VOX AC15CH 15W guitar amp head
Product no: 9000-0023-4049 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty, the tubes come with a 3-month warranty.

General

The VOX AC15CH is part of the AC Custom series. This tube amp head is based on the legendary AC15, and offers an authentic, classic British guitar sound in combination with the VC212C 2x 12" speaker cabinet, for example. Using the VFS2A foot switch, you can utilise the integrated reverb and tremolo effects to give that familiar sparkling sound of this VOX AC15 Custom Head a little extra oomph.

AC15CH: vintage with selectable wattage

The 15 watts this VOX delivers can be reduced to 1.5 watts - that's one sixth of the capacity! That also means you can use the AC15CH head in the rehearsal room as well as in your living room without sacrificing any of that unmistakably powerful British sound. This AC15 amp head has two separate channels. The Top Boost channel features an independent 2-way EQ section and delivers the legendary AC15 sound. The Normal channel has a single volume knob and offers a cleaner, more natural tube sound.
