The legend itself, the AC30.
Anonymous 01.05.2015
This thing is huge! If you're looking for a home practice amp this certainly won't be suitable. It's tremendously loud and could be used in many medium to large sized venues.

It's super heavy, almost 4 stone! The handles seems sturdy enough but it's too early to tell. At this point though the quality seems good enough to last a good while.

The good thing about this amp is the master volume. In previous AC30's the only way to get a good warm distortion was to crank the volume up full meaning to have a nice tone you had to deafen your bandmates - not any more! Now you can crank up the volume for the tone, and control the overall master with the master section. Another cool feature is the spring reverb which is super sweet. Also the tremelo is a nice touch and sounds crisp even if I don't use it much myself.

The sound it legendary. It's a powerhouse and sounds so warm you wouldn't believe. Despite it being an old design this amp is suitable for hundreds of genres too - from blues, to rock, to pop, to metal, this amp could do it all!

Amazing buy and I'm glad to be a proud owner of an AC30. No complaints, simply awesome.

Always wanted one...
Dansto 06.10.2021
It did not disappoint.
Ooozes quality.
This amp is loud, and I mean really loud. This sounds as loud as my 100 watt Orange. Amazing clean tones, through to proper nasty chrunchy rock goodness. Versatile even without pedals, but takes pedals really well too, especially with delay and mods in the effects loop.
It a beast to carry, a two person lift if more than a few meters - but luckily has a handle at each end!
It's hard to fault really.

The classic british invasion sound
Anonymous 19.02.2017
I've been looking for an old AC30 since a long time, and when this one came out I was a bit skeptical. When it arrived to my house, it was very hard to bring it upstairs. Its a heavy combo, but it sounds incredible. There was a couple little unfinished details on the outside, but for the price it's totally worth it.

Its not very easy to carry it around but its a great amp for playing gigs and getting that old rock and roll sound!

VOX AC 30 c2
MarcoDores 20.07.2020
Excellent and versatile amplifier.
I have been playing guitar for over 30 years now and have several renowned amplifiers.
Really this is one of those who came to stay.
That classic British vox AC30 sound that we've heard by the hand of so many musicians over time...
In my opinion more faithful to Classico Vox than previous versions CC2.
Well done Vox !
Very satisfied with the equipment !
With Thomann's service, excellent as ever accustomed me.
I'll buy it back at Thomann.
Congratulations to the whole team !
Musical Greetings !

Whatever you want the amplifier to do, that will be
Goran H. 14.06.2018
A unique sound lab! Everything you want and what needs to be in one place ! R & B, Rock, Country, Funk, Soul, Jazz... Each guitar sounds uniquely in its original tonal manner, and is the sound of the best release. At home, in a studio, in a small or big club, or at a stadium, this has made the job fantastic : "At the 2010 Winter NAMM expo Vox introduced the Custom series; these models were updates to the 2004 Custom Classic series amplifiers and featured two channels (Normal and Top Boost) with two inputs for each channel (High and Low), more akin to the original AC30/4 layout released in 1958. It was available with either Greenback speakers (C2) or Alnico Blue Speakers (C2x), and was also available as the AC15. Later limited edition models include the AC30BL, a tygoon blue tolex with grey speaker cloth, an AC30C2RD with a red finish, an AC30C2-BRG a British Racing Green tolex finish with a grey speaker cloth and the AC30C2 Black Comet; featuring a patterned finish all are identical to the C2. The amp featured an option known as "Jumping" where the High-Normal channel could be linked to the Low-Top Boost channel with a patch lead, whilst the guitar is plugged into the High-Top Boost channel, allowing both channels to sound and create a fuller, thicker overdrive sound. The amp also featured a solid-state rectifier to increase reliability. Controls include a Normal volume, Top Boost Volume, Treble and Bass controls, Reverb Tone and Level controls, Tremolo Speed and Depth controls, a Tone Cut control (to add further control over the higher-frequencies), a Master Volume, and a Standby and Power Switch. A true bypass effects loop, extension cab output and external cab output were also included; as well as an input for the external foot switch (to control Reverb and Tremolo). The amps are produced in China. The amps were released to critical success, garnering awards such as Music Radar's "Guitarist Choice" award."

This is got everything what you need
TomasS 20.05.2013
I tryed couple of amps and this one was my dream. I think you don't need to search for some amps from 65 etc. this amp have got everything from past plus lot of new things. Amps is very personal thing to choose as guitarist but this should try everyone because it's so much universal! I'm extremely happy I've got this one at home!

AMAZING
Brunek 07.12.2022
It really is everything what people say. The tones on this thing... especially with a strat... It just gives me the sound I've been trying to find. Very versitile since you have 4 channels to chose from which you can also jump.

there's a reason this is a classic
midoriya 13.05.2022
I love how this amp can do anything with the right guitar.
It does clean and edge of breakup stuff really well, and it can get even in to high gain teritory really well and have great pinch harmonics with really high output pickups.

it has the british sound with a great chime to it and jumping channels is really fun.

I was worried a bit about some online previews stating there is a rattling when playing but mine doesn't have that issue, either they fixed it or I got lucky.

Would I recommend this? of course I do, it can get that twangy "american" sound and has the typical british character too.

the 2 band eq controls seem limiting and are tricky to handle at first (if you're used to the more common 3 band eq that most amps have) but they work together, adding highs also removes low end and vice versa. it takes some getting used to but is really fun when you know what they more or less do!

I'm sure this amp can last a lifetime with the right usage, it seems to be build very sturdy and is quite heavy too.

Amazing amp.
Great Distortion tones, Great Clean Tones!
Pretty heavy to handle around but can be easily treated with a nice home made crate with wheels!

What an Amp
jordrp 06.08.2021
I bought this as my full gigging amp and she's a BEAST. I'll warn you with certain pedals they're almost too loud. It's a proper AC30 through and through. Do yourself a favour and stop reading this review and just buy it....
