Simply an AC-30 TB head. Made in 1966 by Jennings Musical Instrument Co. Three chanels, all tube, hand wired, etc. Rather odd controls for this Fender guy but funtional none the less. I own a matching super twin cab with blue bulldogs. I use a variety of new and vintage effects with it. It's a little sensitive with the noisier stuff but the tone is worth it.
Sound Quality: 10
I like the Top Boost chanel. It's very bright sounding but that's the charm of it. I play differently when using it, as it's hard to make it sound bad. Really an amazing amp! You should recognise zillion of classic UK tones with it. A nice alternative between Fender and Marshall. I could use it all the time if given the oppertunity.
Reliability: 8
It runs very hot, and likes good tubes. I wouldn't want to depend on it, but I love it none the less. I just keep it serviced regularly and baby it. Definately not my daily driver

I think that if you play jangly rock and roll this is the holy grail. I used to own a Matchless, and I prefer the Vox. These amps are magic, and wonderful for those accidental sounds and overtones. They crunch and chime and you hear every note in the chords you play. I consider myself very lucky to own one, being the po boy I am. Playing for 30 years. Blues, Rock and Roll. They're expensive, not good value, but the sound is second to none. So that rates a ten in my book.
