Bluetone AC30 Combo 2×10″

This 2 channel tubeamp is based on Vox AC30 provided with some my own Bluetone mods. Amp has 4xEL84 power tubes providing some 30 W output power. The amp in pictures has 2×10″ Celestion Gold Alnico speakers, a spring reverb and VVR for amp output power dynamic scaling.
When planning this amp, one goal was to make an amp which is smaller and lighter than original but maintaining it`s legendary sound. Amp cab dimensions are W 60 cm H 50 cm D 24 cm. This amp has a 2 tube spring reverb producing lush and rich reverb effect. VVR is to provide dynamic power scaling for power amp.
