There is nothing wrong with that stock speaker though. Also, the high end is a bit sweeter sounding.
The Red Fang does compress a bit nicer than the neo dog. I also swapped out the speaker for a Red Fang 16ohm that I got in a trade, I was gonna sell, it but then this amp came along. Nothing earth shattering, but enough to where I felt it was worth it. I did swap out the preamp tubes for a pair of Mullards I had around and a Sovtek 12AX7LPS, that made a very nice difference.
I got my CC1 a month ago, and I have done about 15 or so gigs on it and 2 sessions. This new Vox is is right up there.Ĭlick to expand.I am with you all the way on that. I've had a number of AC-30s over the years and my last one, a really good fawn one is the only piece of gear I regret getting rid of. Most people's loss is our gain!!! This is a great amp. The AC30CC1 is a perfect amp and CHEAP!!! ESPECIALLY when tonally they really don't make much of a difference. If you're a doctor, dentist, or a computer guy who doesn't play gigs or doesn't even play with a drummer (that's the impression I get from a lot of these tone parties: a bunch of guitar players 'jamming') and you're flush with cash, burning a hole in your pocket that you have absolutely no problem wasting on unnecessary ego boosters.then mayvbe the blues are worthwhile.īut I feel that if it's not earning me more cash or bringing me new work then it's wasted money. It may matter to the nerds but when the producer (40 Million albums sold, 2 grammy nominations) put the fader up on the CC1, it sounded AWESOME!!!! I took the AC30CC1 to a session last night and it sounded GREAT!!! All of these extra things (blues, MODS, Not Point to Point) really don't matter all that much in the grand scheme of things. The Neo sounds just fine in it no need to go and blow extra money on the blues. Now I wish it was fawn and I do love the look of the 2x12 but I really don't miss the added weight.
