Vox AC30HWR2 30W Hand-Wired Combo Amplifier with Greenback Speakers Classic British Power with a Warmer Edge Few amplifiers have shaped music history like the VOX AC30.

Ghost notes and noise have been eliminated, but the dynamic character is preserved. Custom Transformers, Vintage Cabinet Resonance A key part of the AC30 Hand-Wired’s voice comes from its custom-wound output transformer, developed to recreate the harmonic signature of original ’60s units. The cabinet uses 12mm birch ply, just like the vintage models, for optimal resonance and openness. With two 12″ Celestion G12M Greenbacks inside, the result is unmistakably VOX, but with an edge.
