Vox: A name that stands for the sound of rock music

Since the early days of rock music, Vox has made a name for itself as one of the leading manufacturers of amplifiers. The Vox AC30 played a central role in the development of the classic "British Invasion" sound and is still an indispensable part of the set-up of many top guitarists worldwide. Artists such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, U2 and Brian May of Queen are just some of the legends who have used this amplifier to shape their unique sound. With the AC30 Classic Vintage Red Ltd. edition, Vox brings back the proven technology and iconic design, but refines it with a modern, limited edition color scheme.

Technical details of the Vox AC30 Classic Vintage Red Ltd. edition

Like all models in the AC30 series, the Vox AC30 Classic Vintage Red Ltd. edition delivers an unmistakable British tube sound. With an output power of 30 watts RMS at 16 ohms, the amplifier offers enough power to produce a rich, penetrating sound both on stage and in the studio. The two built-in 12″ Celestion G12M Greenback speakers ensure excellent sound reproduction with clear highs, powerful mids and warm basses. These speakers are particularly popular with guitarists as they deliver a classic vintage sound that is suitable for rock, blues and modern music styles.

The amplifier offers a variety of connection options, making it extremely versatile. The four inputs include a normal high and low input as well as a top boost high and low input. These inputs allow the guitarist to use different sound characteristics and adapt the amplifier to their individual playing style. There is also an effects loop with send and return sockets, which allows external effects devices to be integrated into the signal chain without affecting the characteristic sound of the amplifier.

The controls of the Vox AC30 Classic Vintage Red Ltd. edition provide comprehensive control over the sound. The normal channel volume, top boost channel volume and controls for bass and treble in the top boost channel allow you to fine-tune the sound. The reverb tone and reverb level controls allow the integrated reverb to be optimally adjusted, while the tremolo speed and depth adjust the characteristic Vox tremolo feature. Another highlight is the Tone Cut control, which can attenuate the high end of the amplifier to make the sound even warmer. The master volume rounds off the setting options and makes it possible to get the full tube sound even at low volume.

Classic tube sound thanks to high-quality components

The Vox AC30 is known for its warm, rich tube sound, which is achieved by using high-quality tube components. Four EL84 tubes are used in the output stage, which are responsible for the classic British sound character. The preamp is equipped with three ECC83/12AX7 tubes, which enable clear and powerful sound reproduction. These tube components are ideal for guitarists who appreciate the dynamic and natural sound of a tube amplifier.

A design that combines style and functionality

The housing of the Vox AC30 Classic Vintage Red Ltd. edition is not only a visual highlight, but also functionally well thought out. The stable dimensions of 702 mm (width), 265 mm (depth) and 556 mm (height) make it a robust companion on stage. Despite its powerful sound, the amplifier remains portable and flexible in use. The red vintage Tolex, the legendary diamond fret in black and gold and the rectangular VOX logo give it a classic elegance that will delight any guitarist.

The Vox AC30 comes with useful accessories, including a power cord and a VFS2A footswitch. The footswitch makes it easy to control the reverb and tremolo, allowing the guitarist to switch flexibly between the effects during the performance. The effects loop also allows external effects to be used to further expand the sound.
