There´s also a series effects loop with switchable levels to suit rack or stompbox-type effects, and a jack socket for the included footswitch, which enables you to toggle the reverb and tremolo effects. The other switch varies the smoothing capacitor values in similar fashion for a tighter or looser response. Next to this are two more switches with rather esoteric functions: one changes the EL84s´ cathode bias resistor values, giving you a choice of either the early four-input model´s 22-watt output with less headroom or the extended headroom and higher output (around 33 watts) of a six-input AC30. On the rear panel you´ll find jack sockets to hook up external speakers with an impedance switch. Tremolo has been retained, with speed and depth controls, and finally there´s a master volume and the traditional backwards ‘cut´ control, which takes out highs as you turn the knob clockwise. As it was with the AC30HW, reverb is an integral part of the Custom Classic, featuring tone and level controls combined with a useful Dwell switch that varies the reverb circuit´s input level. Then there are volume, treble and bass controls for the Top Boost channel and another switch that allows you to swap between standard and ‘custom´ EQ types. The normal channel has a single volume control with a toggle switch marked ‘brilliance´ that adds extra highs.

Next to these is a small toggle switch that allows you to ‘jumper´ both channels together, replacing the patch lead many players use on standard AC30s, to thicken up the sound and widen the amps tonal range. There are two input jacks - one for the normal channel and one for the Top Boost channel. The Custom Classic´s controls are an interesting mix of old and new with a number of cool ‘boutique´ features. Just like an original AC30, to replace any valve means taking the chassis out and you may also need a soldering iron to disconnect the speaker leads. Preamp valve bases are soldered into the main vertical PCB, while the power valves are hand-wired. The electronics (including all the controls) are PCB mounted on a mixture of double and single-sided boards connected by neat wiring. Dimensions (W x D x H): 702 x 265 x 556 mm / 27.64 x 10.43 x 21.The chassis follows the original AC30 L-shape layout, with preamp valves mounted horizontally and power valves (including a GZ34 rectifier) mounted vertically.Additionally, a 2nd extension speaker jack allows you to run an extra 16 ohm cabinet along with the internal speakers for a fuller sound. All models in the Custom Series offer a switchable 8/16 ohm output jack for powering an external speaker cabinet when you need to speak with a little more authority using this jack will mute the internal speakers.

The AC30C2X uses two 12" Celestion Alnico Blues. The AC30C2 uses two 12" Celestion G12M Greenback speakers. The AC30C2 and the AC30C2X amps make use of 3 x 12AX7 preamp tubes and use 4 x EL84 tubes to deliver 30 watts of power. True "Bypass" switching takes the entire effect loop out of the circuit. The AC30C2 and AC30C2X also provide an effects loop for incorporating your favourite effects into your sound. All Custom Series amps can use the VOX VFS2 footswitch, allowing you to turn the Reverb and Tremolo effects on and off as you continue to play. The AC30C2 and AC30C2X also include an additional tone control in the Reverb section.

A warm Spring Reverb is also included on all Custom Series amps, adding spaciousness to the sound. Both the speed and the depth are adjustable, allowing you to generate just the sound you want. You can sweeten the sound of your Custom Series amplifier using the VOX Classic Tremolo effect. By balancing the individual and Master volumes, the Custom Series can deliver everything from a clean VOX "chimey" sound to a powerful overdriven tone. The Master Volume control works in conjunction with the individual volumes of each channel to create just the right degree of gain-staging. The Tone Cut control operates in the power stage rather than the preamp stage, allowing an additional degree of tone-shaping. This powerful channel pairing provides an abundance of tone-crafting control, letting you dial in a classic sound that is all your own.īoth channels rely on the Tone Cut and Volume controls in the Master section. Each channel is equipped with its own Volume control, and the Top Boost channel offers highly interactive Treble and Bass tone controls. VOX Custom Series amps offer two channels: Normal and Top-Boost. The VOX AC30 combo amp has been an icon for decades, known as the sound that powered the 1960s' "British Invasion." Based on the classic AC30 design, the all-new Custom Series AC30C2 and AC30C2X offer numerous up-todate enhancements, delivering the most versatile AC30 design in VOX history.
