Does an AC30 really sound that much different?

    They've got upper mid frequencies that are pushed a bit and a total lack of bass. This can make them sound a little odd when played on their own, but is great once you start mixing them with a band.

      What about Led Zeppelin II that is my favorite VOX tone.

        Was that recorded with a Vox? I didn't realize that.

            Yep, Whole Lotta Love and a bunch of other stuff were recorded with a VOX Super Beatle going through a Rickenbacker cab.

              A Super Beatle sounds a bit different than an AC30. The first 4 Deep Purple albums were certainly an AC30.

                Without a doubt. I was just stating it is my favorite tone squeezed out of a VOX.
