General
One of the newest additions to the AC Custom Series by VOX is the AC30CH. It's essentially the classic AC30 in an amp head version. To experience that ultimate British guitar sound, this head can be used in combination with the VC212 2x 12-inch speaker cabinet. Add even more ambience to the legendary, clean sound of the VOX AC30CH with the tremolo and reverb effects which can be activated via a foot switch.
AC30CH: sparkling British with attenuator
A unique function of the amp heads from the AC Custom range is their reactive attenuator function which allows you to reduce the power of this head from 30 watts down to 3 watts, or even one third of a watt! This means you can still enjoy the full, characteristic British sound of the VOX AC30CH even at much lower volume levels. This AC30 tube amp has two separate channels. The Top Boost channel features an independent 2-way EQ section and delivers the legendary AC30 sound. The Normal channel has a single volume knob and offers a cleaner, more natural tube sound. Each channel features a high and low input for guitars with low or high output.

I am very impressed and as stated the Delivery was made within 3 days of ordering it,
Thanks Bax shop team,
Ik heb deze versterker gekocht vanwege de ingebouwde attenuator (let op: deze werkt alleen met een 16 ohm speaker, de versterker moet dus ook op 16 ohm staan!) om mijn gehoor te sparen. Ik speel met een treblebooster en een Red Special replica, en het volume op 10. Met de attenuator op 1/3e watt is het goed te doen qua volume, geen ruis, piepjes of brom, maar wél de toon die ik zocht!
Fantastische versterker
