From Our Research Team:Record and Practice with Vox Tube Tones!Vox's new AC4TVH head is a cool Class A all-tube practice and recording amp solution, based on Vox's famous AC4 from the 1960s. Sporting improvements on the hardware of its vintage counterpart, but retaining all the best features - the AC4TVH retains the distinctive EL84 power tube of the original, and offers a 12AX7 powered preamplifier and a custom-made Celestion 10" speaker on the combo. Plus, to give you classic tube tone at any level, there's a built-in power attenuator with 4-watt / 1-watt / 1/4-watt output levels on the Vox AC4TVH head.Vox AC4TVH 4-watt Tube Guitar Amplifier Head at a Glance:
A modern improvement of a classic Vox design Back in 1961, Vox unleashed the first AC4 amplifier - and today, they've introduced a modern retooling of this classic design. At 4 watts, with all-tube circuitry, the new AC4TVH may well be the perfect practice solution for great tones at low volumes - and it's also well suited to recording applications, thanks to a built-in 4-watt to 1-watt power attenuator. Affordable 4-watt all-tube amp head with 1958-style cabinetry The Class A Vox AC4TVH retains the distinctive EL84 power tube found on the original Vox AC4. But, it now features a 12AX7 powered preamplifier that works in tandem with the EL84. Pair it with the matching V112TV 1x12" cabinet, and expect retro-chic tone - and that's also the vibe you're going to get, as the Vox AC4TVH features a 1958 AC15-style "TV" front design, with the Vox's signature diamond grillecloth. All in all, this impressive feature sets makes the AC4TVH one of the best bang-for-your-buck amp heads available. Built-in power attenuator for great tube tone at lower volumes When you're practicing - or recording - with your high-wattage all-tube amplifier, it's simply hard to achieve those classic tube tones at listening levels. The Vox AC4TVH, however, is designed to solve that problem. Already a 4-watt amp, the Vox AC4TVH gives you incredible tone when you need to crank it to reasonable levels. But, for tremendous tone at really manageable levels, you can use its built-in power attenuator to take it from four watts down to just one watt, then down to just 1/4" watt. It's the perfect partner for late night recording sessions, when you don't want to wake up the neighbors. Vox AC4TVH 4-watt Tube Guitar Amplifier Head Features:
The Vox AC4TVH offers up all-tube Vox tone - at practice- and record-ready volume levels!

Reviewsbased on 6 reviewsGREAT little amp!!!
by EW from SD
This is one GREAT little amp! I am absolutely blown away at how great it sounds straight out of the box. I'm using it with an American Deluxe Telecaster, and an open back cab with a single 12 in it. 4... read more [+] watts is much louder then I thought it would be. Love the OP Level switch. Turn it down to 1 or 1/4 watt and you can get some great tone at home with out freaking out the neighbors. I plan to upgrade the tubes at some point, but all in all this a must buy for home studio owners or someone that wants great tone at a reasonable volume. Thanks again to Nick Schenkel at Sweetwater for setting me up with some great gear. close [-]

by Flood from Brooklyn, New York
I purchase this amp at my local store, I am happy to see that it works well with my pedals and my Gibson Les Paul Traditional Plus. Don't let the wattage fool you. It can get loud in my apartment. ... read more [+]I don't hear the pick making any sound through my amp as I would hear from my Fender Super Champ XD. My old amp is still worth keeping. The controls are simple. The only modification that I made was purchasing a Monster Studio Pro 1000 speaker cable for both the amp and the cab. I just wanted the best sound I get through this with this cable brand. I could practice late nights without waking up my neighbors. The only thing that I want to get for this amp is a reverb pedal. close [-]

by Darryl from Nelson, New Zealand
Firstly, let me explain my setup. I have a 1997 (Korean) Epiphone Dot with Pete Biltoft (Vintagevibe Guitars) custom,hand wound P90's and upgraded wiring. Beautiful guitar. Line 6 Pod Xt Pro, and now,... read more [+] my new Vox AC4TVH with matching V112TV cabinet with 1 X 12" Celestion. I have been playing on and off for over 30 years and have been a professional sound engineer in the distant past. I am totally stunned with the results I can get out of my little rig. I only play for my own enjoyment now and this suits me perfectly although I can certainly see how this could be used in a stage or recording situation. On it's own it sounds great. Add some effects (this little Vox loves pedals) and boutique sound is only a tweak away. Grab one and see for yourself. close [-]

Ive had my AC4 for several weeks and I am completely blown away. It sounded good out of the box. It was loud enough for basement jamming with a drummer (who has a little control), cranked all the way ... read more [+]up it had the VOX british invasion kind of grind that was neat. Since then I have changed the Tubes from stock sovtek to an NOS Valvo EL84 and a 1962 Raytheon - Long black plate 12AX7. Im using a Danelectro "Cool Cat" OTC-1 oveverdrive, A danelctro Vibe and an Electro Harmonix Holy grail reverb and the result can only be described as mind blowing. Ive been recording at home on the 1 watt and 1/4 power levels and the sound im getting is something like a 5000 dollar stage rig. After warming it up for about 5 minutes, Im getting tone from this little AC4 and a squire "60's vibe" stratocaster, (at low conversation volume) that is about equivalent to a 40 watt blackface fender after running hot half the night. unbeliveable. close [-]
January 1, 2010 Music Background: music teacher, guitar builder Authentic VOX AC amp sound

This is a fantastic sounding little guitar amp and im very pleased that some of the "legacy" Amp makers, like VOX, are responding to the demand for high quality, low priced amps based on the classic m... read more [+]odels. This amp is every inch a part of the AC line of VOX amps. In fact, it has all the tone of the AC 15, but without the tone cut and top boost, or extra gain stages. When I play I like to start with a good sounding/playing instrument and a good, basic tube amp model. With playing music, Tone is like the artist's pigments or the sculptors clay..its dosent need to be complicated it just needs to be good. A good tube amp produces a few basic, dynamic, usable electric guitar sounds. It responds dynamicly to the kind and quality of guitar, and the ability of the player. This amp meets that definaition 100%. close [-]
