Description
A vintage 1965 Vox AC50 50W tube amp head. The high-powered successor to the venerable AC30, the AC50 features similar "top boost" style tone controls and tons of clean headroom. Just serviced, this amp is super loud and plays well with an assortment of pedals. This AC50 has been equipped and biased with a pair of original (not reissue) Amperex-branded Mullard EL34 power tubes, worth several hundred dollars on their own. Though not in collector-grade condition, this head will make a great buy for any serious player looking for a unique yet extremely playable vintage amp. It has been cleaned and serviced. It is fully functional and sounds fantastic. Includes custom XLR speaker cable.
