Vox AC30CC2X Custom Classic Amp at a Glance:

• A historic guitar amp brought into the 21st century
  
• Flexible amp with spring reverb, blendable channels and more
  
• A ton of control possibilities
  
• Two Celestion Alnico "Blue" Speakers
  
• A total VOX experience!

History in the making
Why has the AC30 been an icon for decades? It's the amplifier's unique, warm tone, its player friendly "feel" and its primeval circuit design. With its straightforward "what you see is what you get" control format, the AC30 was a hit with artists from the very beginning. Back then, Vox owned the '60s "British Invasion" and to this day the AC30 is widely used by all kinds of guitarists performing in a huge range of musical styles.

Two blendable channels, a first
Not only does the AC30CC2X Custom Classic include two channels, it also offers the ability to blend those channels together (a first for the AC30!). The Top Boost Channel serves up that classic AC30 tone, while the new expanded Normal Channel now offers two modes, Normal and Bright, which allow you to achieve the sounds of an assortment of vintage AC30s. Use the channels individually or blend them together for increased tonal flexibility to create a unique sound and feel that's all your own. Plus, the AC30CC2X Custom Classic features a true bypass FX loop, spring reverb and master volume. It's an evolution of the original that is sure to become a classic in its own right.

Control freaks, rejoice!
The AC30CC2X Custom Classic is fully equipped with well thought out and easy to use controls. With a Custom/Normal EQ switch, Tone control and Dwell switch for the spring reverb, Master Volume, fully variable Tremolo on all channels and a true bypass Effects Loop, VOX has thought of everything! They've even included a switchable cathode resistor that lowers power output and increases tube life. Of course, the AC30CC2X Custom Classic comes with VOX standard controls like Treble, Bass, Tone, Volume, Standby and more.

Two Celestion Alnico "Blue" Speakers
The AC30CC2X features two Celestion Alnico "Blue" speakers in an enclosure with brown grille cloth. Each 12" speaker has a power capacity of 15 watts. This speaker was the world’s first dedicated guitar loudspeaker and is a part of rock history. Back in the 1950s, Celestion witnessed the emergence of a new breed of musician – the electric guitarist – and responded to their needs for a rugged, reliable loudspeaker by modifying the G12 radio speaker. The unique tonal character of the Celestion Blue, combined with the tube amps of the time, helped to define the electric guitar as we know it today.

The Blue has a bright, lively character with a carefully controlled bottom end and shimmering highs which remains popular and distinctive to this day. Loaded into the AC30CC2x's 2 x 12" cabinet, this legendary loudspeaker suits a wide range of playing styles.

A total Vox experience!
In order to achieve tonal nirvana, the AC30CC2X is manufactured in Vox's vertically integrated manufacturing facility. What this means for you is that Vox has total control of the design, the quality and the sound of your amplifier. Their factory is capable of many processes not found in most guitar amplifier factories. Vox designs and manufactures their own transformers, speakers (except for the venerable Vox "Blue" and "NeoDog" which are manufactured by Celestion), cabinets and they build their own electronics. All components have been designed, manufactured or selected so that the performance and sound of your AC30CC2X Custom Classic is second to none.
