VOX AC4TV
VOX AC4TV Valve Combo Amp Tube Electric Guitar Amplifier Cream Heritage
Legendary VOX vintage tone preserved in the definitive compact tube amp.
AC4TV
Offering a unique take on the classic VOX AC4, the AC4TV is a remarkably flexible little tube amp that features a retro inspired aesthetic and three different output modes (4 watts, 1 watt, or ¼ watt), allowing you to achieve true VOX tone at volume levels suitable for any environment.
This up-to-date Class A version retains the distinctive EL84 power tube of the original and features a 12AX7 powered pre-amp, all driving a custom-made Celestion 10” speaker. The sophisticated sound is unmistakably VOX, delivering that distinctively British top-end tone.
COMPACT and STYLISH RETRO CHIC
Today’s AC4TV Series is already a modern classic. Borrowing the retro-chic “TV” front styling that first appeared on the classic 1958 AC15, the AC4TV punches well above its weight delivering that classic chimey harmonically rich Vox Tone in a compact, ear-friendly package. The vintage VOX look is still a big part of the current VOX Heritage Collection. Stylish, clean and classic, the AC4TV looks great anywhere your music takes you.
PURE BRITISH CLASS A TONE
Think of the AC4TV as the original AC4, reborn with the advantage of today’s technology. The AC4TV improves on the hardware of its vintage counterpart and the result is improved reliability and consistent tone from amp to amp.
This up-to-date Class A version retains the distinctive EL84 power valve (tube) of the original and features a 12AX7 powered pre-amp that delivers the pure British tone that’s loved by all. By adjusting the volume and tone settings, you can create a broad range of tones from a sweet, clean sound to that distinctive VOX overdrive sound.
CRANK IT UP and TURN IT DOWN!
In the past, the only way to obtain great-sounding distortion with a single volume control was to simply crank the volume. The AC4TV has an attenuator switch that allows the output power to be set at 4 Watts, 1 Watt or even 1/10th of a Watt.
This convenient and ear-saving feature allows the AC4TV mini to create a real, musically satisfying distortion even at the lowest power setting. Switching down to one watt cuts headroom dramatically, enabling you to achieve drive at lower levels. Down again to 0.25 watts takes that a step further, where you can max the volume and tone for a lovely compressed distortion that just seems to knit everything you’re playing together – like a 50-watt Marshall ‘Plexi’ or an AC30 does when they’re blowing your ears out. It’s a brilliantly conceived and superbly executed feature.
You’ll be able to enjoy playing to your heart’s content with your favorite tone late at night, in your dorm room wherever and whenever!
If you’ve got a quad box nearby, connect the AC4TV extension speaker jack and enjoy. Nobody will believe you when you tell them that it’s only four watts!
Extremely portable, the AC4TV is also ideal for recording, jamming with friends, rehearsals and more.
If price and portability are your bag then this is your amp. And do make sure you plug into a 4 x 12 just for fun – Practice with it, record with it, or just look at it all day long – what an awesome little amp!
