MusicRadar rating

3.5 of 5

Pros

Authentic tone. Ultra-simple design.

Cons

It's very, very loud.

Verdict

There's no doubt that when used faithfully, this amp offers a tone of wonder. However, if you have to turn it down there's really no reason to get this amp. If you imagine you'll be constantly reaching for this amp's volume pot and thus compromising your tone, we suggest opting for the AC30CC.
