Who This Amp Is For
Ideal for the discerning guitarist, from advanced players to professionals, this combo excels in studio, rehearsal, and small to medium-sized venues. Its crisp clean tones and edgy crunch textures are perfect for rock, indie, pop, blues, and britpop. The 15 W tube power offers an accessible sweet spot without excessive volume, while remaining prominent in a mix.
Features and Innovations
The AC15 HWR combines 4 inputs (Normal Hi/Lo, Top Boost Hi/Lo) and a 2-band EQ on the Top Boost channel for great versatility. Dedicated master and volume controls allow precise tube breakup control. The built-in reverb adds depth without masking attack, and the fully hand-wired topology ensures transparency, dynamic response, and easier maintenance. Front panel connectivity (4 x jack) simplifies voicing and input level selection, from simple single coils to high-output humbuckers.
Sound
All-tube, the AC15 HWR delivers the famous VOX ?chime?: sparkling highs, expressive mids, and tight lows. The Normal channel offers a spacious, articulate clean, while the Top Boost adds brightness, bite, and the natural compression typical of EL84 tubes. The 12-inch Greenback enhances the vintage character with musical breakup and gritty mids, perfect for punchy rhythms and singing leads. Moderate headroom, fast response, and rich harmonic texture: a true British sound, from clean sparkle to inspiring crunch.
