The Tube King gives me a really good Marshally crunch, or a sweeter lead tone if I use the neck humbucker in my guitar.
1996 June 3, Matthew William Brock, “Re: Effects preferences?”, in rec.music.makers.guitar (Usenet)2 more examples
The tone and tremolo controls and the inputs make a lot more sense on the AC-15 than on the AC-30. The AC-15 also has reverb which the AC-30 does not. On the AC-30 you can cascade the inputs and get a very Marshally sound at higher volumes.
2001 March 24, Mike Thomas, “Re: VOX AC-15 Reissue”, in alt.guitar.amps (Usenet)The "Love" channel has a Fender and old Boogie vibe to it. The "Lust" channel has a more Marshally tone to it. It is an extremely loud amp, but it is not a high gain amp.
2006 May 14, Gung Ho, “Re: Mesa Boogie Heartbreaker”, in alt.guitar (Usenet)
