£1,300. But it is the shit.
WANT SO HARD.
point of interest, as those are limited edition, matt good has #2-#5 and puts them on full display concert.
i will have one some day.
sound clips from this tour (rhythm is ac30h2, lead is an older ac15 with diamond memory lane)

$2400 canadian last i checked, but the more i keep reading, the more it seems like a good idea to get warranty if you get a vox.

well none. it's at a friends shop since he spilled beer all over it. he's supposed to be fixing it, but i haven't had the time to hound him about it (i know, i know).
i've previously used the ds-1, ds-2, and tubescreamer with it. i'd usually just crank the bastard and let her distort herself.

Hey,
You could use the EQ on the top boost channel to shape the sound to cut through the mix more? I
use the brilliance switch with a tele on bridge pup and it's like a box of razor blades! Also
you can get 2x12 extension cab which would increase the volume when running clean...
Or get a twin!!!
Cheers

I'm running the ac30cch through a marshal 2x12, and really can't imagine playing rock n roll through anything else. It does break up moderately early, so you know you won't be getting twin-like cleans.
