VOX AC30 Hand-Wired Greenback Tube Guitar Combo Amplifier
Classic VOX Tone with a Bolder Voice
Few amplifiers have shaped music history like the VOX AC30. The AC30 Hand-Wired Greenback version continues that legacy, offering meticulous hand-wired construction and vintage circuit accuracy voiced through Celestion Greenback speakers for a punchier, mid-forward tone and earlier breakup.
This is not simply a reissue. It is a fully hand-crafted tribute to the original copper panel design, refined with modern performance features while preserving the unmistakable VOX character players rely on.
A Warmer Take on a Timeless Voice
The Greenback-equipped AC30 delivers a slightly warmer low end, fuller mids, and smoother top end compared to traditional Alnico-loaded models. This voicing makes it easier to achieve expressive drive and rich harmonic texture at more manageable volume levels.
Every note benefits from the Greenback speaker’s dynamic response, translating touch sensitivity and musical nuance with clarity and authority.
Custom Transformers and Cabinet Resonance
A hand-wound output transformer recreates the original midrange growl and harmonic complexity that define the classic AC30 sound. The birch ply cabinet construction delivers authentic resonance and projection, enhancing both stage presence and tonal depth.
The cabinet design complements the Greenback speakers with slightly looser lows and softer highs, resulting in a tone that feels bold, warm, and easy to drive.
Two Channels with Classic Versatility
- Normal Channel: Warm, thick tones with a Bright switch for added clarity.
- Top Boost Channel: Signature VOX chime and drive with slightly tamed highs for increased control.
A dedicated BOOST function increases gain and adds a rich midrange push that enhances sustain and harmonic content. Whether clean or cranked, the amplifier remains expressive and harmonically complex.
Refined Spring Reverb
The onboard spring reverb is powered by its own dedicated tube circuit with a separate output transformer to ensure proper impedance. The result is a lush, present reverb that blends smoothly with your tone.
Reverb controls allow precise shaping, and the circuit can be footswitched for easy bypass during performance.
FX Loop That Does Not Color Your Sound
The FET-buffered effects loop is designed for transparency, preserving your core tone while integrating delay, reverb, and modulation pedals cleanly, even when the amplifier is pushed.
When not in use, the loop can be fully bypassed to maintain a direct signal path.
Built for the Stage
Powered by EL84 tubes and delivering classic British tube power, the AC30 Hand-Wired Greenback is suited for both studio work and stage performance. Rear-panel outputs allow connection to extension cabinets or attenuators for additional flexibility.
The Greenback speakers reach their sweet spot earlier, making this amplifier responsive and controllable across a wide range of playing environments.
Timeless Craftsmanship and Style
From its iconic diamond grille cloth to the hand-wired internal construction, the AC30 Hand-Wired Greenback reflects VOX commitment to craftsmanship. Every detail supports reliability, tone consistency, and visual identity that fits seamlessly into any professional rig.
