Vox AC15C1 Guitar Combo Amplifier (15 Watts, 1×12 in.)

The Vox AC15C1 Custom amp offers two channels: Normal and Top-Boost. A volume control is equipped on each channel, with the Top Boost channel providing highly interactive Bass and Treble tone controls. It’s a powerful channel pairing, one that delivers an incredible amount of control as you hone in on that sound that is totally yours.

If you wish, you can sweeten the sound of your Vox AC15C1 Custom amp by using the VOX Classic Tremolo effect. With adjustable speed and depth, it allows you to produce the exact sound you want. This amp also includes a Spring Reverb to bring a spaciousness to the sound. In addition, you can use the VOX VFS2 footswitch so you can toggle the Tremolo and Reverb effects on and off while you are playing.

The AC15C1 utilizes 3 x 12AX7 preamp tubes as well as a pair of EL84 tubes to drive a single 12-inch Celestion G12M Greenback. The Vox AC15C1 offers a switchable 8/16 ohm output jack if you want to power an external speaker cabinet for those times when you simply want more authority. Using this jack will cause the internal speakers to become muted. Also, a 2nd extension speaker jack provides a way to run an extra 16 ohm cabinet along side the internal speakers if you are looking for a fuller sound.

The AC15 was originally introduced in 1958, and has been an amp of choice for countless guitar players around the world. With more than 50 years of expertise in the amp building arena, you know you will be getting solid craftsmanship and complete tonal dexterity with the Vox AC15C1.

<b>Vox AC15C1 Guitar Combo Amplifier (15 Watts, 1×12 in.) Reviews and Opinions:</b>

While there aren’t as many reviews of this product as some others, what we did find was that most people are happy with this product and are pleased with what Vox has done with this amplifier. One reviewer even gave it the full ten star rating in every department.

It was stated that it doesn’t have a lot of features – 2 channels, one with EQ and one without. But the analog trem is very nice. Even though some people might find the reverb a little muddy, this current version is a big improvement over the last one, with this reviewer feeling that it sounds nice dialed in around 4. They didn’t technically know what type of reverb it is, but said it sounds more like a hall reverb than a spring reverb if that helps.

This reviewer stated that this amp has the tone they’ve been searching for their whole life, a creamy natural British overdrive that is just perfect. This amp breaks up very nicely at low volumes so it doesn’t really need a dirty channel. However, if you are looking for a clean amp, then you may be better off looking at a different amp. While you can get it by keeping the gain low, you simply won’t be able to get that Fender type tone.

The reviewer mentioned that they were a little worried about the volume since they play in a loud 7 piece punk band, but during practice the volume rests around 5. It’s honestly very loud, not only for a 15 watt amp, but for any 1 x 12. They stated you can’t go wrong. With a couple knobs and a couple switches, just crank up the channel volume for overdrive, or stay on the master for clean and you’re done.

Another person said the amp itself is amazing with beautiful tone. This reviewer is a mod freak and they don’t think they are going to touch this one at all unless it needs new valves. What they didn’t like so much, and felt was a considerable drawback, was that no foot switch was included. In their opinion, not including a $30 pedal was pretty silly.

If you are a fan of the Vox sound for British invasion and Classic Rock then this amp is great. With this new design, people felt that it couldn’t be better. One reviewer has had his for about 3 months so far, and hasn’t had a single problem yet. If you are worried about it being made in China, you can rest assured that it’s under strict Vox British design and this amp has been flawlessly put together.
