Twiz Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 So, today I turned 35. Holy crap. Anyway, my awesome girlfriend got me this, a Vox ACTV4. I've been gassing for one for a while now. It sounds really awesome on the 1/4 watt setting (sweet natural overdrive at a good Saturday morning volume), and it seems to love all the pedals I've put in front of it. I'm stoked!
Jeff-7 Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Gratz Twiz! Sure have a pretty good woman in your life
gypsyseven Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Happy birthday and congrats to this awesome amp and of course to your colo girlfriend.Seems she knows how to make a man happy! I need one these mini Voxes too.I wanna get that great Vox sound i get out of my AC30 with one of these at home, at "neighbourfriendly" volume...
Twiz Posted November 6, 2011 Author Posted November 6, 2011 Gratz Twiz! Sure have a pretty good woman in your life Haha. Ain't that the truth? I mean, in the grand scheme of things, stuff like this isn't what is important in a relationship, but it sure is nice to get something cool every once in a while. I definitely thank my lucky stars regularly.

Yea, the late night practicing thing was mainly why I wanted one. The 1/4 watt setting rules. It sounds really cool with a Big Muff. -Kinda like the tone Neil Young has on Rockin In The Free World.

I love it so! Neil Young tone is awesome
Tim Plains Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Happy belated birthday. I had an AC4 for a while but got rid of it. Cool little amps.
Californiaman Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Welcome to the wonderful world of small watt amplifiers and a belated happy birthday Twiz. Rock on.
Thundergod Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Happy belated birthday man! That amp is really nice!
Dub-T-123 Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Happy Birthday Twiz! Sweet amp. I love the Vox sound. I bet a Big Muff does sound pretty rad slamming that. Particularly your green Muff <3
EVOL! Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Happy birthday, brother. Having been 35 before, it ain't old. Keep rocking while you can. And sweet amp.
bonzoboy Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Congrats and Happy Birthday,your amp and girlfriend are both first rate.I've had a love afair with Vox amps ever since the early Beatle days and I have 2 so far along with an AC30 Amplug which is a fabulous little practice amp.
Twiz Posted November 7, 2011 Author Posted November 7, 2011 Thanks for the b-day wishes guys. I really like the tone I'm getting on 1/4 watt with the volume and tone at about 12:00. I tried it with an old RAT, then a DOD Preamp 250 Overdrive, and finally with my Russian Big Muff. The Muff sounds best to me at the moment.
