The chime, shimmer and touch-sensitive feel of the great British EL84 amplifiers have inspired generations of guitarists for more than sixty years. From sparkling cleans and edge-of-breakup grind to harmonically rich overdrive, few sounds are as instantly recognizable – or as influential. A member of Dave Friedman’s Vintage-Series, the VX-30 is a 30-Watt, all-tube head that captures everything players love about those iconic vintage circuits while adding thoughtful refinements that expand their versatility.

Built around a quad of EL84 power tubes and inspired by a rare 1963 copper-panel amplifier enhanced with a Top Boost circuit, the VX-30 Head delivers the unmistakable chime, harmonic complexity and touch sensitivity that define one of rock’s most celebrated amplifier designs. Unlike the vintage amplifiers that inspired it, the VX-30 Head places both channels in phase, allowing them to be blended to create entirely new textures while preserving the unmistakable voice of each circuit.

Handcrafted in Los Angeles using premium components and custom-made transformers, the VX-30 Head isn’t simply a tribute to a classic – it’s the vintage British experience, evolved.

2x12 Extension Cab Loaded with Celestion Alnico Blues

The Friedman VX-212 extension cab is designed to perfectly match and compliment the Vintage Series VX-30 all-tube head, delivering glorious, dampened attack, warm lows, mellow upper-mids and brilliant bell-like top-end. The VX-212 cabinet is an open back 2×12” extension cabinet which utilizes tongue and groove Baltic Birch construction, that coupled with VX-30 Head, evokes rich definition and develops beautiful musical compression when pushed.

At the heart of the cab are dual Celestion Alnico Blue speakers, a benchmark for tone connoisseurs that want to bring out the unmistakable chime, harmonic complexity and touch sensitivity of the VX-30 Head.
