Introducing the new Classic Plus range of all-tube amplifiers from Vox. This EL34-powered line-up marries the classic Vox tone and chime of rock and roll legend with a versatile high-gain channel that goes beyond anything in Vox's 50 year history and into all-new Vox sonic territory. With available 50 and 100-Watt heads plus the new AC50CP2 50-Watt combo, the Classic Plus range delivers amps that do it all -- from the '50s to tomorrow. Sound big? You bet. What do 50 years of classic Vox sonic history sound like? Play one.
2 Channels, Endless Possibilities
The Classic Plus is a channel-switching valve pre and power-amp guitar amplifier that can produce many flavors of tone, from pristine clean to impressive high-gains, and all points between. The 2 channels have a variety of wide-ranging controls to help you create the sound textures that you desire.
Channel 1 covers classic Vox AC30 tones, from sparkling clean to raunchy overdrive. The EQ on this channel is of the interactive passive format that is historic to Vox Top Boost amplifiers and boasts the addition of the famous Tone Cut control, which musically rolls off high end as it is turned up.
Channel 2 picks up where Channel 1 leaves off, delivering everything from modern blues and classic rock tones all the way to high gain classic metal sounds and fluid lead tones. While Channel 2's EQ controls are also of the interactive passive format, they are centered on different frequencies to enhance the higher gain capabilities of Channel 2. The Channel 2 Bright Switch brings in an extra capacitor (switch down) across the Gain control to boost the high-mid and upper frequencies and is particularly effective on lower gain settings. The Bright Switch is great for giving extra bite and clarity to muddy sounding humbuckers. The Fat Switch adds extra gain, and focuses the mid range of the guitar and amp, which helps produce a "singing" tone when playing lead lines.
The Presence Control circuit is another unique feature to the AC range. It combines the traditional active power amp feedback circuit with a passive circuit within Channel 2's preamp. This not only focuses the Presence boost, but, if you turn the control down, it will also introduce a high frequency cut filter that can be used to de-fuzz the preamp distortion, making it less aggressive and sweeter. Since the channels of the Classic Plus are totally independent, you do not need to compromise to achieve your desired tonal palette. It's almost like being able to mix and match two completely different amplifiers!
Total, Tonal Control
The Classic Plus range is packed with features and controls that meld the best of Vox's history with modern conveniences. The Classic Plus features a long spring, high-quality Spring Reverb with individual, foot-switchable level control for each channel, plus series FX looping with selectable level control and bypass switching. The Bypass slide switch will either engage the loop (switch On) or disconnect the effects loop circuitry from the rest of the amplifier (switch Off). With the Loop switch in the Off position, the Send jack socket is still operational and can therefore be used to send the signal to another device such as a tuner or slave amplifier. The Loop Level switch allows the loop to used at 2 different signal levels (approximately +4dBV (high) and -10dBV (low)). This will enable a wide range of devices to be connected to the amplifier. Channel switching and on/off reverb control is managed with the supplied VF002 dual footswitch.
Go Direct
The Classic Plus range features extensive direct recording and line out capabilities from both balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4 in. outputs with rotary level control and ground lift switching. To enable great sounding connection into PA or recording equipment, the DI also features a speaker emulating Low Pass Filter (LPF) network. This can be switched into or out of circuit as required. Another great plus of the DI circuit is that it is post the power amplifier's phase inverter valve, and before the Output Master Volume control. No matter how loud or quiet your stage level is, you have totally independent control of the DI output level. You can even turn the Master Volume totally off and use the DI output for "silent" recording for those midnight sessions.
Power Trio
The Classic Plus range is comprised of the 50-Watt AC50CPH head (4 x 12AX7/ECC83, 2 x EL34B), the 100-Watt AC100CPH head (4 x 12AX7/ECC83, 4 x EL34B), and the 50-Watt AC50CP2 combo (4 x 12AX7/ECC83, 2 x EL34B). The AC50CP2 comes loaded with 2 Vox original design 12 in. speakers voiced for maximum performance with the Classic Plus. Pair either of the heads with Vox's V412BN cabinet, and you've got an unbeatable tone machine. No matter how you play, there's a Classic Plus for you. And with their combination of unmatched tone, flexibility and ultra-cool looks, the Classic Plus range is at home on any size stage. Plug in and hear them roar!

Marshall 4100 100W Guitar Amplifier
| Marshall 4100
With 4 - 5881 output tubes for 100W of room-shaking power, this head is made for nonstop heavy rockin?.
For total control, the 4100 has 2 channels, each with separate Gain, Master Volume, and Reverb controls. Channel A is voiced for anything from shimmering clean to raw crunch reminiscent of a JTM45. Channel B picks up where normal boost channels quit, generating supercharged distortion and ringing sustain. Other great features include 4-band rotary EQ, adjustable effects loop, and both normal and cab effect direct outs. |
| With jangly cleans and high gain filth coexisting in perfect harmony, TH Series amplifiers excel whatever the situation. The Dirty channel features the same powerful Shape control first seen on our Thunderverb series, sweeping the midrange from scooped to boosted. Fine-tuning your distorted tones has never been easier or more rewarding. The Clean channel delivers sweet, crystalline cleans, right up to the point of breakup, whilst the Dirty channel remains unerringly focussed, steeped in complex harmonic overtones even at maximum gain settings.
The TH30 has proved to be one of the most popular heads in the Orange range, and with good reason. The sheer range of tones that can be dialed in from just six controls is nothing short of jawdropping whilst the quartet of EL84 valves convey their own crisp character, breaking up into rich overdrive when pushed to the limit. The switchable output section can be used to tailor the amp to the situation, scaling down from 30
to 15 or 7 Watts. The TH30 also features our low impedance valve buffered effects loop. |

| Building on the overwhelming success of our acclaimed Dark Terror and Dual Dark amps, weʼve distilled thousands of customer demands into a pint-sized valve hybrid head – the Micro Dark. The Micro Dark shares the same intuitive Shape control combined with a new 12AX7-driven high gain preamp section which yields screaming dirty tones that make a mockery of its miniature frame. Like its bigger brothers, however, the Micro Darkʼs smoky black chassis and simple layout actually disguises its cunning versatility.
Of course, thereʼs plenty of gain on tap to satisfy even the most discerning devotee of distortion, but this little beast is by no means just a one-trick Metal monster! Beneath the menacing exterior youʼll find a rich and diverse pallette of classy and confident tones. From squeaky clean to brash and mean – whatever your style – youʼre gonna love this thing.
Other features include a transparent fully buffered effects loop and a headphone output with our popular CabSim circuitry. With the optional PPC108 cabinet, the Micro is an ideal practice rig… Plug into something a little larger, though, and you might find your new secret weapon in the studio! |
