Feature:
The Master Volume Control makes this amp the only amp you'll ever need. Could not play my TBX Reissue in small venues but the HW is great with a Master Volume control.

Quality:
I've played it a lot and a few times with volume all the way up and it does as expected... sounds unbelievable!

Value:
Comparable with other FANTASTIC 30W Class A hand wired boutique amps.

Sound:
I have owned an AC30TBX but this Hand Wired Limited Edition sounds much better. Both with Blue Alnico's.

Ease of Use:
Mine is Head w/2x12 Cab. Head is extremely heavy but built like a tank.

Support:
No choice for N/A... never needed support so I guess that's The Best.

Style of Music: Sometimes great ! on other days , I get the Blues

Musical Experience: 30 year Nashville Guitar Player .

Location: Nashville , TN

Feature:
This amp is in it's own Vox World . Anything else would detract from what it is, "Vox Perfect" . I would not change anything . As a bonus though , Vox made the Cooltron boxs for those that want to push the preamp tubes into early or more distortion . I have some Cooltrons and they really Kick Butt !

Quality:
My AC30HW is made great , As for the Road , thats a place where people mis-pack their gear , that is if they pack it up at all , break it and whine about the manufacture.

Value:
It was very expensive . But I received the Amp set that is tonally correct for what I wanted. There was no tonal secound choice for that Vox Rock & Blues sound .

Desirability:
You have to play it to love it . If you find a better amp for Britsh Rock & Blues tones , Buy it .

Sound:
What else can I say but "Killer"!! I was very suprised To find that it has an awesome Blues Tone. I was looking for a warm ,rich , amp that has a great distortion sound. What I actually got is great tones in the clean side and wonderfull warm tones all the way up to the maximum of distortion.The Vox Celestion Blues are Bad to the Bone ! The match-up is total perfection .

Support:
Don't know yet. I hve not had any problems with it.

Overall:
This Amp is already out of production , so thats that ! I have not seen any for sale even on EBAY . I might try to find an AC30 / 6tb. I have 9 different tube Amps . They are all great in their own way . The Vox is just one of the many wonderfull tube amps out there . Each is different and unique .
