Vox Amplification has updated its classic AC30 and AC15 guitar amplifiers to create the new Custom Series - Models in the new series include the AC30C2X, AC30C2 and AC15C1.

The VOX AC30 combo amp has long been an icon, known as the sound that powered the 1960's “British Invasion.” First introduced in 1958, the smaller AC15 combo has been the amp of choice for countless guitar players, the company says.

The Custom Series amps rely on 3 × 12AX7 dual triode vacuum tubes in the pre-amp stage, and 4 x EL84 pentode tubes in the power stage of the 30-Watt AC30C2 and AC30C2X. The 15-Watt AC15C1 uses 2 x EL84 tubes.

Standard models are equipped with Celestion Greenback speakers; the AC30C2X is equipped with Celestion Alnico Blues. The optional footswitch provides a hands-free method for turning the Reverb and Tremolo effects on and off while performing.
