Gasp100 Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 Price is shipped/paypald to lower 48US, confirmed address. NO TRADES ONLY reason for sale is the AxeFX - it can't come close to these Vox tones, but it offers the flexibility I need in my current situation) Vox AC30cc1 heavily modded to JMI specs by Psionic Audio. Comes with great old mojotone Alnico (8ohms) -OR - SCUMBACK H75 (16ohms) = $925 (shipped in original Vox shipping box) (Sorry, can't link to pics because photobucket is flakin out on me. I can email pics if requested, but it's in great condition and looks exactly like a standard AC30cc1) Cost breakdown: AC30cc1 (used but MINT) = $700 Alnico or Scumback = $125 BRAND NEW SET OF JJ's = $100 (will also include original tube set for backup) PSIONIC MODS + Shipping to and from = $400 (not to mention a wait time of 4 months) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL INTO AMP = $1325 Lyle Caldwell is THE foremost authority on modding the CC series (and HW reissues) to get as close to JMI specs as possible. This amp roars like a lion when pushed hard and has the utmost chime. This is a KILLER example of all of the Vox tones. His changes made everything work and sound better including the Verb, Trem, etc... Here is the base JMI package that I got from him (some of the stuff he does is kind of a trade secret of sorts for obvious reasons). This took a total of 4 months to get back, grab yours NOW!!!!): Basic "JMI spec" mod package - includes signal path changes and power supply component upgrades, a mixture of carbon film, carbon comp, metal film, and metal oxide resistors where needed, Sozo "mustard" coupling caps, the '65/'67 switch (changes the gain in the Top Boost channel), fixing the effects loop and trem circuits, and changing the output screen/grid resistors to give longer tube life while retaining the "JMI" sound. CLIPS: (first 2 are with a dark sounding LP; the second are with a brighter LP and lousy camcorder mic) http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7190710 http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7190712 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpMNqRWQHZY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shipped, (paypal ECHECK ONLY unless you pickup the 3% paypal fees) to lower 48US, confirmed address ONLY! = $595 WITH HSC Yep, back up again... sorry for the flip/flop all. I decided to scale down and change my entire rig. Anyway, I am getting tired of buying and selling so this is the BOTTOM DOLLAR deal on this one. I think it's fair - the guitar did not arrive in great setup condition to me, so I had to do some work to get it playing it's best. That counts for something. It's sweet, it rawks... The MAJOR DING is COSMETIC ONLY, NO STRUCTURAL DAMAGE. The original owner dropped it ONCE (apparently that was enough). MIJ luthier attention to detail, all USA hardware and pickups. The clips are the guitar through my modded Vox AC30cc1 into a sh*tty camcorder mic. the AC30 IS ALSO FOR SALE ($925). Not much else to say. Around 8-8.5 pounds on my crude bathroom scale. :slash: CLEANISH: DIRTYISH: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpMNqRWQHZY
santellavision Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 That's not just a ding, that an angry wife with a butcher knife pissed that he bought the guitar and she got a AB FLEXer for her birthday.

I hear those Elitist are alot of bang for the buck!!! HAHA... yeah, apparently the original owner got one bang too many out of this one. I guess you'll just have to take my word that it's a great player and the front is pristine. But, the gash on the back is not for the faint of heart. If you play "in the round" you might not want your fans seeing something like that lol!
santellavision Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 I was just joking. Seriously, I played a buddy's Elite and it was excellent. They are better than the standard Gibby's.
Gasp100 Posted January 26, 2009 Author Posted January 26, 2009 Gold Top no longer for sale; modded Vox is still available.
