You are welcome to ask any questions about the items for sale on my sales page, I will try to answer as soon as I can. Please understand that I can not take the time anymore to answer questions like "Do you think Mexican Fenders are better than Korean Epiphones" or "What's your favourite stompbox under $ 100?" and other general gear-questions. I understand that the casual and informal way of internet communication is inviting to ask anything you ever wanted to know about guitars.

Allgemeine Fragen zu Gitarren und Amps:
Inzwischen habe ich über 5000 Gitarrenvideos erstellt, und die Leute denken natürlich nicht ganz zu Unrecht: "Der kann mir sicher ein paar gute Tipps geben", oder immer beliebter: Fragen beantworten, zu einer Gitarre, die gerade günstig bei Ebay ersteigert wurde und etwas merkwürdig aussieht... Das Problem ist allerdings, dass ich inzwischen jeden Tag an die 150 derartige Mails mit allgemeinen Fragen aus der ganzen Welt bekomme... ("welche Epiphone kannst Du empfehlen..., "...was ist der Unterschied zwischen einer Custom-Shop-Les-Paul und einer normalen...", "..welche Strat-Pickups soll ich in meine Road-Worn einbauen", "..was ist der Unterschied zwischen einer Vintage-Fender/Gibson und einer Reissue ..".
Ich habe jetzt eine ganze Zeit jeden Tag solche Mails beantwortet - und im Einzelfall wäre dies auch kein Problem. Aber, sorry, in diesem Umfang geht das leider nicht mehr! Nehmt es also bitte nicht persönlich wenn ich solche allgemeinen Fragen ab jetzt deshalb grundsätzlich nicht beantworte! Ebenso wenig Fragen nach Backing-Tracks, Aufnahme-Equipment, Plektren, Saiten.. - vieles steht bereits in den "FAQ" Seiten
Spezielle Fragen zum Equipment in meinem Shop beantworte ich natürlich weiterhin gerne. Bei umfassenden Fragen/Beratungen lieber auch telefonisch als per Mail. Und ich bekomme so auch einen viel besseren Eindruck über die Wünsche und Vorstellungen des Kunden weil man direkt auch gezielt nachfragen-, Empfehlungen geben kann etc. . Am WE oder abends anrufen ist auch kein Problem.
Great demo! Also goes to show that tone isn't in the fingers - it comes from the teddy bear holding up the mic!
Played one of these at GC with an EVH superstrat. This amp blew me away! Now that's what you call T-O-N-E! Crank the gain and this thing Rocks! Best amp I ever played!
I went into a local music store a few months back and plugged into the new little Vox amp that I'd never seen before. It blew my AC15 Hand Wired out of the water. Looked at the price tag - wow!!! I left with a new amp. Fast forward half a year... I've sold my AC15HW, sold my Vibrolux RI, sold my 5e3 Deluxe. I'm now down to this cheap little AC10 and my JTM45. Honestly the AC10 sees above 90% of playing time.
Initially I experimented with different speakers. Greenback, Creamback, coupla Jensens. The stock speaker was lifeless and britrle at first, but I figured I'd toss it back in and let it break in properly. One day it just clicked, and I'm convinced that it's the best speaker for this amp. There's something to be said about a speaker designed for a specific amp. The Greenback was too flubby, the Jensens were too brittle, the Creamback was just too much. After break-in the stock speaker warmed up a tonne, but at the same time is much more articulate. I'll run the amp into my 2×10 cab (Heritage Greenback and a Jensen P10Q) for extra volume when needed, but Im a little embarassed to say that I like the sound coming from the stock 10" better. I beg of you tone junkies; please give this little speaker a few months playing time, you will not regret it! The highs become much tamer (I can actually use the teble knob and not just have it at 0), and the whole thing just opens right up.
Paul You'll love it.
I had the same experience with my Fender Champion 20 amp. It twas just ok for many months but then one day when I turned it on it was a completely different sounding amp. The speaker had finally broken in. It was a very noticeable change in the tone and volume.
wallis222 i did do all that as well and also threw a g10 vintage in there as well, but the eminence rf10c takes the cake easy, plus its 100.4db and can now keep up in a loud band setting
this can happen.. thats life.. full of surprises..
I have a new one, played it for a few hours so far with my Tele. Very bright, but getting better (I may just be getting better with finding good tones). My favourite setting at the moment for house volume is bass and treble off completely, gain 12 o'clock, master 9 o'clock. Awesome.
That’s a nice demo, and great playing through a wonderful Strat. I just bought this amp about a month ago, and I just can’t get over how fun and toneful it is.
Where do I get one of those bear mic stands??
;)
This amp was made for the Strat..... I run my 57’ and 59’ reissues and they both have a Stellar tone with it. The Vox AC10C1VS has even a better speaker on it. Vox did a great job bringing back this amp, it has everything you need and is not heavy to carry on. I gig with mine every weekend in church, SM57 in front of the speaker, run it clean with a Morning Glory and couple delays In the input. It’s the best tone I have in my 35 years of playing guitar 🎸
This is the demo that made up my mind to buy this amp. Beautifully done, thank you :)
Played through a couple of these a few weeks ago with a friend of mine, and holy smokes I'm totally blown away with how these things sound. Couldn't get a bad sound out of it. Definitely getting one of these once I sell some of my unused stuff.
This demo has me seriously thinking of getting this amp
chumpy go for it!!
I bought two. Splitting the signal with a multi effects pedal and playing in stereo. Bought a Brian May signature gold top and am looking into a treble boost. For now the multi pedal is doing fine. These are all tube amps and The Vox chime is there. there is also a surprisingly good amount of bass for 10 inch speakers. More bass I think personally than the AC15 that I tried out. The. Digital reverb is good in one amp and it comes and goes in the other, but I use the multi pedal anyway so, meh. These things are loud for the 11 by 12 room that I practice in, but I wouldn’t trade them. Really great tone. Right up there with my Fender twin but with “chime”.
Do it! I took one in on a trade and it's incredible. It's 100% VOX, but stripped down a bit and super easy to use.
I got a original ac10 jmi 1964 /65 hard to get hold of one but they are out there £££ do cost though but what a sound
Love that mic stand! Seriously, great demo and great playing.
Picked up a used 2019 this week...nice addition. Love the tight and strong low end the 10 inch gives...and the unique vox tone of course.
Greg must get the feeling of Christmas morning every morning walking into that living room and seeing all those fine axes on the sofa!!!
Guys. The AC10 somehow just has that "something." I'm the type who likes my amps the bigger the better (ac30's, twin reverbs, etc.) but I was blown at how much better the AC10 was compared to both of its bigger brothers. I will be getting one to run through my vintage silvertone 2x12 cab. For now, my AC4TV head makes do.
Beautiful sounds coming from this holy duo.
Such a BEAUTIFUL sounding video....I've listened several times in a row....dang!
I got that vox myself. Best gear purchase ever. Nice playing!
I have this amp and really enjoy it. There are only 2 things that need to be remembered, this amp needs about 20 hour of play in time when fresh out of the box, and it requires about 2 hours warm-up before it starts to sing.
2 hours to warm up, like I know some take 20/30 mins, but why so long?
20 hours!? Sorry. Something is wrong with your AC10. Consider a tube replacement.
Love your mic stand
This amp is a total winner. I just got the limited tan edition and love it!
How about at bedroom sound levels? I currently use a Pathfinder 15R and it's time to move to tubes!
Is the the ac10 c1 Non hand-wired?
this is my favorite VOX AC amp. I have AC4, and AC15, too, but I like my AC10 most of all.
In my AC4, the stock Chinese tubes sound awesome. In my AC10 - they rattle like hell! Making it awful! I have to replace them at some point or put those anti rattle rings on them. Seems like everyone complains about the stock tubes in the AC10. I have not heard many complaints though about the AC4 stock tubes
I came back again cause 1. Love the sound he's getting from this Vox and 2. Had to see if the stuffed animal was still holding the amplifier microphone, ( it was )!
I have play Marshall and Vox and easily can say Vox amps are the richest on tone versatility and presence
A lovely piece of British musical instruments the ac10 was the best
This Demo has me thinking about a Wall of AC-10'S!!!
Yeah Baby!!!
Going out to get on of those amps for 290 euros used. I love it!
Yeah, now that's how you should mic an amp.
I'm glad. Now I just need to borrow a teddy bear. Great sound, sweet playing...thanks
3:30 Now that's the way a Stratocaster should sound
He is little or the chair is enormous?
Lmfao 😂
killer tone!!
beary good sound ;-)
Only wish you could have shown each setting change
It sounds amazing!
Joao Pedro,
Thank you very much, i think i go for it...
Robert B. Thom.
Just picked up a used one, wanted one for awhile though not typically a Vox guy. I’m selling my Blues Jr. 4 which is a great amp also. For low volume gain this has a bit more compression and more bottom end than the Jr. don’t know the differences at higher volume. It’s a bit wider but shorter and less deep than the Jr, I like the smaller footprint. Really nice amp from clean through high gain.
Hi Greg, is it possible for you to explain which were the gain, volume, treble, bass settings for this video? Thanks
Yes elvis says i wanna be jour Teddy bear. Nice Sound. Bless.
Great Playing and Sounds!!!
Luv that amp, got one too. Thank you!
Sounds great!
Best part is the teddy bear mic stand. Probably making that tone sound so Jazzy! :)
Really Great & Wonderful Awesome Playing Here By You, Greg!! I Loved That Strat!! Big Huge Thumbs Up!! Blues On, My Best Talented Friend & Blues Bro!!

That poor teddy bear! Thanks for the great demo.
Nice Mic holder! Sweet! Rock` On! From Sioux City,Iowa.
Great! I´m woundering to buy two of this amp(stereo effects) rather than one ac30. Your playing and tone is fabulous as always.
I'm looking to get a Vox Ac10c1, are they worth it????
+James Adams I researched for a light weight tube amp under or about $500. Stumbled on to this one. I've had Blues Jrs for years. Bit more and heavier. Ive had the Fender Pro Jr 15 watts. You could never ever play out with it. It turns to mudd very quickly. A guy offered me a brand new one for $200 and I passed. Check out the Sweetwater review on this amp. He maxes the amp out a bit more. For me playing just trio, I like it a lot.
Did you get that amp? (Ac10c1). I have one. It’s a great amp. Cheers
such a monster player. love it.
This amps blows my ac30hw away I can't believe it's made in China ?
Vietnam!
Thanks for demo ,I think, I'm gone sell my blues jr and get one of these .All my playing is home + 5-10 watt amps are perfect ,15 just always feel to me like I'm holding back it's tone at house volumes.
jeffrey biscoe I feel you, did u end up buying the amp?
Awesome soud and playing !!!
Does it take effects well even though it has no effects loop? You just have to put our pedalboard between the guitar and amp's input? I'm curious how this will sound vs an amp with an effects loop.
Do you use the amp as a clean platform?
how was this recorded?is there any pre or post production.?or just the amp by it self?
live recording - just the amp. no post prod.
This or the AC15c1? I play for church and have the ability to mic the amp and prefer the tone of the AC15 better more in general but I'm afraid I won't be able to get the AC15 loud enough on stage for it to shine. Thoughts anyone?
Go for this if you want that nice tube break up. I play at church to with a hot rod deluxe with a nice assortment of pedals. Can't get that over 3 on the volume without complaints. Thinking about getting this one for a stereo rig. Always dirty with this amp and clean/modulated with the hot rod.
mrbigg7255 I ended up getting one yesterday, absolutely love it
Sweet! I'm going to have to get one too. I want Ehx's Synth9 pedal too. I think I'll get the amp first though. I use the C9 on a couple of songs a week and could use the Synth9 too.
mrbigg7255 yeah I'm digging the tone, super punchy, it's got a ton more bass than RUclips videos show through.
I picked up my ac10 2wks ago on a trade. For an amp this size I was blown away. For my ears at top volumes it was clean and clear. When I brought the dirt up it was clean and dirty. Sounds like an oxymoron but this amp is great. I know tastes change from player to player but with pedals and the lick of your fingers you can get any tone you want out of this amp. My only con is, you can hear tube rattle with the stock tubes. I'm going to change tubes soon. Blessings!
that amp has a closed back. one small slot at bottom one small one on top. in hot weather the inside gets warm. If that bottom vent gets blocked, it can get hot...not good
Love it brother ⚡
Love the vox
Not being sarcastic, love the teddy bear rig.
Great demo!
You don't usually do amps here, so I assume you really liked this one...>? Seven years later now, and I've got a royal blue AC-10C1 coming today - can't wait to play it, never had a Vox before................!
the amp has a special sound - very nice
Is the stock speaker worth keeping? I don't want it to break up so quickly.
I played it and it seems to get pretty loud with a surprising amount of clean headroom before I got asked to turn it down. It has a gain knob so you can add dirt as you desire. Really cool amp, I was looking to have a back up for my blues jr I gig with and honestly the vox is much warmer sounding.
that strat is a throaty devil!!!
+stratmagic and the AC10 makes it even better
Does it run pedals? like reverb hall of fame, flasback delay, big muff? and... can i gig with it? thank you.
tegos jimenez it does run pedals, and you can Gig with it so long as you are mic'd up. By itself the AC10 is loud, but I don't know if it's that loud. I put a Celestion Greenback G10 in mine as well as some JJ EL84s to pick up on some volume/reduce some bottom end flab. I'd hightly recommend it.
How it sounds with a Gibson Les Paul?
t.jim.o pretty great. Does nice bright classic rock tones at higher gain settings
great playing! make sure the teddy bear gets paid
anybody knows what blues riff is at 0:50 ? thanks :)
Nice job controlling that strat bridge pickup. Whenever playing one i have to go into second position, since the bridge is too bright for me
What's the difference between this amp and the ac10c1?
Aaron Leopold this is the ac10c1
The differences is a c and a 1
Beautiful playing dude.
Vox > fender
Dalton Heitmann British > American amps every day
I personally think Vox is the perfect balance between a Fender (too trebly) and a Marshall (muddy and fat).
Sounds great but how reliable are they?? I've seen inside one
Doss this vox, and other larger ones have a Gain control? I thought voxes had only a clean channel, the ones I've played (except the amp modeling) have only had clean. All I'm hearing on lots of videos is crunch and distortion.
Can someonec clean this up for me please? 😛
Pretty much all modern Vox amps have master volume controls which allows you to get preamp breakup without it being incredibly loud.
I got a Vox handwired tube amp and a Strat and a Telly.
Sounds great man!
Which do you prefer and why....the AC10 or the AC15?
Blake Wright AC10 has better bottom end and is warmer IMO
hi thinking of getting this amp what do you think
What settings are you at in this video?!!!
Hell yes.
The Teddy..is very cool :-) !!!!!!!!!!!!
What mic are you using?
Great sounds, what were your settings for the last 2 minutes (3:05 till end). Bought this amp as soon as came out and changed speaker to g10 greenback that took from my AC4 that i had for a few years. I upgraded tubes to jj 12at7, 12ax7 and sovtek el84's. Stays cleaner a little longer and sounds much better than stock. Now if I could only play like this guy. To think I wasted.money on cab grabber microphone holder when I could just steal one of my kids teddy bears
You dialed in a nice tone around 2:20
does this strat have the fat 50s?
is that the green version ?
cause i have this amp and even change tubes for JJ and tung-son and i still don't get this sound out of it.
Is that a Mallory, Mullard or Alnico Blue Teddy Bear? ;-)
i saw your video with the brian may red special guitar! try to play that guitar with this amp (with a treble booster), it'll sound amazing!
Who’s filming if Teddy holds the mic?? Great tones!!
Has you ever had problems with fleas outta the stuffed bear ?
nice!!!!
Nice tone bear bud
Steve ray vaughn forever .
Una delicia.
I bought this amp telling my girlfriend it was only small and looked cool so I could keep it in the living room as a practice amp....'how loud can it be..'
Marc Piechowicz hah is it still in the living room?
jake schleifer yeah , but I have certain restrictions let's say! 😀
Ehi! I’m looking for a bedroom amp.. is it really too loud?
@A M I had AC4C12 in my bedroom. Able to play only when no one home.
Impascetic FinalP I will second that, I have the 10” version and I can only play when nobody is home, which is the same speaker the ac10 has. Absolutely no crunch at all at the levels I play with when other people are around, maybe the AC4tv with that wattage reduction switch is the answer? I am starting to believe there is no such thing as a bedroom amp
That's one expensive guitar but worth every euro! Do you take this out on stage Greg?
yes, of course
Nice '57 Greg....
Marshall and les paul....vox and a strat....its just the way it should be...
I had a Vox and it got stolen somehow now I'm stuck with a fender
Nevermind, just bought an ac10 lol
Fuck, yes.
Almost better than Ac15c1 ✌🏻
I have the amp. Now all I need is that teddy bear to replicate that tone!
Love your cd collection screw mp3 and all that other shit BUY THE MUSIC PEOPLE..
are your fingers that oily/ dirty ?
Jay Valentine it IS a 57
That guitar was made in 1957 and has probably seen many gigs, and changed artists hands for 60 years. It's a sign that the guitar had a proper history. So you can excuse it from the occasional wear and tear on the fretboard.
Must get me a teddy bear !
Mic stand.....👌
