VOX AC-10 Twin

Dating from around 1963, this is a great studio amp: all the balls and vibe of an AC-30 without the hearing damage: it sounds lovely. The tremolo is really good, the footswitch is original – the handle is a later replacement, as is the logo – however it is original where it counts and is a joy to play through. The brass vents were missing but replacements have been fitted (the best, from North Coast Music in the USA). There’s a bag of original components removed during the service which can be included if the buyer requests it.

The UK plug will be removed before shipping abroad unless otherwise requested.

Extra Technical Info:

Tested at 16 watts output so probably manufactured with an AC15 transformer (Albions both look to be original to amp). Pots dated Jun/Oct ’63.

All main components are original to amp. Handle, logo and vents are later replacements – footswitch is period-correct Vox ‘egg’ footswitch taken from another amp. Original blue speakers have just been reconed by Wembley Loudpseakers. Mullards are all present, though showing their age. Usual scuffs/marks to tolex edges have been touched up – presents well. Has had a different handle fitted at some point in the past. Great players’ vintage amp.

We have described this amp as accurately as possible, and welcome any observations concerning it’s history/originality.

We are always interested in buying old valve amps.
