A30 Fawn Brt (Vox® AC-30 Fawn (bright channel))

A30 Fawn Brt, the Helix model of a Vox® AC-30 Fawn (bright channel)

Recorded using a Gretsch Silver Falcon. Default amp and cab settings, spring reverb added. Used same performance to capture the tone of all Vox amps in the Helix.

The Beatles were the first to make the Vox AC30 famous. This particular model does not have the "Top Boost" mod added. That is a separate amp model, the "Essex A30" in the Helix. The name comes from the original coloring of the amps, which was tan/beige. The Beatles later asked for the amps to be covered in black to match their stage shows.

This model covers the sound of the "bright" input on the amp. For a darker tone, try the "A30 Fawn Nrm" model.

AC 30 Tone for Boss Katana Amps

Use this patch by plugging straight into a Katana 50. Use the acoustic channel on the amp, and keep all Katana settings at noon, and adjust to taste. This patch uses the "A30 Fawn Brt" Helix model for a chimey AC30 tone. Use the Klon for some nice hot overdrive. There's some spring reverb included to round out the tone. Sounds great on the Katana combo.

Built this patch with a little help from my friends. Pretty straightforward. I want to try to achieve a little more of tha ADT - which provides a cool delay/leslie effect. Hope you enjoy, as always, I'm very open to feedback and comments. The video is from my Stems practice sessions.

Extra Power Cable for your HX Stomp

I've been using one of these power supplies permanently zip-tied to my pedalboard, and it's been very handy to keep the original power supply around for off-board usage. Plus it's cheap and works well.
