Anyone ever try it out? I love it with greenbacks and gonna be getting one soon, but just curious how it'd sound through a quad of v30s

Sort of... I didn't like it. They were really good emi V30 clones. REALLY bright.

G12H's are great with an AC30. I'm really not a fan of the Vintage 30's with it. I mean REALLY not a fan.

I also ask cause I saw a band with one of these

The V30 can be overbearingly bright in a small open back cab. AC30s aren't really known for being bassy amps . . . putting 2 and 2 together, my money would be on this combination not working too well. If you're plugging it into a closed back cab though that's a whole different story.

While V30 are influenced (very loosely) on Blue Alnicos I dont think they sound very sim,ilar and the upper mid spike doesnt compliment the AC30s tones
