UTILIZATION

Use this amp is a breeze you plug the guitar into it (after letting the heat lamp a quarter of an hour), we put the volume back and go for a deluge of watts (it has not ashamed to face any body has two lamps)
We do not find little easier to use.

SOUNDS

You should know that the vox ac 30 amp is not a fate to large loadings (Of course we do not along with a distortion pedal but I think it's a shame because the field is not his) .
The strength of this amp results in the huge and beautiful crunch that comes from the pair of greenback.
I use it to a directory plutt rock 70's (Queen, Led Zeppelin, Rory Gallagher ...) with two guitars: Fender Telecaster and a Les Paul Standard.

Now coming to is: the sound:

1 vib trem channel: its beautiful and clear it with in the vib + ring or a trs trem beatles, shadow ...
trs crunch is in the 60's rock'n roll

2 the normal channel (I prefer: a background with the volume and the cut BRIAN MAY has trs poorly in big crunch seen, for his was a clear you to manage the volume of the guitar and does it well (you can even do the funk)

Channel 3 brilliant: its a clear and sharp rises above are beautiful and very clean and low cut that figure in medium with all this we can sculpt the sound clear his dreams (like the edge with chorus and delay).

in his hearing aid to the crunch mm has made me lol not to be serious one approaches the jtm 45 Angus Young and the sound of Radiohead, U2 ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years c'tait the amp of my dreams and still is (I'm a fan of Brian May then you will understand me).
What I love about this amp is that it performs well with all the pedals and guitars that I possde, even if my config prferes are tlcaster, les paul, vox Brian May treble booster mode, boss ce1 chorus, mxr phase 90, akai headrush1 delay and whammy digitech for reissue by deu harmonizer.Et all ........ I pr eng is to put the volume back to its wonderful to have (with the Vox Brian May and more I swear that the gross of a fighter jet flying drone that figure)

The only problem is the lack of master volume for your family and neighbors so I'm going to put 9.

I bought this amp without even testing it he never of, I do not believe me and I will not at least I Espree.

This amp is sold in nine gnral 1800 euros but in life we ​​must know what you want, I want a vox ac 30 so I break my pig and I'm not: while yes it's expensive but it's the ball.

Strongly red special, another pair of AC30 and a thd hot plate for the home (can be when I win the lottery.
