some bumps and bruises but still sounds mighty!  

This amp comes in a pro quality roadcase on wheels, which is included in the sale. Pics of roadcase to come.
