It's a red Vox for sure...more than likely an AC-30, maybe an AC-15

Yep...the early ones were called Fawn, it's kind of a tan colour then they switched to black as the standard colour but red and white were both very popular custom colours, Fawn stayed on as an option even dark blue and a dark green could have been had at some points...

It's hard to even say for sure anything aboiut that amp except that it is a red Vox amp.
If it is a 60's JMI era Vox AC-30 it's a little rare...there are a few out there but they are pretty pricey...I'd say between 6 and 8k for a red AC30 from the 60's would not be at all out of line...

I didn't realize there was an amp in this picture, since it's covered in badass.

Didn't Blink use ac30's for some clean stuff before their split not sure what albums but not so recently. It could also be a custom build as well as a vintage amp it wouldn't be too hard for someone with the right skills to retolex a vox in red. Blonde vox's are just to die for in my opinion!

Tom DeLonge uses all kinds of amps in the studio.
understatement.
vox,fender,marshall,soldano,diezel,dumble,roland...etc.
some boutique amp called a victoria.
---
live he currently uses VOX AC30s for his dirty sound (yeah, dirty.)
and fender twin reverbs for his clean sound.

not to mention the bassist is sitting on GOD KNOWS what combo tube amp (its in a setup with a marshall and a VOX, cant be bad!)
and the guitar on the left is actually some sort of limited edition fender tele with p-90s. it actually belongs to the bassist.

i think its an integral part of his sound.
its why the ac30 sounds driven so hard.

I want them to tour Oz and hear this VOX ac30 driven to hell sound! I love how they sound happy like I don't know its not so serious and emo sounding like most rock music (of any genre) seems to sound today like everyone lives **** lives whereas Blink 182 sound like a nice sunny day to me.

well he doesnt get like... Pantera distortion out of it, but hes got a really cool overdriven-almost-distorted type of vox sound.

When Vox was under Korg rule in the 90s there were a lot of special edition AC30's. Limited runs of red, purple & fawn tolex. One of my friends has a purple one for sale... somewhat near you actually! I think the purple was limited to 150 or 200 pieces...
Don't think I've ever seen a green AC30... not as a "stock" model anyway.
