All this about Vox AC -30s...
I think it was '79 or '80 I was serving in the USAF in Hawaii; living in the "dorm"; I had a room mate (Eric) who just bought a used white Strat; I think it was the day he picked it up that we went to Harry's Music in Honolulu to pick up a Vox Cambridge he picked up at the swap meet that needed serviced.
Anyway we went back to the repair section and there sat this amp; a huge VOX with 2 12"s and it was looking BRAND new! It had a "round the world" power transformer in so you could plug in just about anywhere there was electricity; and the amp worked perfectly we were assurred. The repairman wanted $50.00 bucks for this amp and Eric had no amp of his own so I loaned Eric the money and we loaded it up and headed to some other guitar shop to see what was going on there thinking we bought this cool amp but nothing special.
We went inside to brag on the purchase and the guys inside ran out to the car and found "AC 30" on the data plate.
This amp had reverb and vibrato I think; it was a killer deal though for 50 bucks....maybe the model the beatles used?


Thats awesome!!! I think the Beatles used AC-30s in the very beggining but changed to AC-50s early on.
