DESCRIPTION (from Vox Showroom)

When Vox first produced the AC-30, it was only available as a self contained "combo" amp. In fact, the name AC-30 stands for "Amplifier Combination - 30 watts. With the amplifier and speakers combined into one case, the AC-30 tipped the scales at about 80 pounds. Fender had addressed this issue by converting a number of their combo amps to separate heads and cabs for ease in transport. JMI followed the trend by introducing the AC-30 head and a matching speaker cabinet in the 1962 Vox catalog. These new amps were called the AC-30 "Super Twins."

Vox also recognised that Fender amps offered separate treble and bass controls as a standard feature. Prior to 1964, if one wanted separate treble and bass controls on an AC-30, an optional Vox "Top Boost" kit needed to be retrofitted to the amplifier. The Top Boost circuit added treble and bass controls that were mounted rather inconveniently in a rectangular hole cut into the upper back panel of the amp. In response to customer demand, Vox revised their control panel in 1964 to relocate the treble and bass controls into the top panel.
