Vintage Vox AC30 Original 1964 JMI 2×12 Combo Guitar Tube Amp
The vintage 1964 Vox AC30 is universally considered one of the most legendary in holy grail amplifiers from the past 50 years – a true British icon! The AC-30 helped define the sound of the British invasion, and remains one of Vox’s most important models – for iconic tone reference.. You can listen to the likes of Brian May, Tom Petty, Jimmy Page & Rory Gallagher (to name a few). This particular amp sounds nothing short of spectacular, it chimes and barks with the incredibly dynamic, touch sensitive responsiveness, smooth tube saturation and glassy clarity that has made this amp one of the most sought after of all time. An additional volume knob has been added internally (to the left of the 1st speaker), which acts as a really cool attenuation feature for when you want those massive tones.. This unit is in very good condition for it’s 50+ years of life, with various minor wear & tear to the exterior including a few scuffs that have been very neatly patched up professionally. The combo appears mostly all original (including transformers), except from 2 upgraded Celestion G12s-50 speakers & a changed logo / tone knob along with potentially changed minor service components. There’s no footswitch included in the sale & I believe the trem/vib effect is not quite functioning right (to my ears) – it’s either on (fast) or off & the speed knob doesn’t currently change the speed.. Though the footswitch might simply be required for this feature to function correctly. Please have a close look at the high resolution images provided as these form part of the items condition & originality description. Universal voltage selector, currently has the UK plug end fitted.
