All tube amp 30W RMS
Model with two Celestion Alnico Blue 12 "
The rest of a typical AC30, normal channel and top boost came with 2 each (low and high) volume of each channel, 2-band EQ on the top boost, spring reverb, tremolo, master volume, classic.

By against the weight of the beast: 33.4 kg ouch back!

UTILIZATION

Amplifier easier than it not possible (except small 5W), it is far from gasworks present, it is the former.
The manual ... useless ears are there for
Sound good ... if you like the sound Vox and if you can push the beast ... much!

SOUNDS

So then, what to say, it is simply magical. It's dynamic, it's brilliant is british!
The normal channel is polished with heat and softness as a request in Vox.
The top boost is simply magical, more bright and more aggressive, hot and greasy for the little one pushes the preamp.
Personally I do not play nearly as the top boost, volume thoroughly to enjoy the natural saturation lamps.
I push the master about a quarter to enjoy a minimum potential of the amp, plus my ears explode because are really 30W 30 Watts GOOD!
I play with a Gibson SG Standard that allows me to get good saturation and 70's touch to the sound of Led Zeppelin and Cream for a good touch of psychedelia.
I also use a Fender Stratocaster Standard Mexico with Noiseless SCN pickups and gentlemen Gilmour and Hendrix are opening their doors.
I mainly use an Ibanez TS-808 to boost the saturation of the amp, and it's hot, it's sooo bluesy!

OVERALL OPINION

I use this amp for 1 year now, he gave me that happiness.
I had a Fender Frontman 212R before, the day and night! =)
I tried a Hot Rod Deluxe and the model of the Celestion Greenback AC30.
I found the Fender clean too, I like the light that twist and good crunch, channels of saturated fender, bof is messy.
The AC30 is another good too, but you can feel the difference Alnico Blue that bring even more heat on the sound!

I paid € 1250 on Thomann, yes it is expensive but when you love (and that means to be realistic too) it does not matter, and I do it again this choice without hesitation!
