POV: Using my Vintage Vox AC30 LIVE
Got hit with a copyright, so we're back with modifications! Enjoy a little live music action from a gig in downtown San Diego with @SammyListoe . It's not perfect but nothing in life is. Recorded on my phone, rig includes my 1964 Vox AC30 Super Twin + 1964 Fender spring reverb unit and guitars are my Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul '54 Custom and Rivolta Baritone. 90% of the gain tones you hear is from the amp by itself.

Sick and tired of that ticking sound from your fender amp's tremolo? Well here's a simple fix, just what the doctor ordered. I used a disc cap I had on hand, mostly for the looks. I'd recommend using something like these for the cap (.01uF / 10nF / 10000pF value): www.tubesandmore.com/products/capacitor-mallory-630v-150s-axial-lead www.tubesandmore.com/products/capacitor-vishay-roederstein-630v...

Super helpful, thank you. You're the antidote to the crabby/complainy self-important middle aged amp repair UA-camr culture that I'm getting pretty tired of. You and Colleen are making this stuff cool again.
Dang you didn't play a single lick boo
Pinned comment. The amp was not ready to be played here, required some love.
All right let's plug in and Blow by blow make that super puppy sing
Check out the pinned comment 🙂🤘
That's cool I can hardly wait I'm eating some original Cheez-Its right now and I think I first ate them when this amp came out and they taste just the same so let's Let It Burn I was actually thinking about putting my original Cheez-Its on a cookie sheet and sticking them in the oven and putting it on a low broil for a few minutes just to see what that would taste like you know get them a little crispy I know they sell the ones that are extra crispy but I was wondering what these would taste like the originals getting that little light Char on them
Very energetic and good tone. You need more cameras 📷 or someone with a mobile. 😂
😆 It was years before I had any pictures of me gigging, let alone video lol. Had to resort to setting my phone up on stage like a loser 🤣
Incredible tone. Can only imagine how loud that was though.
Yup, deafening!
Sounds like my 68 Fender Twin.
Is that JAN tube just really tired? That low resistance might way overbias a new tube if so
Could be! We'll see when I circle back to this project
Agreed!!!
good tone, but terrible playing you need lessons
World's most boring video
If you want to hear it played just click on the pinned comment.
The Bassman not only touches it, it can kill it! 😅😂🤣🤣
An amp I'd love to spend some time with
That's it! That's THE sound, right on. Great to see your painstaking amp journey paid off. Are you running it at 245v with a step up transformer or are you just running it at 115v with the normal wall voltage?
Thanks! I biased it for normal 120v, heaters were within tolerance so I'm comfortable running it without a variac.
V good, bit no sound example for the "best amp"
Pinned top comment 😉
My 1968 Concord gives it a run for the money believe me , it smokes my two rock sss also
Never heard of a concord
Out of curiosity, what makes your AC30 your favorite amp? I've got a modern handwired AC30 and unfortunately my ears just don't get the the sound of the VOX and Alnico's. Now a Marshall with Greenbacks is heaven to my ears.
The JMI AC30's sound nothing like the modern ones unfortunately. Myriad of reasons why, but they're not really comparable. This amp is pure rock, from the moment it's making any noise on the top boost channel. Instant gain, and it cleans up better than any amp I've ever heard. Few get it until they hear this amp in person 🙂
@@YeatzeeGuitar Interesting, thanks for the rundown. Dang, sad they can't make them like the old ones. I feel like I wasted a ton of cash on my modern one.. I'm really tempted to rebuild mine following Lyle's recommendations for upgrades, maybe that will help..
@@dyamariv3628even then, a lot of the sound comes from the original speakers with their pulsonic cones, which are impossible until now to replicate
For sure, big part of the sound.
Sounds great! What speakers?
Original alnico silvers 🤙
The new super reverb is solid state.
...OK?
So good!
🙂🤘
I don't know if you should be flattered or angry. UA-cam's copyright system is FUCKED.
It's quite annoying.
I agree . . . I was trying to get some of the guitar fills from Lyin Eyes by the Eagles as someone "uploaded" an Eagles concert from last year and I almost had it figured out and it was taken down due to "copyright infringements" . . . it was up for over a month . . . f*ng Don Henley most likely took the axe to it . . . damn a$$hat needs the money . .. yeah right . . .
Get some happy tones. Nice LP.
🤙
Damn ..they all sound close to each other except for one set which from this sound sample I wouldn’t touch with a 10 ft pole.. : (
Which one was that?
I beg to differ. My tiny Blackstar ID Core stereo 40 is a great small amp and when i plug it into my full surround sound receiver I get all the tones the Fender has and a few more with my guitar that has a hand made custom made extended pick guard loaded with 3 quad rail humbuckers wires like a 50's Les Paul with coil splits. and With the P/P 500k ohm Vol and tone pots .047 orange drop tone caps the bridge tone pot also P/P for activating the bridge and neck P/U's together regardless of the 5-way switch Position. I can get many more tones that any other rig without any pedals Eat your heart out as this is my very first build/mod of a guitar. lol.
If you had to choose one: Hayseed 30 or Vox AC30?
My vintage AC30 is my favorite amp
YeatzeeGuitar. I've already installed these same tuning machines, and given that I had taken the stock nut out from the instrument, in the present, I'm waiting for having installed a new bone nut. After using these Gotoh tuners, in terms of staying in tune, would you say that your ES330 is a more reliable instrument? In other words, would you say that it stays in tune better than with the stock original tuning machines? Thanks in advance.
Tuners have little affect on tuning, unless they're very bad. Neither stock nor these are bad. The guitar stays in tune great.
How did you pushed the bushes in place?
Sounds great to me! 🤘😎🤘
The imbalance, while true, is nothing when you consider how much better the Murphy Lab sounded, it mopped the floor with those congested, horrible sounding Doil Coils, your ears are obviously biased towards what your familiar with. Bruh, it wasn’t even close, that Murphy Lab is not even in the same ballpark, the tone and playability of them is second to none, they have raised the bar and I’m sorry but it eclipsed your gold top. The aesthetic flaws you speak of are a ridiculous thing to base a decision on.
🤔 Your opinion seems to be the minority opinion based off the rest of the comments. Nothing wrong with that, but to call either of these guitars horrible sounding is a bit hilarious.
@@YeatzeeGuitarI’ve owned countless Les Pauls and several custom shops and have been through a gamut of third party pups but nothing and I mean nothing will ever beat my Murphy lab example, the tone is totally different and, to your credit, you demoed a great one. Most people are clueless! I am proud to be in the minority.
Who's calling who biased again? 😉 Every guitar is different, and we all have different tastes. Nothing wrong with that, as long as we're honest with that.
@@YeatzeeGuitarI am sure there are some Murphy Labs that are relatively weak, perhaps not as good as even some production lines and yes, they are all different but what I heard you compare aligns to my experience and if IMHO it’s what I prefer than yes I am biased. Have you played any of the 2023 Murphy Lab Brazilians? They are ridiculously expensive but after having played 3, each was equally great and honestly, life changing.
I would like to have heard a Gibson Les Paul and a Fender Strat. The 330 is nice if I were playing on stage with the MB again. PT always played a Strat through his. Great video, I have watched the entire series.
Thanks! I tried to include a variety of guitars but there's always a few that I miss 🙂
Stainless steel frets are OK for some players but not for me. To my ears there is an annoying un-equable zing in the attack when using overdriven tones. I prefer the tone of time proven regular nickel silver frets like in the '50s... PRS, Gibson, Ronin and many other guitar makers don't offer stainless steel frets and there is a reason for that. All the music we enjoyed for the last 60 years was played on guitars equipped with nickel silver frets. Even though stainless steel frets may last longer, tone is more important to me than the duration of frets.
Where, specifically, do you hear a consistent zing to the tone in this video?
@@YeatzeeGuitar Hi! I hear the stainless steel frets zing in the driven bridge portion that starts at 5:35. When it switches to SS frets at 5:45, I hear the zing on the attack of the notes, especially in the higher register. But in the end, it's just a matter of taste. And Eddie Van Halen was using stainless steel frets which sounded good to him. And thanks for this fun and interesting video!
That.. Tone.. Amp.. Yes.
That SG tone is amazing💥⚡️
Great vídeos man. Awesome tone. Supers are awesome. I have 2. A 69 and a 74 NM. One with original alnico cts that are killer with drives. And the other with wharehouse g10c, bright and glassy as hell. Wonderfull man. Sugestion ...make some vídeos testing other speakers ! All the best
Thank you! I will be doing a fun speaker comparison with my vibrolux here in the near future, so stay tuned!
Best amp ever- zero tones. Guess we just need to believe you.
Or... You know... You can click on the link in the pinned comment directly above where you typed this out and listen to it.. 🤷♂️
I like what you played to test it with so many people just bang punk rock chords when they’re testing something makes no sense. He played a pretty chord that was slowly so you could hear it.
Thanks! I tried to mix it up
You know the big blue molded caps do you think those make a difference? They just seem like from looking at them they might have that little magic touch that makes those old fenders sound great
@@godbyone Lots of people believe those blue moldeds are critical for blackface fender tone. I've never compared them in or out, but plan to in a future video :)
I have a 1971 with original speakers, honestly the most perfect tone I've ever heard straight into the amp. Incredibly loud but for recording, outdoor gigs, or an amazing clean sound it can't be beat. Hopefully people keep them cheap for a while!
Leave it natural wood. 😮🙏🇬🇧🌈♥️
You don’t see very much of your fretboard when you are playing, it mostly faces forward 🥴🙏🌈🇬🇧♥️
Did he use an overdrive box in front of it?
Only for the Gretsch clips, because I couldn't get it loud enough to overdrive without feedback
You'll want an adhesive that's fairly rigid without being brittle, to secure the loose dust cap. You want the dust cap and cone to move together as one unit. Duco Cement would be a good choice. Don't overdo it. If you glob it on and it gets into the voice coil gap, obviously no bueno.
That jazzmaster sounds killer! Exactly the JM tone I have in my head. What pickups do you have in it? And what pot values? Been considering switching pickups and pots in mine to 250k for more balance like yours has
It's a special guitar! It's got pickups that aren't made anymore unfortunately, Pickup Wizard / Peter Leonard. 500k volume/tone pots, I find that's the best balance for a JM. I do also rarely play with the tone wide open, it pretty typically lives around 7 and I adjust as necessary for the amp. The #1 thing I see with JM hate is being afraid to work with the controls, there's no reason you have to have the tone on 10. Give yourself headroom for a darker tone / amp, set your baseline lower. I do the same on my Goldtop Les Paul for example.
@@YeatzeeGuitar Very helpful response, thanks!
Ok, I understand now. You could mention this in the title to avoid misunderstanding. 🙂
Well I did state that complete perspective in the first 30 seconds 😉
They probably took the blue caps out and replaced them so they would have vintage stock for themselves and friends. Sad you cannot trust anyone to fix things without ripping you off. Car repair, carpenters, roofers, plumbers all get a bad name from the ones who rip everyone off at every opportunity.
It is sad, that was my assumption too when I did this video. It is odd of them not to just steal all of the caps though, vs the ones they did. Either way, yes a lot of shady people out there. That's partially why I like to film everything. Maximum transparency.
Although I do agree, it’s an absolutely fantastic amplifier, and for a loud pedal platform there is nothing better. But what gets me is the size and weight. For me nothing beats the blackface deluxe or Princeton.
Size and weight are definitely a factor... but so is price. A BF PR / DR is going to cost quite a bit more. Hearing them side by side as well, a super will always sound much bigger regardless of volume. BUT those amps are great too, but IMO not as great 😉
Sorry, this is nit the best guitar amplifier available today. The best is definitely the Metroplex Mk2 by Metropoulos…definitely!!!
I specifically talk in the video about the best amp you can buy today in relation to price. That amp is over 4x the cost of this. There are lots of amazing amps in the 4k range. This cost me 1.2k. There is no other amp around that can touch a super reverb for that price, in my opinion it is the best amp you can get today for that reason
Sounds absolutely PHENOMENAL! Especially with the Falcon...OMG Glorious! : ) Fantastic job! Also on a side note, whatever you are using for lighting and cameras, really looks great. Overall just an awesome video Like #149 by me, and a new sub. : )
Thank you, I really appreciate that! 🙏
Amp sounds great. Playing was great. And the video looks remarkably great too. Seriously.
🙌🙌🙌 😄🤙
