Mark Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 I finally pulled the trigger on a VOX Ac151c,cant wait, it should be here tomorrow. I bought it from AMS. I generally don't by gear online so I am a little nervous. Has anyone bought from them lately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally don't by gear online so I am a little nervous. Has anyone bought from them lately? Congratz and good luck with the Vox. I've never purchased from AMS. I probably would choose Sweetwater for my online buys. But AMS has been around a long time as a legitimate dealer so they should also be trustworthy.

Riffster Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 I have bought from AMS, you have nothing to worry about. Great customer service if you need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluzhammer Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 They are good to deal with, I've bought several items from them. FWIW, they are part of the same corporation as GC and MF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted December 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 Thanks I needed some reassuring. I didn't know they were part of MF & GC I wonder if I could have used some GC gift cards. The main reason I used AMS was that a friend gave me $100 gift card for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twiz Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 Aw man. Cool amp! Put up some clips when you get it. Also, I love AMS. They've always been great when I buy stuff from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub-T-123 Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 That's an awesome amp. You're gonna love it. Aren't you the one who changed the grille on the valvestate vox? Upgrading to the ol ac15? Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDK Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 If the price is the same, I always go AMS over MF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff-7 Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 Contgrats! I think you'll love it. Always good to see more Vox users. No issues at all with AMS, I usually purchase through them and Sweetwater online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonzoboy Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 I'm a die-hard Vox freak-the AC15 is a killer amp and it will bring out the best in any guitar.Congrats,I'm sure that you'll love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejay Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 congrats on the amp! AMS is great...not part of the Musicians Friend/Guitar Center/Music123. Sweetwater is also great to deal with as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This_Dying_Soul Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 I love the Vox sound. So far I've only had less expensive Vox amps, like a 15 watt modelling amp and my AC15VR hybrid amp. My goal in the near future is to get an all tube AC15 as my next amp. I find the tone of the Vox amps work very well with my Gretsch. Haven't really tried my other guitars with just the Vox by itself - I usually use it in a stereo setup through my Visual Sound H20. The last time one of my old friends came by we jammed and he used my Gretsch because he normally plays acoustic and the larger body was more comfortable to him and I let him use the Vox amp. I think he also favors the Gretsch because he's scared to drop my Gibsons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gypsyseven Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 Congrats mate, you will love your Vox.I can´t tell you satisfied i´m with my AC30...Did you got one with a Greenback speaker? If so, you´ll love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted December 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 Thanks for all the positive feedback about AMS and VOX. I just got it and going to open it as soon as I am done with the other billion things I have to do tonight. Now all I need is a Ox and Lamb to keep time and I'll be ready for Christmas. Cheers everyone!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aster1 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Congrats on the AC15!!! I just love mine to pieces. Don't know if the handwired & Alnico blue sound any better than the standard with the greenback. I get great service from MF and their warehouse is just 180 miles from me so quick & easy ride on the FedEx truck. AMS must be just one more of the "family" of GC MF & 123 I guess. I like the discounts from MF that I get via email too. By all means purchase you the beautiful padded VOX cover (got mine from JR for best price) and I love that too. Don't know if North Coast will match their price or not. They have a cool, made for Vox AC amps, chrome amp stand like the old one the Beatles had. Wouldn't mind having that sometime too. Little pricey at $170 but maybe USA made & Chromed. You'll just love that Vox! BTW I need a new OX too. Our young Springer Spaniel had him for 10 mins and ain't much left. At least it was just a supporting actor and not the main characters (you know, the Babe, Mary & Joseph). Aster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
