Tman Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Great 10 watt tube class A amp. What amazes me, and I just bought a class A amp, is the total depedence on the pick attack for a clean versus overdriven sound. When he played clean and had any attack, i heard sustain. Great sounding Vox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff-7 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 That sounded fantastic, very tempting. I'm seeing them in the mid $400 range, not a terrible price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 You know, what I'd love to see, now...is a comparison demo, on the AC-10 to the AC-15. Only 5 watts difference, and a 12 inch speaker, on the AC-15, at about a $100-150 price difference. The AC-15 would have a larger cabinet, so "bigger" bottom end tone. Yet would seem to be quite usable in bedroom to venue applications, as well. So...??? Which IS the better choice? CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Marshall Slash SL5 class A.... Its only 5w and I wasn't sure if it was going to be loud enough for jamming or gigging purposes.. The thing about this model is that it has a 12" Celestion Vintage 30 Speaker rather than the usual 10" speaker you would find in a 5w model... and I reckon it makes all the difference... So I took it to a jam that I had with Farns when he came and tried my guitars out (hes playing through the Slash Amp throughout the vid)... And from what I remember the volume was on like 7 or 8 and it was more than loud enough to be heard over the drums and when I was playing too.... (and hes a loud drummer :)) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okn5zNSKlIY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Yeah, Rabs, I know you're right. But, I have a little Marshal AVT 20, with a 10" and it sounds much deeper, bass wise, than my Blues Jr. Of course, the Marshall has a closed back, and slightly larger cabinet, than the Blues Jr. So, there are lots of factors, regarding amp tone, and/or including voicing. Still, it would be nice, if "The Captain," and "Chappers," would do a side by side, of the AC-10 and AC-15. just to see what the "actual" differences are, if much?

jdgm Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I have an ORIGINAL Vox AC10 amp - just the amp, in a box like a rabbit hutch. 8 ohms only, fantastically thick tone. There is nothing thicker than an old Vox IMO. I was given it in non-working condition. I've spent £££ on it and now it's going wrong again. I'm considering selling. Trouble with the old Vox Class A was/is that they run 'full-on' all the time and so valves and components burn out quick. I also had Vox bass gear - 2 of those 1 x 15" cabs which were built like brick sh*thouses, my God those things were heavy - and a 60w bass amp...which regularly blew for the same reason. Now Vox is owned by Korg....ironic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
