The VOX AC30S1! - Andertons Music Co. 

I love how Lee’s playing is evolving over the years. Its such a pleasure to watch him breaking away from his usual licks and growing as a musician. Its inspiring really.

I'm a simple man. I see that purple Tele, I hit that like button because I know there's some beautiful sounds about to be made.

I like that Pete looks genuinely pleased when whomever he's jamming with does something cool.

You can clearly see how inspired Lee's playing gets when hes jamming with Pete instead of Rob. (i like Rob)

The Captain is improving all the time, really good to watch.

Looks like Justin's school of soloing is coming along nicely, Lee. You sound good, man!

Nice and classic, Pete's tele is probably the best sounding guitar ever to be crafted in history

Anyone else thinks Lee's playing on the intro jam was his best ever? Those lessons with Justin are really paying off, big time!

12:22 - thats is the nicest chord progression I have heard in a while. This video in general has such nice playing in it from both Lee and Pete. Thanks for sharing, guys!

The fruits of Lee's labour showing in the jam - loving it!

I have NEVER watched a video of Pete and The Captain without picking up my guitar right after. Such amazing tone/playing. I cant wait to visit the store next year.

Vox for life.

I love how Danish Pete just seems so eager to play. It inspires me to try getting better at improvising on guitar.

Teles and Voxes together are magic.

I would honestly pay $20 for an album with all your intro jams on it.

That jam at the start was absolutely mind boggling

Man, that strat sings. And lovely playing by both. The best I've heard Lee play. Well done sir.

Pete you are a truly great guitarist.

That clean sounds beutifully good.. nice...

Lee, wow you sound so confident and flowing now! It’s amazing the difference in your playing man’ hats off to you. Keep up the great practice! 🎵👌🏻

That’s the best I’ve ever heard Lee play! The lessons seem to be paying off!

That run to you impromptu was so unbelievably perfect. 😍

I've had the AC30S1 for a few months now and I don't see myself owning another amp for the rest of my life. Sure, I might have to replace some stuff in it, but it works great with my pedals and sound amazing clean. Can't wait to bust it out at gigs once those exist again.

Aw Lee!!!!!!!!!! Sounding Stellar!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s so cool to hear you getting so much better! I love your feel and your musical ideas - this stuff with Justin I think has really helped you manifest them. Keep it up man - you’re bloody great

i know how how heavy they were i had to carry mine up 1 flight of stairs after playing at gigs in 1962 it had 2 handles my back was strong i was 19 but the sound from the amp was perfect thank you VOX!!!

Always enjoy Pete's playing..

Great demo, the Captain has been practicing getting out of that pentatonic, his soloing was interesting and very musical ! Yay Justin, good job and good job Lee ! Oh and guys, please use that Paloma more, I love it ! ;)

The intro was a fantastic bit of soulful, heartfelt playing by Pete and the Captain! NIce new VOX amplifiers to play through and inspire as well.

Pete is such a wonderfully expressive player and his phrasing is excellent. Always a joy when he is in an amp demo.

More Pete and Lee reviews :)

Pete is magic !

you just cant stop loving Pete more!

Omg Pete, please do more tutorial videos about your loops and how to play over them. This was amazing

Hard to believe, but the playing of both keeps getting even better - well done! Great review - thank you!

So much goodness going on. The amps, the playing, all four guitars but especially the Les Paul and Tele...Cap getting dynamic... and that LP on the neck pickup ✊Pete for President

That purple Tele give me chills every single time!

Yes, Captain. Yes, yes, yes! Lovely playing.

The Captain's Les Paul is just sooooo nice sounding.

DOOD, Pete's playing in this is FANTASTIC

Way to sell a Vox product: keep Rob out of the room. Lol.

The Captain is killing it.Sounds great. Love Petes sound and of course the Purple Tele.

Great review and inspiration to consider this amp and ultimately buy it! I traded in my AC15C1 for the AC30S1 in Cream tolex with the Creamback speaker. This amp has become my main "go to" gigging and playing amp. Beyond being a beautiful looking and sounding amp, the S1 Cream has loads of clean headroom, is super easy to dial in the signature Vox tone, does not sound thin at lower levels ( (for me the 30C2 had to get up past 2 or 3 to sound good), is pedal friendly and weighs not much more than the 15C1. As I loved the 15C1, a few drummers I have played with through the years challenged the ability for 15 for to stay clean ( I play clean on the edge of break up and use pedals for overdrive or hand volume roll off with slightly more gain)... I can't stop playing this amp, this amp inspires me to play so much and I am receiving outstanding positive comments on my tone from fellow musicians...:). Although the Ac30C2 has an excellent full sound and bottom end, unfortunately it was often was to loud for most rooms, really can introduce a stage volume that is hard to manage and at 75lbs, is a bit heavy! The Ac30S1 seems to have the best of both worlds.. After playing numerous shows in the last 5 years, and a recent user of an excellent amp modeler for the last year and a half that sounds great and is efficient, I am happy to be a primary Vox user once again! Vox provides me an opportunity to develop an individual signature tone when playing guitar.. Lastly from my personally experience, being prior 15C1 and 30C2 owner, I don't miss the lack of tone cut, extra inputs, tremolo and "normal channel". My pedal board can provide extra effects as needed. For folks concerned about the lack of a "normal" sounding channel, I have found it can be dialed in with eq on the amp... For me, being that I used the TB channel more often than not, this amp really works for me. The built in reverb is outstanding in this amp also and its great that I can leave the pedalboard home if I want and obtain excellent tones.. KUDOS to Vox for designing an amp that fits perfectly between the 15C1 and 30C2 with functional needs and thanks soo much Pete and Lee for helping me obtain the right tone, amp and fit for my needs:).!

What a beautiful sounding amp. I'm slowly but surely becoming a major VOX aficionado.

Tasty tones from the Captain, Godlike majesty from Danish!

I love how Lee messes up a bit at 3:42 and recovers so perfectly. A lot of players would have really been thrown off for a second.

Double denim is and always will be cool. Pete is the man. His playing is top drawer. And captain you’re getting better every day😎

I’m a huge fan of Spanish Pete and the Admiral! The ac30s1 sounds amazing by the way.

Lee’s chops are getting better and better.

Look at Lee adding in all those major scale notes! Great progress man!

Best i've ever seen lee play - well in!

I have the AC10 and get compliments on that tone. This is making me want this AC30 for gigs.

Lee, u is getting betterer and betterer.

A lot of people turn the master on the AC15 up all the way and use the preamp volume to set your overall volume. You end up pusing the power tubes instead of the preamp.

I always find it endearing seeing how much joy you guys get out of playing Bryan Adams tunes. Even Chappers gets that boyish excitement going when he plays "It's Only Love". haha

Lee's ear for solos has really come on. Really enjoying his bits

Love demos with Pete like this! He's brilliant!

I think this amp sounds beautiful. Might have to get my hands on one. The playing was as good as I've seen on this channel. Great job guys

Lee! Can really hear the new chops coming in on this vid, awesome man

That purple tele is sick.

I have owned this amp since it came out. I absolutely love it and is my favorite amp I have ever owned (I owned a Vox Ac15C1, Fender DRRI 65, Fender 68 Custom Deluxe Reverb, Marshalls, Blackstar). The clean sound is classic Vox, but easier to dial in. The gain is definitely more modern but works really well. The digital reverb is really not an issue, it sounds as good as a spring on the Voxac. Definitely worth the money if you are into the Vox sound.

After last days match this cheers me really up. ;) Amazing playing guys! Greetings from Germany :D

All the thumbs up just for the intro all on its own. That is the kind of playing I aspire to

Damn Lee, the practice is really paying off. Your vibrato has always been stellar, but the expanded phrasing and note selection is really nice and much appreciated. We all get into our ruts and as many Anderton's videos I watch I kind of know what everyone is kind of going to do. Fantastic job.

My first Tube amp is this Vox AC30S1 in Cream bronco with the creamback G12M Celestion. Apparently it’s a different speaker from the regular AC30S1. Played it at our band rehearsal yesterday and it definitely has that cleaner sound that the regular AC30. More headroom to work with which I prefer. My band mates really like the way it sounded, very simply so you don’t need to spend much time tweaking knobs. It’s a start into my tube amp journey, bought it used for $600 which I think it was a fair price. Look forward to playing it more and using it at my first gig!

Pete is always throwing in great references! First with Mayer licks and now Tom Misch. Love it!

Pete is the coolest.

Pete is the epitome of cool.

I love my AC15. There is no way I could give up spring reverb and the tremolo. And I almost always use the normal channel... and it's already really loud. So this amp may sound great, but if I walked in the shop today to get one, I'd still get the AC15. Great playing! That Tele sounded amazing!

Real nice jam gentlemen! Enjoyed that one. Thanks

Absolutely love the headroom on the Vox Ac30s1! Also, I'm loving the videos with Pete and Captain! Don't get me wrong, I love Chappers and Lee's videos, but I love the presenter chemistry of Pete and Lee!

This is some of the best tone and playing I’ve ever heard on RU-vid. Awesome!

Double Denim is a win, because it's Danish Pete, wot is my dude crush. I like the amp, I'll try one out in person soon hopefully.

Pete's Purple Tele is my spirit animal.

Wicked demo. Pete's the man.

Best intro jam ever!

I'm just binging videos of this amp at this point because it sounds so. Fxcking. Good

I had to watch this a second time with the sound on the big floorstanding speakers. Such great tones and such great playing. The purple Peteocaster is really pornographic.

Amazing licks Captain. You are an inspiration as I have similar history and taste. I also started too late and it helps see you still improving over the years!

Well done Vox for listening to customers and making something practical and desirable! But the price is too much it needs to sit below an actual ac30c2 not be slightly above it in price to reflect the less features. Something around the £600-£650 Mark would have been more appropriate. For now I’ll stick with my ac15c1 and forget about the higher headroom. Great review and jam though!

I totally agree about Keith Scott! The solos he plays are amazing. I particularly love Cuts Like a Knife! BTW The Vox AC 30 S1 sounds awesome.

I just looove the sound of a driven Vox. It just seems to have more punch than other amps. They never seem to fizz - Goodness, it's really hard describing amp tones but whichever way you cut it, I love it!

I think in all of the reviews over the years you can tell when you hit on a tone or product that you really love. Excited Pete sure fits into that category on this one!

Oohhhhhhh that jam in the beginning made my day! beautifully played sirs! could you explain that backing loop/track you were jamming to? Take care and have a good one!

37.36 of joy guys and cool to see an amp that actually does not really need boost/od pedals. That could be gigged on its own. You got me interested in vox first time ever.

wow I've watched a ton of these and that run up in the beginning was inspired. thanks for that.

great sounds from that Vox. Had fun watching this.

Lee you sound Awesome as well as Pete. Very enjoyable 👍

Lovely jam at the start gentlemen....just lovely!

ALWAYS click on a Pete video

holy smokes, the payling in the opening was beautiful! Gotta agree with the other comments, Petes Tele is incredible!

Fuck me! When Lee pulled out the Les Paul, that was sweet sweet soloing! :)

Lee you're awesome man! You should def. play more in these vids!! Cheers from New England Gang!

Lee. My god. Phrasing and vibrato is so on point. Chuck just one or two nasty, fast and aggressive licks in, you’ve got a pretty complete player.

I love my AC15 so much as a pedal platform! Using a Gretsch Pro Jet and 72 Thinline Tele it sounds amazing with Top Boost volume at 1oclock and Master 11oclock for Small mic’d gigs. Sometimes miss out on the low end , but punch from the mids do the job. Would love the new 30 for the tones Pete is getting with the Tele

New amp sounds great. Love the headroom and bass.

I'm sad to say that Pete has replaced Rob in my heart! I love his vintage sensibilities. I stopped watching for a while to watch Greg Koch's Wildwood videos. Pete has brought me back.

Both sound delicious!! Especially the Fender’s.

YES! Young people should definitely listen to Bryan Adams! Don't ask me about the double denim - I'm a Geek and cannot be trusted with fashion. Nice to see the respect for Keith Scott. I had lost touch with Bryan's music for a number of years. Then I found a concert from 2015 and was gob-smacked! It was like 1980 all over again! Keith was amazing, they did a number of covers and did them exceedingly well. Yep, Canuck rock'n'roll!!

wonderful thanks, heavenly sounds

Wow Lee ! those lessons are really making a noticeable difference to your playing .
