Vague, time wasting WTB Vox-style head thread... and I'm in Scotchland. :)

camf

I’m currently endlessly browsing here, eBay and Facebook looking for, ideally, a 15 watt, Vox style head that I shouldn’t be buying. But if anyone happened to have something like that lying around and available at a bargain price, I might be more interested than I should be. If you know what I mean.  

This is a sh*te advert but I’m supposed to be saving up for studio time so the less interest the better.

This is f****** sad. I’ve hit a new low.

@Wazmeister I’m sorry.

I've got a Hard Wired Orange Tiny Terror - Its a cracking amp and with its compliment of EL84's and 12AX7's it is vaguely similar to a Vox AC15 . .  . Its not really at a bargain price either but it would be an amazing asset in a Studio, Practice or Live situation . . I dont actually want to sell it but I've set my heart on a Japanese Gretsch Jet . . .

Hi @maw4neu l had a look at that but I’ve had a TT before and it was miles away from what I’m thinking. I suspect even your very nice one won’t be the right thing. But I’ll listen to some clips and ponder.

I've also got a Wienbrock Gringo up for grabs . . . . . That seems to do almost anything ??? Probably more Tweed though on balance :-) I really need to sell one of them but cant be arsed too much as I adore them equally . . . Life's too hard some days ! !

Divided by 13?

@Kebabkid ; IN MY DREAMS!!! Fab amp. Way out of budget. I'm stretched to even get an AC15, but I have a spare 1x12 with a Celestion Blue in it, so it's something to go nicely with that.

Note relevant but difficulty-increasing location update. Edinburgh to be a little more precise.

If you don’t need the volume and especially if you have a cab with a Blue, then this might be the cheap way to get AC tones???

@dazzajl What might? Did I miss something?

Haha! I'd thought about that too... but collection only.

Anything around with my northerly brethren before I spring for a new AC15?

Top Hat Supreme Sixteen ?  I have one not being used at the moment.

@Reckless ;Hmmm... lovely amp. Where are you based? Do you want to PM me details?
