| Very Good condition, 7,5/10, Made in China, |
| missing one input jack (high normal), effect loop, |
| 2pc Celestion speakers, from Voxshowroom.com: The |
| AC30C2 replaced the AC30CC2 in January 2010. The |
| AC-30C2 is produced by Vox in China and offered a |
| number of significant changes from the |
| AC-30CC2.The AC-30C2 is a true two channel amp. |
| Each channel has two inputs. The first channel |
| incorporates the preamp circuitry from the |
| original AC-30 Normal amp while the second |
| channel featured the Vox AC-30 Top Boost |
| circuit. Three ECC83 tubes power the preamp.Line |
| out and effects loop jacks were mounted in the |
| upper rear panel.The AC30C2 also has tremolo and a |
| spring based reverb.The GZ34 rectifier tube was |
| dropped from the AC30C2 amp in favor of diode |
| rectification. This was the first time since the |
| early 1990 s that the AC-30 did not have a GZ-34 |
| tube rectifier.The change away from tube |
| rectification in the AC30C2 offended some Vox |
| purists. Many feel that the audio compression from |
| tube rectifier induced voltage sag is a central |
| ingredient in AC-30 tone. However, the diminishing |
| quality of GZ-34 rectifier tubes in recent years |
| has become a real problem. The first tube to fail |
| in an AC-30 amp is typically the GZ-34 rectifier |
| tube. When it fails, it will blow the main fuse |
| and shut the amp down. Eliminatiing the rectfier |
| tube makes the amp more dependable.The AC30C2 |
| cabinet is completely constructed of MDF (medium |
| density fiber board, or particle board). The |
| AC30CC2, along with its predecessor, the AC-30TB , |
| had 13 ply baltic birch plywood enclosures. |
| Surprisingly, the AC-30C2 amp is only two pounds |
| heavier than the AC30CC2.Tube replacement no |
| longers requires that the amp chassis be removed |
| from the cabinet. Removing the upper rear back |
| panel exposes three ECC83 and four EL-84 tubes for |
| easy exchange (see photo at left).Two 12 |
| Celestion Greenback speakers are mounted in the |
| open backed enclosure. Jacks for extension |
| speakers, along with an impedance selector switch, |
| are mounted on the upper back panel. Model AC30C2 |
