Class A-15 – based on a 1961 Vox AC-15

3 • 14

This model is based on a wonderful 1961 Vox AC-15. The sound is similar to the Vox AC-30 that was the inspiration for the Class A-30 model, but this is a smaller amp (only one 12-inch speaker instead of two) with a warmer, more “woody” sound.

Once again, the original amp had only a single tone control—a treble cut. We faithfully modeled that and then slipped in some post-Amp Model Bass and Mid contouring. Set Bass and Mid in neutral (which is 12 o’clock, or halfway up), Presence to 0, and play with the Treble control to get yourself some of those classic British invasion sounds.

The Cabinet Model is based on an AC-15 loaded with one 12-inch Celestion Bulldog.
