The Vox AC10C1 combo amp offers classic British tone in a portable 10-watt package that can go from iconic chiming clean tones all the way to full-blown dirt using the onboard gain control. An all-tube amplifier pushed through a custom Celestion speaker, the AC10C1 delivers the classic Vox Top Boost sound that's been favored by guitarists all over the world for more than 50 years.

Ten Watts of Pure Power

Back in the early 1960s, Vox released the AC10, an all-tube amplifier that delivered great tone at manageable volumes. The AC10C1 is an update of that amp, with a gain knob that can take you through a wide range of tones, and a master volume control that you can keep you quiet, even when you're running the gain hot and crunchy -- or you can crank it and play with your band at full tilt. The onboard EQ controls let you dial in your treble and bass to whatever suits your guitar and your mood, allowing you to contour the Top Boost sound however you like.

Size Matters: Smaller than the AC15, Bigger than the AC4

With the AC10C1, you get an amp that won't break your back or bank account, fitting in below the AC15, with its 15 watts of power, and the AC4, which is truly a practice amp. The AC10C1 is big enough for gigging -- and it has the tone to back it up -- but it is small enough that it is easily portable, coming in at just a little over 27 pounds. Pair that with the gain and EQ controls, as well as a beautiful onboard reverb, and you've got an all-tube, tone-packed amp that fits snugly… read more into almost any application, from the bedroom to the garage to the club.

Features:

- All-tube amplifier
- A custom Celestion speaker
- Fully customizable bass and treble controls
- Gain control, to take you from crystal clean to raw dirt and anywhere in between
- Onboard digital reverb

Whether you're a bedroom noodler or a gigging musician tired of lugging a 50+ pound amp around, the AC10C1 is a versatile little beast capable of going from the classic Vox chime that players have been obsessing over since the '60s to thick dirt when you crank the gain.
