Here’s a slice of British amp history from when VOX was still under Jennings Musical Industries. The unmistakable sparkle and growl that shaped the sound of the 60s. Running four EL84s through the classic grey panel and Top Boost circuit.
The three-channel layout (Normal, Brilliant, Vib-Trem) provides heaps of character, from clean jangle to raw, saturated crunch. Built in Dartford and heard on countless stages from The Beatles, The Edge, and Brian May, this is the sound of British rock before it knew it was classic.
