  desert friend's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Good amp."

  Characteristics

  Find the manual on the net to include all possibilities.

  Utilization

  Idem. (The knobs a bit to a boring).

  Sounds

  Contrary to previous opinion I think this amp sounds great for its prix.Ne not expect the sound of a "real" vintage vox amps but they cost three times its prix.Si vox sound you are looking for cheap go y.L amp has a lot of possibilities of different sounds and still précis.Perso I think it's kind with guitars fender it sounds better, or half credit for the beautiful clean, clear and nervous English pop or nice crunch but never aggressive and dynamic criards.En anyway this amp is not "soft" and is quite distinctive.
  
  The tremolo is good, the reverb as well but no more difficult to put a lot.

  Overall Opinion

  I wrote this opinion because I sell a real shame and I will find someone stops at the previous opinion extremely négatif.J 'had bought this amp out of curiosity and to try his vox and I ultimately skeptical but I think it's a good amp, especially with respect to its price and I have never had a problem avec.J 'have a beef with registered (sm57, good and good pedalboard fender) and its is very good, my friends very skeptical at first (that's stuff much better in comparison) were finally surpris.Bref although it is obviously not a "real" vox (3 times more expensive there's no mystery) but ca sonne.A both distinctive and versatile, with a very good tonic profondeur.Le head format can try different cab.
  
  8 / 10 to report his / price.

  alexmar's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  See below ...

  Utilization

  See below ...

  Sounds

  This is where it gets tough ...
  
  The sound is invariably loud and aggressive, I try in vain all the guitars I had on hand, nothing to be learned.
  
  In the limit for playing a clean sound baloche it goes but do not expect to rock with "that."

  Overall Opinion

  I had this head for a year or so.
  
  I was attracted by the price (I have been made to new € 800) and repelled by the sound and the fragility of the whole. Tolex is already very fragile, a single layer of black plastic crumbling with fear. Chinese lamps that burn out one after the other, that the pots start to spit, the input / output jack creaking, etc, etc, the list could be much longer ....
  
  
  
  I had dozens of amps, perhaps the only one that I do not miss at all.
  
  
  
  Quality / price ratio: for thee have your money, no more (a condition of not paying too much ...)
  
  
  
  I sold as soon as I could, of course I would not recommend this choice. In fact I just mailed the notice to try to warn those who are tempted by the adventure: WARNING THIS IS NOT REALLY A 30 AC IS NOT CHINESE AND ENGLISH AS so it should be!
  
  
  
  With the experience I would be saved to buy a "real" vintage AC30 or bought a clone "boutique" but surely not the damn Chinese.
  
  
  
  I note that this notice is posted in hindsight and not at all within the scope of anger, I no longer owns this amp for over a year so the anger is gone, I'm just trying to get away from unanimous consensus on the farce that is the series "custom classic" ...

  pyl86's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  30W all-tube head (they forget it's a zero in vox lol) the reverb sounds great and is easy to adjust, I had a little trouble with the tremolo (with my old combo of HW AC30 1972 a canal was dedicated for this purpose and there was a rough adjustment)

  Utilization

  There is nothing wrong except that there is no footswich to change channels must buy one separately or make it. contrary to other opinions I have a manual in French which allows me to understand and recreate all the sounds of different AC30 with the sliders on the back of the head (they are made to it) (if someone want it leaves me a message on this site) it is quite difficult to adjust at first but then qq time we start the next couple of configs and it comes out more

  Sounds

  It is best suited to blues and rock but by feeling a little can make him out a little every style (the clean channel for jazz is stunning) used with my 6120 G gretsh it sounds big, strong and clean and with a vox wah 847 and the top boost channel is playing hendrix!

  Overall Opinion

  I use it for a year and I can not change it for the world after having tried the marshall and the mesa boogie Hughes and Kettner for that price of happiness is there that my neighbors that the like it!

  roulian ross's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  See above

  Utilization

  Setup is super simple, but some adjustments are very effective,
  
  
  
  in addition, with the possibility of shuffled the two channels, it opens new possibilities
  
  
  
  no manual or on the Internet

  Sounds

  Perfect for pop, blues or rock,
  
  
  
  It comes easily to the sounds of groups: Radiohead, Noir Desir, or queens of stone age
  
  
  
  I play a Fender telecaster, an grestch or an ibanez saber, I plug in a 2 * 12 mesa roadster, and it sounds serious, one or two effects for the gain or reverb and it's part, it sounds round , super hot, but so dirty prcis
  
  
  
  the more you attack the grain more apparent, for there must be good against scratching, as it meant the slightest sound

  Overall Opinion

  I've had six months, I love the sound as it is with "the" grain
  
  
  
  I had HK attax100 and tube 100, marshall, crate lamps, each has its own style but no one sounds like the Vox
  
  
  
  It's cheap for this quality but it is certain limit style
  
  
  
  If it loose, I take back a
  
  
  
  ps: me either, I do not work for vox,

  lbailly's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  All-tube amp head (EL84 and ECC83), for a power of 33 Watts (22 Watts bridable), but empty, nothing to do with the Watts transistors, Vox has to be the reputable " loud ", and I confirm! Brid 22 Watts, volume gnral 1 / 4, trs j'tait comfortable rptition between my drummer and my bass player
  
  
  
  CT Connect, Vox came back in the 21-Century by adding ... a volume knob gnral ;-) Come on, I carries a little, there is now also an effects loop, reverb and a spring (the most beautiful effect for that matter) in addition to the tremolo, switchable by pdalier provided.
  
  
  
  But what matters most is the clean channel prsence a wonderful, and the famous canal "top boost" that wonderful crunch, but I'll APRS ...
  
  
  
  All dtails the connection here: http://www.voxamps.co.uk/downloads/AC30CC_EFGS2.pdf
  
  
  
  Note that I use on a firm Vox V412BN (4 HP 12 "GSH12-30) (not on AudioFanzine REFERENCE?)
  
  
  
  Come on, I put 9 because "this price, it will integrate the pdalier could have provided a channel switch, which would have to buy a saw in AB Box complment

  Utilization

  Easy configuration, plug, and play (plug & play!)
  
  
  
  We must spend some time manipulation to test the pots and get a good sound, especially if you want to "mix" the two channels
  
  
  
  Basically, I found all my sounds qq minutes at THE FIRST RPET (having just prpar first home of the same)
  
  
  
  No manual (except Internet)

  Sounds

  We obtain easily a wonderful clear sound, and if slamming CHARACTERISTICS Vox, and above all, a wonderful crunch, sensitive to the attack string, which can be pushed into a corner to give a saturation blues-trs rock
  
  
  
  I use an effects loop and a chorus CS9 Akai Headrush delay, the sound is clean trs, not dnatur.
  
  
  
  Nammoins in complment, one of distortion pedals seems to me essential to complter palette, I opt for the Vox Bulldog Distortion to achieve sound more rock, hard rock, limits mtal
  
  
  
  I added my Tubescreamer TS9, still does!
  
  
  
  Anyway, I have my strat US Discoveries in a different light, with amazing harmonics, and the possibilities of the amp with amazing feedback! Bright lights!

  Overall Opinion

  I have been using ... 1 week. You may say, it's short, but I am so excited about my exprience in RPET yesterday ... I've been playing for 12 years on a Peavey Classic 50 Blues, also lamps, sound trs hot, but the one is in another dimension. I have tried also two other bodies: Marshall JCM 800 and 900, TSL100, but pchent by the clear sound, and also combos Fender Vibrolux, Twin, Mesa Boogie, etc. ...), and icing on the cake, Vox benefitted from an excellent quality price in this range, Chinese manufacturing is surely to sth ...
  
  
  
  I love the rustling of the lighting lamps, small red filaments that you see in the wonderful transparency derrire tweed, look "vintage" of this amp, Rahhaaa, lovely ...
  
  
  
  Small precision: these critters, you have to play a certain volume to get the sound. even if now, thanks to knob gnral volume, you can play at home, you n'esprez not exploded ... complter by a pod or other home for work, but hey, everything will start encrypting! It should also go in, attack the strings, or touch, it depends, in short, vibrating in tune with this couple is wonderful guitar and Mr AC30CCH
  
  
  
  I do it again this choice without hsiter and highly recommend all the "BluesBrakers" plant!
  
  
  
  Disclaimer: rcent away by my enthusiasm, my words can fMeasure stepfather. I promise to correct this post in qq month if I think change! And no, I do not work for Vox ;-)
