Informed by the same philosophy of uncompromising hand-wired craftsmanship that defines the Hand-Wired series, the VOX AC30 Hand-Wired Greenback is a 30-watt all-tube combo that pairs the legendary AC30 circuit with two 12-inch Celestion G12M Greenback speakers for a warmer, more focused interpretation of the classic VOX tone. The Greenback pairing delivers tighter low end, richer mids, and earlier breakup — a bold and highly expressive alternative to the traditional alnico-loaded AC30.

Classic British Power with a Warmer Voice

The AC30 Hand-Wired Greenback runs its EL84-powered 30-watt output through two 12" Celestion G12M Greenback speakers (8 Ω each) for a combined sound that is warm, mid-forward, and dynamically responsive. The Greenback's faster breakup character makes it easier to reach the amp's sweet spot at moderate volumes, while the hand-wound output transformer reproduces the harmonic layering and midrange growl that have made the AC30 a studio and stage staple for over 60 years.

Hand-Wired Turret Board Construction

Every connection is hand-soldered onto a turret board, with no PCB shortcuts. Custom transformers and carefully selected components deliver the unpredictable musical compression and touch sensitivity that only true hand-wired construction can provide. The 12 mm birch ply cabinet replicates the material thickness of vintage AC30 combos, contributing authentic cabinet resonance to the overall sound.

Tube-Driven Spring Reverb and FX Loop

The spring reverb uses a dedicated tube circuit and separate output transformer for authentic impedance matching, producing a lush, natural reverb with independent Level and Tone controls and footswitch bypass. A transparent FET-buffered effects loop integrates modern pedalboards cleanly into the signal chain without colouring the amp's fundamental character.

Stage-Ready Specifications

The AC30 Hand-Wired Greenback weighs approximately 32 kg with dimensions of 705 × 263 × 567 mm, and features the two-channel Normal/Top Boost layout with individual High and Low inputs, making it ready for any stage or studio application.
