I had a Vox, AC 15, and I sold it because I thought a blues junior would be better. Then I ended up selling the blues, junior and getting another Vox AC 15. I just got it Monday. The AC 15 has much more low end. It has the same exact tubes as the blue junior, but it weighs 20 pounds more. The AC 15 max is out at 48 pounds, versus the blues junior at 28 pounds. I can tell you that I like the Vox better because it has much more low end. The blue Junior has wimpy end, it’s not low there’s no bite, whereas the fox has a heavy thump you crank it with the bass up full Definitely like the Vox better

The Vox was sweeter and smoother clean and gnarlier dirty. I've played both but not on the same day but I thought the Junior was bland and the Vox full of character. Especially with the Alnico Blue speaker. I loved it so much I now have one in my arsenal.

I have the original tweed BJ, after watching this, I’m glad I do. I’m not a fan of the control layout on the Vox. As for tones, I’ve switched out the speaker on my BJ, installed a Carr Kingpin, also put some Tungsol preamp tubes in there, JJ’s power tubes. It sounds very different now. Sounds amazing really. Great video mate!

My favorite amp of all time is my Vox AC15 HW1X. A lot of people will avoid Vox amps because of their reputation for being shrill or glassy, which can be the case if you're just jamming on one solo, but put them in a live band mix and yo realize that tone is perfect for cutting through and being heard. Excellent mid range on them. Perfect small to medium size gig amp.

Both. That's what i did. That's my never-sell duo (along with my beloved HiWatt T20 and Laney VC30 210" Jensens , UK made) but for a fairly portable dual mono/wet-dry/stereo rig they can't be beat. They complement each other so well. The EQ profile of each amp - made for each other! If I'm feeling nuts I add a small 1x12 extension to the Vox, loaded with another Greenback. Happy playing! Hope you are satisfied with your choice.

I own a AC30C2 and a late 90s Blues Junior. I bought the Junior to give my wife and myself a break from the AC30 when I want to noodle around a bit when not recording. I like the Junior, it sounds good enough. But the Vox circuit is far superior IMO. I do enjoy the small form factor of the Junior. I've only had it for a few weeks but next time I go to play with friends outside my house not lugging my 80 pound AC30 will be nice.

Can't decide on either one? Check out the Monoprice/Harley Benton 15watt all-tube combo. Kind of the best of both worlds (three band EQ, presence knob, one channel, clean sounds close to Blues Jr, dirty sounds like a British amp). Not the best looking amp but worth checking out.

@jezmez68 Жыл бұрын

The key for me, I think, is having a Celestion Speaker. I have a Boogie Fillmore 25, and while it is out of the price range of these two, that Celestion Speaker is what "makes" it. It's really a souped up Fender, but I think that Fender design paired with a Celestion is killer. If you don't mind spending around $2000 for a tube amp, then I would recommend the Fillmore. It's got two channels that are set up the same, even has independent Reverb knobs for each channel.

I have an AC15 cc1 with the Wharfedale speaker and a Tweed Blues Jr with a Cannabis Rex speaker. Both amps are amazing but I will say the Fender takes pedals a lot better. It's weird, some days I like the sound of the Vox better and other days I prefer the Fender. I would get one of each off the used market where it's easy to get some great deals so you can switch it up.

They are such different sounds. Chase your tone. Love them both - though for some reason I like the AC-30 better than the 15 that has nothing to do with volume. I say buy both. Love both!

I have both, and both are fairly new. BJ= more middy, WAY better reverb, much higher clean headroom, OD sound is meh, but take pedals well. I use it for smaller country/roots gigs. Mates well with a Tele. AC-15= A bit more "open' tone, not the best reverb tank (I upgraded), lower clean headroom, edge of breakup is where it thrives, OD is to die for, takes pedals well. This is a R&R machine that will make any guitar sound killer.

I'm a total Vox nerd and make all my videos on an AC30 with just a smartphone. I've also got the AC10 as well and dude that thing is ALSO a GREAT amp! Yesterday I made a youtube short of literally just a Les Paul plugged into my AC30 with it totally cranked and man the natural distortion of a Vox is just the most glorious sound in all of guitar nerddom to me! I personally like to make John Mayer video shorts without pedals because I think an AC30 is that versatile and I also think it's funny to play Mayer straight in since people spend fortunes on any pedal that he just happens to like. LOL! Vox forever to me BUT I totally understand that they are also not the cup of tea of every player. I just personally absolutely love them but you can't argue with Stevie Ray Vaughan and Clapton's tone!

I am a vox fanboy. The Fender sound is just more Neutral. If I had to do it all over again, I would have still started with Vox but also bought a Blues Jr or similar sounding solid state. The AC tone is a commitment that the more neutral amps don't have to deal with. My other favorite amps are the JC120 and the Magnetone Twilighter. If you have the budget or the soul to deal, the AC30, jc120 & twilighter isthe trifecta of tones. :P

AC has a surprisingly good dirt channel... it's got some heft to its' chugg! Also... I didn't think either had spring reverb tanks, so thats a plus - for both of them. But the tremolo is a big win for the Vox. As it stands...i have a Fender Deville AND a Marshall DSL40C...I need a "small" amp i can just easily carry to wherever...a BBQ at friends'...or even just a hang on a Saturday afternoon at a friend's' mancave, with the boys. The AC is the winner. That said....the Fender clean tone is so good, though - its a must have if you dont already have it.

I sold my Blues Junior when an incredible deal on a VOXAC30 came up. In hindsight, I should have kept it.

I've never tried to lift an AC30 but I know they weight a ton!

@Landon Bailey having the two handles helps! My Blues Jr. had the Eminence C-Rex Speaker and was fully re-capped too :( But $800 CAD for a MINT AC30C2 with footswitch?? How could I pass it up?!

I liked the blues Jr better for cleans (just slightly) and a lot better for the gain channel. Does anyone know of a boutique amp thats better quality that can do the BJ flavor cleans? Even other Fenders like deluxe reverb or twin doesnt the same kind of cleans as the blues jr.

cleans = comparable. BJ is dull, Vox brittle dirty. I'm on 2cnd BJ and with a TS-9 it will sing and sustain @ volume. Please try that on these next. The only Vox In had was an AC 50. It was just as Loud as my Blues Deville 4X10. All my Fenders loved pedals

The Deluxe Reverb 1968 reissue is better than the Blues Jr.? But the DR'68re is killed by the Vox AC10C1, so the AC15?kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bsiJdZdktbKxemQ.html
