VOX AC15c1 TONE HACKS: YOU MUST KNOW THIS!
If you find that while using the Normal channel on your AC15, that there is very little bass in your signal, well you are out of luck. Or are you? I found these tone hacks about two years when I was messing about in the studio. I thought I would share it with you and hopefully it can help you out.
The trick works on AC30 as well as AC15 amps. If you prefer the TB channel, you can crank up the Normal channel volume to get an extra kick in volume and low end.
Let me know what you think of this!

I use the top boost channel. I get it out about once every 6 months when the kids aren’t home screaming or telling me “it’s too loud.” The man holding me down. I pull out my telecaster and spent about a half hour trying to remember that one song by that band I like, where he does that one cool thing, you know the one? I used to know how that song went. Then I pull out the Les Paul, get distracted by something else, and take a nap on the couch. All on the top boost channel. That’s my tone.

The reason why the Top Boost tone stack affects the Normal channel when you bring the Top Bost volume up is because the first 12AX7 tube is used for both channels, and it has both triodes sharing a cathode connection, so some of the sound from one channel is sent to the other. This is an exclusive thing on the AC15C1, as the original AC15 amps used a separate pentode tube (EF86) for the Normal channel.

I have had an AC15h1TV Handwired for many years. I nearly only use the Channel 1 (EF86) for its warmth and noiseless advantage. However, the treble was every so slightly blunt or dull and switching the brightness on would be too harsh to my taste. While using the channel 1, I always used the Channel 2 volume off but this video really opened up a world of possibilities. I just went to my original setting (Channel 1, no brightness, bass shift 1, pentode mode) and opened up slightly the volume of the channel 2 while adjusting the bass and treble... WOW!!! Amazing! The sound is much more defined, mainly in the treble. It keeps the warmth of the Channel 1 but the eq seems much more balanced and sweet!! Thank you so much for these tips!!!

You are most welcome. You are the first to confirm that it works with the hand-wired amps. These amps sound different compared to the AC15C1, but they still have enough similarities that permit this hack to work. I am happy to hear this. If you have not watched my new Tone Hacks video, I have even more tips in there for you. Here's the link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p7h2dbx-ldibgmg.html

Really great suggestion so thank you.

I just switched to Vox and I agree it takes a lot of time and work to adjust the knobs to where I like the tone but it was worth it( and fun).Once i got it dialed in the tone is second to none in my opinion.I spent a lot of time with the Vox and a Fender and the Vox won me over .Now I want to trade my AC30 combo in for a Vox head and cab.

Excellent choice of amp Vox for me all the way. The AC 15 is fantastic - I tend to use pedals for a lot of swooshy delays and reverbs with the amp reverb mid way. (tuner - Comp - boost - tone/klon & Chorus - reverb - delay - delay short - volume/expression). I turn up my amp and down the guitar, I can always add as I require from the volume knob or pedal etc. The amp is more likely to be some metres behind me on stage I can't keep popping backward to set it, once it's done it's done. I used to use 2 AC 15's one clean one dirty. I play for fun now and i'm retired I did most of my career behind a huge Premiere or Ludwig kit.

Hey Mark, I'm a huge fan of Vox amplifiers as well. Sounds like you and I do something similar, as I ride my volume on the guitar as well. I just changed the pots on my LP Junior and I'm way more satisfied with the results when playing with the guitar pots. I think the AC line is a fantastic choice for pedals, I'm getting great results with a TC Electronic G-System. Your idea of using two AC15's has crossed my mind as well. I love the dirty tone and clean tone, but sadly can't toggle between them. I'm still searching for an overdrive pedal that might be less expensive and gets me closer to the drive tone I want. By the way, did you see my new tone hacks video? I have even more tips in that one. Cheers

Thanks so much for this one too! Certainly top tips again. Your videos are so massively informative and very well made, I could not possibly ask for more. As a Vox AC-15 and AC-10 owner, I have learned so much watching them. So hats off. The tones are superb and playing is top notch. Spending a day in quarantine at the moment and I think I will test this video’s hack (TB volume cranked) now. What would you say is the essential tip for getting great tones at low volume levels? I see you usually have master volume cranked up all the way and perhaps have channel volume around 9 or 10, if I am being correct? Anyway, keep up the good work. Greetings from Finland.

One other thing (i don't know if you already made a review), i discovered your great channell a little time ago ... I love the Boss - SD1 into this Amp, for me fits perfectly as a medium drive !!

I was looking for this video because I wasn’t sure if this was how it supposed to work. My top boost channel was almost dead, read on the internet and it was the v2 tube. Swapped with a tung sol and it came back to life. Then my reverb started to act weird, I swapped RCA cables, Problem solve. Started to mess with controls and notice this. It’s a game changer. This amp is a beast!

Teemu Järvinen pretty much just what his video says. I’ve started using a radial aby for more tone shaping. Master full. Mostly normal channel with top boost blended in for top end. Just depends how loud I can be. Reverb to taste. I’ve Learned over the past few months that are using your guitars volume and tone knobs with the ac15 can really do wonders. Also try tone cut about halfway. Another cool trick is to turn tremolo depth to zero and rate to max or maybe it’s vice versa. But yeah this dude knows his stuff . Hope you find your sound
