Just wanted to say thank you for making this video. Really nice, tasteful playing with two very fine guitars, and it really captures how they sound in the room. And sealed my decision on picking up a C15.
The HC-30 sounds bigger and better in most categories, except you have to go much louder to get the crunch, and even there it seems a little less warm than the HC-15. I don't love master volumes, and don't see any realistic situation where I'd be able to crank the HC-30 to natural breakup tones and compression.
Thanks - the 30 watt has more authority and a bigger low end. However, the reason that I sold the C15 had nothing to do with that. I put a pedalboard solution together with Kingsley tube preamps and an OX Stomp. The C15 was a church rig that was made obsolete years ago the tubes plus OX Stomp technology. If I ever do a guitar gig again (not likely, been 20 years), I will use the big amp…

Both sound nice. What made you stick with the larger wattage version? Hard to tell over YT. Did the C15 sell btw?
