Class A-15
Here’s another Vox-inspired Amp Model. This model is based on Channel 1 of a
wonderful 1960 AC 15. The sound is similar to the Vox AC 30 that was studied for
Vetta, but this is a smaller amp (one, instead of two, 12-inch speakers) 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 the B
ASS and MIDDLE in neutral (12 o’clock, or halfway up),
P
RESENCE to 0, and play with the TREBLE control to get yourself some of those classic
British invasion sounds.
To model this, we plugged into Input 2, which is slightly darker than Input 1, and gives
you more of that classic warm sound that the AC 15 is famous for.
