Title: I'm new here, questions about Vox 1964 JMI AC10
Post by: actenner on January 21, 2026, 10:48:38 am

Hi. Brand new here. I'm not an amp builder, and barely know enough beyond biasing my Marshall DSL 100. I love the tone of the 64' Vox AC-10 in this video:
Listen from 5:25 minute mark to 5:55 and then from 22:00 minute mark to 22:31 for reference. Can anyone direct me to the section of the site where people know the inner workings of these JMI era AC-10's?

And where I might find information about trying to build one based schematics here or elsewhere. I could never afford one of these old ones, but maybe with the help from my friend who's an electrical engineer, I could start somewhere. I love the articulation and spank of this amp.

Have people here replicated this older circuit? I really want one of these. Much thanks.
