Vox AC15HWR1 Hand-Wired Greenback Guitar Amplifier
Few amplifiers have shaped music history like the VOX AC15. The AC15HWR1 Hand-Wired Greenback continues that legacy with meticulous hand-wired construction, a vintage-accurate circuit, and a Celestion Greenback speaker for punchy, mid-forward tone and earlier breakup. Ideal for players seeking classic VOX chime, richer mids, and dynamic tube responsiveness.
Classic Tube Tone with Modern Control
Powered by EL84 tubes, the AC15HWR1 offers 15 watts of British tube tone with natural “sag” response and expressive touch sensitivity. Hand-wound transformers, 12mm birch ply cabinet, and the Greenback speaker produce warm lows, throatier mids, and harmonically rich overdrive for both clean and cranked sounds.
Two Channels, One Legendary Voice
- Normal Channel: Warm, thick tones with a Bright switch for clarity.
- Top Boost Channel: Iconic VOX chime and drive, with tamed highs for greater control.
- BOOST Switch: Adds midrange growl and gain to push the Greenback speaker beautifully.
Lush Tube Spring Reverb
Built-in spring reverb is powered by its own tube circuit and transformer, producing rich, smooth reverb. Level and Tone controls plus footswitchable bypass make it versatile for live or studio use.
Transparent Effects Loop
FET-buffered FX loop preserves your core tone while integrating pedals cleanly, even under drive. It can also be fully bypassed for a direct signal path.
Stage-Ready Features:
- 15W EL84 tube power for studio or small to mid-size stages
