  • i have the AC30c2 from ebay and the dude sent it with mullard power tubes and tung sol preamps and i did a side by side comparison with them and the stock ones and WOW, it is really worth upgrading the tubes, much warmer with a smoother tone without losing any chime.

  • @BCGadgets awesome thanks for the heads up. I hear a lot of good things about Mullard tubes! I'll check into it when the current set finally expire :)

  • Your blues playing and tone really kick ass.

  • @pinksynth thanks for the nice comments mate :)

  • Great job! I own the ac15c1, and like it, you're getting some great tone out of it. The ac30 sounds more full, but that's the only real difference to me sitting on this side of the screen. Does your ac30 have Greenbacks too, or blues?

  • @jlovinlummus Thanks. I'm a greenback fan, both of the amps have those :)

  • No doubt. The AC15 wins this round.

  • I've got to get my hands on a vintage AC30 one of these days. That's the Brian May sound right there!

  • @jlovinlummus They sound equivalent to me, too, with the extra fullness of the 30 probably being due to the cabinet size. I like the tightness of the 15 better.

  • @ec101dm I think VOX wins this round

  • I love my AC15c1 with the alnico blue. I AB it with my Super Reverb and get my blues on.

  • Like the AC-15 better... The AC-30 sounded a little bit twangy.

  • I'm a novice and thanks for shedding some light in the matter!

  • youve got to be careful of mic clipping.

  • I've always had a problem with the Vox combos. A friend of mine had several vintage Vox heads, and you could play them through different speaker cabs, different speakers, closed/open backs etc... and the tonal differences were just amazing. With the combos, I've always felt limited. But what a limit. Stuck between killer, and killer. At least with the vintage Vox style amps, you can't lose.

  • @ec101dm doubt
