That Vox shimmer is all there and it's wonderful. I love the high end and I love this amp's distortion. It has a character to it that makes you play a certain way. It sounds like a Vox but doesn't force you to sound like anything. It has a character of its own without taking over your own sound. I use this amp as one of two that I use for practice and recording. Being able to switch the transformer output to 8ohms from 16 is great because you can hook this up to a load box or an 8ohm external cabinet without having to buy any extra gear. I already had an 8ohm load box and did not want to have to buy a 16ohm variant. The amp sounds the same regardless of whether you've set it to 8ohms or 16 when using the external speaker input. Playing live in the room sounds amazing as well. It has a great sound that gets plenty loud but you're still able to play at bedroom levels thanks to the master volume knob. Both the top boost and normal channels are nice, it just depends on the sound you're going for. Personally, I tend to only use the top boost channel but there are times when the normal channel is needed for maybe more mellow, jazzy tones. I'd say this is a pretty versatile amp but it's not a pedal platform. It takes pedals well but it's not a blank slate. I wouldn't recommend this as a first tube amp for someone who really wants to color their tone with pedals. I'd say this would be the second amp for that person. For the person who is into getting most of their tone from the amp and not pedals, this would make a perfect first tube amp (or second, third, or final one at that). The reverb is decent. Not amazing but not bad either. I like it but some people get snobby about it. The original AC15 didn't have reverb or tremolo so I think that somehow has been translated into "the reverb and tremolo aren't good because they're not historically accurate". Use your ears, don't convince yourself that something doesn't sound good because you put the thing on some weird pedestal. The tremolo is actually very nice. I like the tremolo a lot and wish I had more use for it. I don't use it often and I've never recorded it but when I do use it it's a lot of fun and sounds great. I have to make it a point to record the AC15's tremolo because it's nice. Overall it's definitely a different sound than the Fenders I'm used to and I like it a lot more than most Fender amps. That said, amps are an extension of your instrument. Each amp will turn your guitar into a unique instrument and just how people have different guitars for different sounds, so it is with this amp. It's my favorite but I could never choose just one. This is perfect for recording and for being an at-home or studio amp. You could even perform with it. It is loud enough. If your purpose is performing live more than using it at home or the studio then maybe an AC30 is better. Having played both I can say the difference between the two (besides the obvious specs and loudness) isn't that great. They both have basically the same tone and it really comes down to portability and loudness. Sound quality is perfectly equal between the two. And I just have to say there's something magical about Vox amps that keep me coming back to them. I'm not sure what it is but I'd recommend this one any day to anyone. Review: Leaving Team Fender, Joining Team Vox - After 3 years of using a Fender Super Champ X2, I needed an upgrade for recording purposes. I passed on a Blues Jr for the AC15. One week later and I can't quit playing it. It's great. So I had one issue, and I'll run through that real quick, maybe it will help someone who reads this. The amp developed an annoying high end rattle while playing. This started occurring a few days after I got it, or maybe I just then noticed. So, I decided it could be the tubes, and I had a few 12AX7's laying around. Before dealing with a return, I pulled the back off (some 20 screws!) and replaced the two 12AX7s closest to the speaker. The rattle went away. I guess this was my first encounter with a microphonic tube? The sad thing is: I liked the tone, sans the rattle, from the cheap Chinese ones they had in there slightly better. But that rattle had to go. Now, I guess I should be more ticked. I had to fork out an additional $20 and some time on a $600 purchase less than a week after it's arrival but... well I've heard of this with Fenders before too and it appears to be the norm in the < $1k tube amps (aka. Chinese tube amps). The reality is, you now own a tube amp and you're officially in the business of replacing tubes, so they don't care if they break you in early. Having said that, this amp is superb. If you're wanting to be another Kenny Wayne Sheppard or Joe Bonamanamasa, I would stick with the Blues Jr. If you're doing rock, alternative, art rock etc., I would go with this amp. The Beatles and Deep Purple are the most notable users but I associate the sound with bands like Radiohead, REM, The Cure etc. ## Features - Classic British tube amp with 10 watts of power for rich, authentic tones - Equipped with EL84 power tubes and 12AX7 preamp tubes for classic VOX sound - Custom 10" Celestion VX10 speaker for powerful, clear sound projection - Features both normal and Top Boost channels for versatile tone shaping - Compact and portable design for easy transport to gigs and studio sessions - Simple yet effective controls: Gain, Bass, Treble, Reverb, and Master Volume - Extension and External speaker outputs for added versatility and sound customization - By-passable effect loop for integrating external effects pedals seamlessly - Distinctive vintage red tolex, black & gold fret cloth, and vintage logo for classic look - Ideal for genres like rock, blues, and classic rock with its iconic VOX tone ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0038MTH8S | | Amplifier Type | Tube | | Best Sellers Rank | #64,002 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #200 in Combo Guitar Amplifiers #20,733 in Music Recording Equipment | | Brand | VOX | | Built-In Media | Instruction Manual | | Color | Vintage | | Compatible Devices | Guitar | | Connector Type | 3.5mm Jack, 6.35mm Jack | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 65 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Leather or Vinyl | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04959112074262 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 15.2"D x 28.1"W x 21.9"H | | Item Type Name | electric-guitar-amplifier-combos | | Item Weight | 56.1 pounds | | Manufacturer | Korg USA Inc. | | Material | Leather or Vinyl | | Mfr Part Number | AC15C1 | | Model Name | AC15C1 | | Model Number | AC15C1 | | Number of Bands | 1 | | Output Channel Quantity | 1 | | Output Wattage | 15 | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 15.2"D x 28.1"W x 21.9"H | | Speaker Size | 12 inches | | Warranty Description | 1 years parts and labor, except tubes and footswitches which are covered for 90 days. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** VOX - **Color:** Vintage - **Compatible Devices:** Guitar - **Material:** Leather or Vinyl - **Output Wattage:** 15 ## Images ![AC15C1 1x12" 15W Guitar Tube Combo Amp w/ 2 Channels, Tremolo, & Reverb - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hmBLn3UuL.jpg) ![AC15C1 1x12" 15W Guitar Tube Combo Amp w/ 2 Channels, Tremolo, & Reverb - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tPNo+cIsL.jpg) ![AC15C1 1x12" 15W Guitar Tube Combo Amp w/ 2 Channels, Tremolo, & Reverb - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51lP1lyH0CL.jpg) ![AC15C1 1x12" 15W Guitar Tube Combo Amp w/ 2 Channels, Tremolo, & Reverb - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51K2ZBxY+mL.jpg) ![AC15C1 1x12" 15W Guitar Tube Combo Amp w/ 2 Channels, Tremolo, & Reverb - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51418r6UrLL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: If I use an A/B switch, does it switch before the individual channel volumen pots (can I get 2 volumes using an A/B switch, like a clean boost)?** A: This amp is not a channel-switching amp and does not accept an A/B footswitch for channel switching; however, you can get an ABY switch, which you will put BEFORE the inputs. What it will do is take the output from your guitar and split it 2 ways. The pedal switch will select which one of the two ways the output will go. Connect one of them to the "normal" input of the amp and the other to the "top boost" channel. Both channels of the amp are always on, but what comes out of the speaker depends on which input you're using. So, your guitar goes to the ABY switch, then depending on which of the Y outputs you've selected, continues to whichever amp input it's connected to. This is effect will give you channel switching. But bear in mind that both amplifier channel inputs are always on. **Q: can you use both channels at the same time** A: Yes. I've used the two outputs on my Line 6 HD500 into the two inputs. You get a bassier sound than just the top boost channel. **Q: This listing says 2 amps for$700. Can that be right?** A: It cannot be right. Sometimes these sellers are ESL. The 2 likely refers to the fact that there are two inputs on a Vox AC15; a normal channel and top boost channel input. Maybe the seller thinks this is for playing two guitars at the same time or something? In any case, if you see a deal like this on a Vox tube amp you either got supremely lucky or it’s a mistake. **Q: Can you get that 60's mrb effect on this amp?** A: Really.... not really. MRB was very specific and only came on Thomas Organ Sepulveda-made Vox amps of the 60's. This is a good amp for the money, but I had to do a lot of tweaking on mine to get where I wanted to go (and I still may not be 100% yet!) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great recording amp with shimmer *by B***. on July 21, 2020* I needed an amp that had character to go along with my Hot Rod Deluxe which I consider a clean pedal platform and the AC15 did not disappoint.

After putting a Red Lace Sensor Dully in the bridge position of my Jazzmaster, it was time to get back to the tube. And boy am I glad I went for Vox this time!!! From things as simple to the AC15's linear volume tapers that allow an astounding amount of volume control vs. the audio tapers in Fender amps that cause the volume to increase tenfold between 1 and 2 on the pot, to offering the Top Boost input in addition to the Normal input, to the incredibly dynamic response and unmistakeable tube tone and response--this amp is a sure winner all around! (Not too that signature Vox AC series onboard tremolo!) If you worried 15W won't produce enough presence to play gigs, think again. The playable volume range is probably the most impressive AC15 feature I have discovered thus far.
