Up for sale, a 2016 Vox AC15 Hand-Wired edition model AC15HW1, brand new and in mint condition. This amp was acquired new directly from a Vox dealer and comes complete with the original cover, footswitch, manual and power cable.In Vox's history, there may never have been a series of amps boasting such a lofty and pure sound as the new Hand-Wired Series amps, which includes the AC15HW1 15 watt combo. The Vox Hand-Wired Series relies on the painstaking technique of turret board hand-wiring, a method requiring a high level of skill and craftsmanship. The result is wiring that's beautiful in its artistry and ensures an efficient signal path with minimal loss and no restriction in amplitude. In the AC15HW1, tubes, transformers, speakers, chassis, and custom parts all join together in an ideal state to deliver the richest and most powerful sonic experience - the ultimate Vox amp. Not bound by tradition, the Vox Hand-Wired Series also provides a variety of new functions that keep pace with the needs of today's artists. The result of the exacting craftsmanship of this AC15 is an amp that responds to the subtle nuances of the guitarist's touch. The natural character of the vacuum tubes are passed with perfect transparency to the 12" Celestion G12M speaker, noted for its broad midrange attack and restrained top end, providing a punchy attitude when chording, and a searing lead tone when driven hard.The AC15HW1 is a true all-tube amplifier, employing vacuum tubes in the preamp, power amp, and rectifier. The preamp uses three classic ECC83/12AX7 tubes, while the power stage uses a duet of EL84s, along with a EZ81 rectifier tube. Combined, these three elements provide the vibrant, organic, and unmistakable tone that is the heart of the classic VOX sound.The Vox Hand-Wired AC15HW1 amp preserves the traditional Vox two-channel design, providing a Top Boost channel and a Normal channel. True to form, the Top Boost channel delivers the legendary AC30 sound with a fully interactive tone stack. Vox has also added a new and unique Hot/Cool switch. The Cool setting produces the orthodox Top Boost sound, while the Hot setting bypasses the tone circuitry altogether to create a more pure sound to achieve richer gain. A VFS1 footswitch is included with this Vox Hand-Wired Series amp, so you can quickly change between Cool and Hot, right at those moments when you need an extra dose of drive. The controls for the Normal channel consist simply of a volume knob, giving you a cleaner and more natural tube sound. In addition, this channel offers a Bright switch that adds emphasis to the upper harmonics of the tone when engaged.Additional features include a Master Volume and an Output Power (OP) mode switch which lets you change the power amp's output level, delivering more detailed control over the gain/volume relationship, in turn providing more control over your sound. A MV/Bypass switch is also included, which completely bypasses the Master Volume section. This means that the legendary sound that has fascinated guitarists for more than 50 years can be faithfully reproduced, giving you a direct and pure high-gain tone.Features:15W12" Celestion G12M Greenback speakerHand-wired turret board constructionBirch-ply cabinet featuring solid bracing and a natural high frequency diffuserAll-tube design3 ECC83/12AX7 preamp tubesDual EL84 power tubesEZ81 rectifierFitted with matched Ruby Tubes that provide extended dynamic rangeTraditional VOX two-channel design: Top Boost and NormalHigh and Low inputs for each channelThe Normal channel provides an additional Bright switchThe top boost channel provides a Hot/Cool switch to achieve even more gainMaster Volume/Bypass switch completely bypasses the Master Volume sectionOP mode switch cut the amp's output power level in halfVintage fawn-colored vinyl, reminiscent of the 1960 classic AC30Included VFS1 footswitch controls the Top Boost channel's Hot/Cool switchPlease check out our shop "Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar" on the web, and feel free to call us directly with any questions at 206.399.8518.
