VOX AC15C1 Amp - Demo - Review - whatever

[VicVega666]

I just bought one of these off Amazon after a little research and this video. Cheers bro. Thanks for the vid.

[juanking1234]

dude, a question, how often i have to change the tubes, its necessary to change it ??? thaks

[NakedEliminator]

is it good for soloing or should i look up for something different from this?

[Mikeyluvsfootie]

how loud does this amp go with the volume kept down so you have a clean tone and the master cranked? is it loud enough to gig with?

[astrophysics123]

How do you increase the gain on this amp?

[McScottson]

@astrophysics123 turn the volume knob up (not the master volume)

[volcom1722]

Is it loud enough for a gig? And how would you compare it to an AC30VR? Thanks man!!

[saleorreturn]

Here's a question for ya, Where did you get that amp stand!? Great playing!

[TheChippyRick]

what's your rat set at? i have the same pedal. just wondering.

[Qoooba95]

nice nice it was good dude :D how does it take pedals anyway? i heard lots of stuff bout this one...

[whycrynow123]

Nice playing haha amp sounds nice~

[spentonmediocrity]

Nice tone...your guitar has that warm and clear pluncky tone that I'm after.I like the Vox ac15 as well and suspect it would sound even better with a good alnico speaker in there

[teccdeccdude231]

I was thinking about getting one, but I need an amp that will fill up a small stage with a monstrous sound and the 15W kind of turns me off. Does it support external cabinets? If it does, I would definitely be into getting this thing.

[RawjerLee]

@teccdeccdude231 It does support external cabinets. Just be sure to check the impedance levels. However, if you crank the volume to 10 and then use the master to adjust to your liking, I'm sure that it'll do fine.

[teccdeccdude231]

@RawjerLee Alright, thanks, I'm going to guitar center tomorrow to go pick one up. Haha.

[whycrynow123]

@teccdeccdude231 It supports 2 external cabs.

[joelstrand96]

Seriously. You look like the most kick-ass guy ever!

And yes, Love the amp!

[harlesslee]

Thanks for the excellent description and good playing. I got a good feel for this amplifier, from your review. I hope you can maybe do more of them. I always felt that the elegance of English, as spoken BY the English, was a treat when reviewing or describing complex things in a simple and straightforward manner.

[Giova7]

Nice demo of the sounds man.

[qondawacho]

why every ac15c1 demo sucks??

[ericclapton00028]

fuck the blues????? dislike? :-o

are u crazy?

[06aldhelms]

Looking into getting this amp in the near future - how much did you pay and was it worth it? (Sounds beautiful).

Brilliant review by the way.

[St9ler]

This is really good review or demo or whatever.

[NintendoSinceBirth1]

i have a question will turning up the master to 10 and leaving the regular volume lower make this amp distort?

[theflatheadkid]

@NintendoSinceBirth1 No you need to do the opposite, jack the normal volume to distort, and then use the master to keep it quite.

[karlboman]

Actual playing starts around 1:20, followed soon by more talk (about the reverb).

[johnnysomersett]

@karlboman ... sorry about that, a REVIEW normally has opinion built in - hard to express an opinion without actually speaking.

Maybe I should refer to one of your demos... oh no, you haven't done ANY.

[karlboman]

@johnnysomersett Hey, no need to get snippy. I'm considering buying one of these and I'm listening to lots of demos here on YT: I suspect most who do the same already know what the controls are/do. Didn't notice much in the way of opinion. I have no problem with the demo itself, shows the versatility of this amp well I thought. The playing is not sh*tty!

Demos will appear, if I can be bothered, when I have something interesting to actually demo.

[MarkThomasMusic]

@johnnysomersett well said brother

[antigrav118]

@johnnysomersett =tiny penis aggression.

[skylorz]

I now have a 30 watt marshall, will this have more power?????

[HoneydewHuey]

The playing wasn't bad at all, although it did sound like your axe is out of tune. Thanks for the demo, I'm looking to get this amp so I'm listening to all those I can find and this one is more helpful than many, for sure.

[camringland]

@HoneydewHuey have you ever seen a jazzmaster able to keep tune? :)

[johnnysomersett]

@camringland I dont understand, have you ever played a jazzmaster? They hold tune almost perfectly! Even with extreme whammy use!

I dont remember checking tuning before recording though, my bad

[camringland]

@johnnysomersett hahaha I have a Jazzmaster, I love them. I'm just pulling your leg man :) keep rockin good vid.

[Spiv62]

Nice demo... Close to buying a new amp. this helps.

[jackntheboks]

is this amp loud enough to play with full band? also does anyone use it to get thrice tones?

[dokkholiday]

I just got the Jaguar version of this guitar last saturday ..and I also bought this amp based on your review ..thanks man awesome vid ..

[thej0hnson]

fukin joosy

[novanine9]

just play...stop talking

[pstrokeslibsarctic]

does it have a switch to change the power supply voltage?? 110v to 220v something like that :D

Thnaks!

[dassmonsterne]

I got the vox ac15c1 to my birthday today!!!!

I love it so much, it's both sound and looks fantastic!!

[bunko74]

wow! a gibson neck. excellent

[TheSwisha420]

where u get the amp stand

[juankang]

isn´t it too loud for a room guitarist ?

[johnnysomersett]

@juankang... nahh, because of the seperate master volume you can cook the tubes with it really quiet

[trepos22]

Gibson neck --- great!! Nice work

[johnnysomersett]

@trepos22 ...gibson neck?

[moop3r]

@trepos22 it's not a gibson neck - some mij jazzmasters released in the 70s had gibson-style trapezoidal inlays. i saw one like this on the sonic youth gear website, and i thought the same thing until i looked it up

[dubox37]

hey great vid! i have one of these too and its awesome. was wondering though, what kind of amp stand is that? looks like what i've been looking for in an amp stand

[greggv19]

Nice demo and licks.... well done. I have a AC15CC1 and am looking to trade up for a AC15c1 with the greeenback.

[lantyboy]

'This slice of crud was brought to you with the letters:

Jazzmaster and Vox,

and the numbers:

ProCo Rat and BBE Two-Timer Delay'

LOL, Nice vid m8, think i might go grab me one of these bad boys

[hdtvoice]

yep, i want one of these as well, but i play some harder stuff.. i wonder how distortion pedals sound through it...

[Replay107]

Seriously thinking about getting one of these, I hear they're better than the CCs before it, not that I'd know. It would be my first "true" valve amp, just dealt with solid state and hybrids before.

I've only got one question, and to put it bluntly, how loud does this go? (I don't care about a bit of breakup) do you think it's up for cutting through even the most narcissistic drummers at a gig?

[7StrangeFruits]

@Replay107 I have one It goes pretty loud It really depends on how big the venue is. Honestly I'd say rent one and play it with your drummer if its not loud enough get an AC30 same thing just bigger and its more mixable if that makes sense.

[danakerman]

@7StrangeFruits Bad advice. An AC30 is only about 3db louder than an AC15 (to double the volume you need to increase the wattage by 10x. Doubling the wattage only increases volume a small amount. Mostly it adds clean headroom). To get louder volumes, it's cheaper and more effective to simply run the amp through a 4x12 or, better yet, a PA if you've got one. Volume is more a function of the speakers and how efficient they are or how many of them there are.

[siriusisastar]

@danakerman Well said. I'd simply dangle a Sennheiser e609 over the front of it, and let the mains in the club do the rest. The mic sounds great -- very transparent, so what you dial in to the amp is what you'll get back through the PA system... and it's only $100+ online.

[danakerman]

@7StrangeFruits For example, the Greenback is rated for 25watts. If you put in a speaker that is rated for 70 watts, like one of the modern Celestions, the amp will be significantly louder (but the tone will likely change). If you have a cab with FOUR of those speakers, you're going to pump out a lot of volume. Running this amp through a 4x12 with Greenbacks would be VERY loud. And cheaper than buying an AC30 that only gives you +3db

[7StrangeFruits]

@danakerman oh ok my mistake

[siriusisastar]

@Replay107 I own one, and play with a drummer who makes 'Animal' from the Muppet show seem like a teenager in a marching band! If you scroll down and read the reply I left for danakerman, I think you'll find that suggestion to be very helpful. :)
