Anything you'd use any other AC30 for - early British Invasion, Queen, interior demolition - only this one's already got all the aftermarket mods...

FYI sale's over - it's back up to $1399 again...

I guess I wasn’t clear.
I meant “where and when” I would use it. I’m not in a band.
In my house, a ten to fifteen watt tube amp is more than sufficient to do interior demolition at 50% volume levels.
The Vintage Valco National Chicago 51 I just picked up with 15 watts will destroy even the largest room in my home.

Yeah - believe it or not, they seem to be the hot ticket among current Vox AC owners - but in the interest of both longevity and tone I'd use a set of these:
