For sale is my prized Vox amp, the hand wired H2L. Some info:To commemorate the 50th Anniversary of VOX guitar amplifiers in 2007, Vox first introduced the AC15H1TV, and later the same year, the AC30H2. As the ultimate collectible AC-30, Vox issued the AC30H2 in a mahogany enclosure. The amp used a EF86 preamp tube, the same valve used in Vox amps manufactured in the late 50s and early 60s. This tube had nearly become extinct until Electro Harmonix reissued it. This is one of the finest VOX amplifiers in the 50 year history of Vox.What is it that makes EF86 based VOX amplifiers sound so good? Maybe it’s the way the amp naturally overdrives. Or maybe it’s the raw power of the creamy distortion as you crank the amp all the way up. Whatever it is, there is an undeniable magic about this period of VOX amplification. The EF86 Pentode tube is at the heart of this elusive tone, and for many years, the EF86 tube was not available in production quantities. Fifty years later, the magic returns.The 30-watt AC30H2L mahogany hand wired amp features two channels of VOX tone through a pair of 12" Celestion Alnico “Blue” speakers. The tube complement is made up of 1 x EF86, 3 x ECC83/12AX7, 4 x EL84, and 1 x GZ34 (rectifier).This amp was limited to 500 units worldwide, and they are hard to find in this kind of condition. Shipping to continental USA only. Ships in flight case. Feel free to ask any questions. I have an impeccable record as a seller and buyer. I hate to part with her, but she's not getting played like she deserves. It cost $150 to ship when I bought her due to size and weight so please understand this prior to purchase. This amp will be professionally packed. Amp works perfectly, however sold as is due to the nature of used gear.
