![]() ![]() Summarized it's a great amp and of course a really good option if the AC-30 is too big for you. So dig into the two options just to be sure you're choosing the right one. I'm not saying the Greenback is bad (which it isn't) but it's not the tones i'm searching for. i underrated the Alnico blue speaker and planning on ordering it to get it replaced with the Greenback speaker. Tremolo and Reverb is the only effects you can mod around with so i'd recommend having a few pedals just to spread the capabilities.Īnd the speaker. Then as i said it's features are limited. ![]() But i'm not fully satisfied with that solution. I'm living in a house with neighbours in almost every direction and it's not very often when i can even crank it up to 50% without worrying about getting complains, i've solved this sort of by having compressor with relative low volume on. If you can tick these 3 then might not be the one to buy a Vox AC-15. ![]() Do you want a Vox AC-15 but with the Alnico blue speaker instead of the Greenback stock version? Do you have a really expensive guitar and almost no pedals?ģ. Do you play at home, ex in an aparmtment/townhouse?Ģ. If you can tick these 3 then you might be the one to buy a Vox AC-15.ġ. Do you have a few different guitar pedals? (Probably yes.) Do you have access to a place where you can really crank an amp to it's max?ģ. Do you want to imitate specific bands, for example U2, Queen etc?Ģ. It's quite simple when comparing to the tones you can get.ġ. Normal - Might need something between the guitar and amp to crunch it up a little.Ī really good additional pedal to the Top Boost option is a simple Compressor pedal, my main order is basically: Guitar - Dyna comp - Delay - Vox Ac15. Top Boost - No additional pedal is needed to create a crunchy/overdrive sound. I'll summarize it quickly from my point of view. As in my case i'm a huge U2 fan and that's is actually the main reason why i bought it.īasically you have two options, either the Top Boost or the Normal channel. The features may be limited but that's almost what to expect, if you're looking to buy an amp from the AC-series you know what you're searching for. I've it stationed in my bedroom beside my little "studio" corner and of course, it's a good looking amp and also a sort of decoration. This Amp-series might be one of the more famous ones in the world, and the "status" that it has is understandable. The spring reverb and tremolo effects are both continuously adjustable and can also be activated via an external foot switch. Finally, the Tone Cut control of the power amp can be used to dampen the treble of both channels a little. In addition, the channel offers an EQ section made up of treble and bass. The Top Boost channel, on the other hand, produces a very dynamic vintage distortion via its volume control, which can also be adjusted with the volume potentiometer on the guitar. Only when it's fully cranked up does it deliver a bit of crunch. The Normal channel is rather simple and features only a volume control, which determines both the volume and the distortion level - you can't get more plug-and-play than that! In terms of sound, the Normal channel offers plenty of clean headroom. When connecting the guitar, however, you have to choose one of the two channels and its input jack. From a technical point of view, the AC15 C1 has two channels: The Normal channel and the Top Boost channel.
