Powered by four EL84 power tubes and three 12AX7 preamp tubes, the AC30 Custom pumps out 30 watts of rich, touch-sensitive all-tube power through two 12-inch Celestion G12M Greenback speakers.

As one of the most iconic amplifiers in music history, the AC30 Custom delivers an unmistakable chime, rich harmonic complexity, and dynamic touch sensitivity that has made it the weapon of choice for world-class artists across generations.
Dual-Channel Versatility
The AC30 Custom features two independent channels—Normal and Top Boost—each equipped with its own High and Low inputs:
- Normal Channel: Provides a pure, ultra-transparent signal path that lets the true character of your guitar and playing style shine through.
- Top Boost Channel: Driven by interactive Treble and Bass tone controls, this channel delivers the signature VOX mid-forward crunch and legendary top-end chime.
Onboard Classic Effects
Shape your sound further using the AC30's built-in analog-style effects:
- Spring Reverb: Features a dedicated Reverb Level and Reverb Tone control to add spacious depth, from subtle warmth to ambient wash.
- Tremolo: A classic tremolo circuit featuring adjustable Speed and Depth controls to add pulsing motion and vintage swampy vibe to your tone.
- Tone Cut: A global power-amp control that rolls off high frequencies across both channels for smoother, warmer overdrive characteristics.
