Product Rating Product Review I have wanted a Vox amp since I first picked up the guitar. I finally decided that I would go all out and get the best Vox that is on the market. I was not disappointed in my decision. It is a very simple amp to dial in, the controls are well laid out. The variety of switching options are what make this amp so versatile. The 1/2 power switch, the hot/cool switch, and the master volume bypass switch all convert this amp into whatever you need it to do. For the most part, it takes pedals well, and the Greenback speakers are a good compliment to the amp. The fit and finish are quality. Overall, an excellent Vox product.

Product Review Hand wired is the way to go. This amp is so clean and versatile. I have played through other Vox amps but the sounds that come from this one will melt you. Have played Marshall to Mesa to Orange. There is no better value for the money. I highly recommend for any level of player.

Product Review If I could give this more than 5 stars I would. To say that this amp is amazing is an understatement. I had been looking for a certain sound with my guitar and this did it. Hands down best purchase I ever made

Classic AC30 tone

Product Review I was hoping that the HW series would be close to the earlier AC30TB and I’m happy to see that it will get you in the ballpark. There are some gorgeous tones to be found in this amplifier. The normal channel is well voiced and the lack of tone controls is not a problem at all. The top boost channel is excellent as well, with more jangle, and chime than the normal channel. You can dial in just the right amount of bass and treble and the hot switch adds some growl and oomph. If you’re after a more traditional sound, the master volume bypass switch is there for you. I love this amp!

Vox AC30's will always be one of the GREATS!

Product Review I'm a big rock fan and I've always heard about the AC30 growing up my whole life from bands such as The Beatles (Obviously) to modern bands like Tame Impala and Arctic Monkeys. I love British products and music the most (though I am a yankee). The AC30 might keep evolving because of where it's manufactured and such, but it still sounds spectacular. I was thinking about getting the 60th anniversary since it's made in England, but I just couldn't wait and I'm glad I got this version.

The Holy Grail of Tone

Product Review The Vox Ac30HW2 is by far one of the best amplifiers I’ve had the pleasure of playing. The versatility allows me to dial in any range of tone from a mild break up to over the top round aggressiveness. With the Vox Ac0HW2 you can start with a phenomenal clean tone then dial in the perfect amount natural “break up”. If you’re looking for extra bite you can plug into the “Top Boost Channel” on the high input for a more aggressive style. I am constantly getting complimented on my range of tones after our sets! Not to mention the amp looks beautiful on stage with its unique aesthetic. I love the fact that it’s handwired so I know it can handle the road and long tours. American Musical Supply made it easy for me to purchase the amplifier with their easy no - interest payment plans!

Tone for Days

Product Review I've been through a few iterations of the Vox AC30, including the Custom Classic 2. This amp still puts out that jangly bright tone that Vox is known for, but builds on it so much more. The hand-wired nature of the amp makes all the difference. Incredible breakup on the the top boost channel, with the added "Hot" channel for the extra gain (which can pretty on par with high gain metal drive). The Normal channel is perfect for running a pedalboard and multiple drive pedals. I know the AC30 is known for being temperamental with running drive pedals, but that is not the case with this amp. Ran A Bondi Effects Sick As Overdrive through it and it sounded incredible. The amp can be as versatile as you want it to be. If you are looking for the classic Vox tone, this is the epitome of it. If you want a nice amp with a great drive section, but need a good foundation to run a pedalboard through and achieve a wider range of tones--this amp can do it just as well.

Fabulous build on this amp, from all points! If their was one amp of a lifetime to sacrifice for this is the one, it will never come up short on its mojo! over the years, vox has made considerable changes in its operations, and now has rock solid gear. The ac30 hw2 represents their absolute finest hand wired offering to date! Your general opinion of this product. vox really produced a stunning amp with the ac30 hw2. Its absolutely phenomenal! This amp will definitely improve your playing, as it really puts you in touch with all the little things your missing and not hearing! Superb tone, and I should know being a tone freak! I was put off at first with the blonde finish, but seeing it in person it really is super classy! Controls are silky smooth, and very responsive!
