From the listing

Seller's description

To commemorate the 50th Anniversary of VOX guitar amplifiers in 2007, Vox first introduced the AC15H1TV, and later the same year, the AC30H2. As the ultimate collectible AC-30, Vox issued the AC30H2 in a mahogany enclosure. The amp used a EF86 preamp tube, the same valve used in Vox amps manufactured in the late 50s and early 60s. This is one of the finest VOX amplifiers in the 50 year history of Vox. EF86: The tube with the magical VOX tone What is it that makes EF86 based VOX amplifiers sound so good? Maybe it’s the way the amp naturally overdrives. Or maybe it’s the raw power of the creamy distortion as you crank the amp all the way up. Whatever it is, there is an undeniable magic about this period of VOX amplification. The EF86 Pentode tube is at the heart of this elusive tone, and for many years, the EF86 tube was not available in production quantities. Fifty years later, the magic returns. The 30-watt AC30H2L mahogany hand wired amp features two channels of VOX tone through a pair of 12" Celestion Alnico “Blue” speakers. The tube complement is made up of 1 x EF86, 3 x ECC83/12AX7, 4 x EL84, and 1 x GZ34 (rectifier). This is a stunning example of a vary rare amp. It's spent the majority of it's life in storage with only a few hours of home use so is in mint condition. Comes with original tags and leather cover.
