Published on 03/22/12 at 12:44Amplification tube grinding except that is not present on this model and it's not worse.
The amp has two possible channels not foot switchable (unless you invest in an A / B box) 1 entry per channel:
1 Normal: This setting on the treble / bass does not.
1 Top Boost which opens the door to settings Treble / Bass.
A general master for two channels.
An effect loop send / return.
A section Tremelo effect with speed / depth.
Reverb section with a depth / presence.
Power: 33 Watts or 22 Watts (switchable behind the amp).
Modern and vintage two modes (switch behind the amp).
An entrance for the pedal that manages the effects trem. / Reverb (on / off).
2 outputs for cab: one that cuts the internal speaker and the other which allows for both. Caution 8 Ohms.
Oh I forgot: the loudspeaker is a "special celestion NEODOG Vox" (see on the net) that far exceeds those installed in the CC2. However it does not equal a Blue Alnico.
UTILIZATION
The configuration is fairly straightforward.
For one who has ever used a Vox not need manual.
For others there is a box with different models of the style settings. Then there internet
This gives a fairly typical range of his ... Up to and really not bad!
SOUNDS
This amp is perfect for my style of music (Rock, Blues, Jazz).
This is a very typical amp sounding "British".
This gives a clear sound easily, not comparable to the Fender slamming is more fleshy and fat.
Then I recommend to upgrade its sound with the volume knob on the guitar or with a volume pedal to 'amp cruncher'. All this on the canl T / B.
I play it with a telecaster, a baritone and a Framus Manta soon.
There is no sound that I hate it.
But the mode 22 W etric sound with a feeling of compression set incorrectly, the Normal channel does not motivate me more than that.
33W on the other hand in the top boost, it gets really interesting. We can start talking about his AC30 without blushing.
I made a comparison with a 78-TBX.
For the Normal channel, no hesitation, that of CC1 can not hold a candle of TBX. Lack of heat, grooowool, and response to the attack of the pick, dynamic too dark, the headroom is disappointing. In short it is out of Vox.
By the channel against TB really surprised me! Without achieving excellence Vintaaaage a 60 'or a 30th Anniversary, it stands up very well and can do great illusion in a band on stage.
So very honorable record.
OVERALL OPINION
I use this model CC1 for 18 months.
I tried this one before moult z'amplis (cream of the crop).
The features I like are: robustness / reliability, weight (only 1 HP), Sound mode top boost, effects loop, the possibility of bridging the channels through a swtch, SOUND Vox focused trading of more modest.
Cons: Lack two handles on the sides, using the Normal channel, very / too powerful because they are VERY sonnet which FOOOOOORT 33W, 22W mode which tends to étriquer sound (the sudden both opt for AC15), except for the price I do not know what to complain too.
With experience, this choice if I will ever be penniless.
Otherwise I will go directly to an AC15 or AC30 or model HH 60/70 ', but it is no longer the same price.
