Single Channel Design

With a single channel based on the Top Boost channel of the AC30, this potent amplifier provides that unmistakable UK '60s sound. With a chimey and articulate clean, the AC30S1 can extend to a rich and gnarly overdrive when you push its gain control, thanks to its unique touch-sensitive circuitry and four EL84 power tubes.

Modern Features

The AC30 may be most notorious for its old-school tones, however the AC30S1 has been appointed with some modern features to appeal to contemporary players. A built-in digital reverb expands your tonal palette, giving you a convincing spring reverb sound with plenty of vintage character. 

But if you're keen to run other time-based effects through the amp, like a delay, or even use modulation pedals such as chorus or phaser, the AC30S1's effects loop will allow for seamless routing of your pedalboard chain. The front end of the amp also reacts beautifully to overdrive and distortion pedals, making the AC30S1 the perfect pedal platform.  

Although it packs 30W of power, you can use the AC30S1's external speaker output to connect to an additional cabinet if you're looking to rehearse and gig in large spaces. Plug it into a 4x12, and you'll certainly push some serious air!

Main features:

  • Single-channel design inspired by the AC30’s trademark Top Boost.
  • All tube design featuring two 12AX7 pre-amp tubes and four EL84 power-amp tubes.
  • Equipped with a single Celestion-made 12-inch speaker, specially voiced for the AC30S1.

Exceptional Guitar Buying Experience – Highly Recommended! I recently purchased a Gretsch G5122 Electromatic from Gough & Davy, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. 🚚 Super Fast & Secure Delivery The guitar was shipped via FedEx and arrived incredibly fast. The packaging was beyond impressive—so secure that you could probably drop a nuke on it, and the guitar would still be intact! 🤯 Top-notch protection and care in shipping, which is rare these days. 🎸 The Guitar – Stunning Quality! Even though it was sold as second-hand, the condition is practically mint—I was honestly shocked at how perfect it looks and feels. This was my first experience with a Gretsch, and I can confidently say it was money well spent. The tone is absolutely amazing, and the craftsmanship is outstanding. 💬 Customer Service – Smooth & Professional From the moment I placed my order to the moment it arrived, the process was easy, hassle-free, and professional. The team at Gough & Davy clearly values their customers and ensures that every step of the buying process is smooth and enjoyable. ⭐️ Final Thoughts This shop deserves more attention and more customers! I can say without hesitation that Gough & Davy has gained a loyal customer for life. If you're looking for a reliable, professional, and passionate music store, look no further. Big thank you to the team – I’ll definitely be back for more! 🎶🎸🔥

Visited Gough & Davy with a view to trying out some acoustic guitars. I'm an experienced semi professional musician, and knew what I wanted. Sean and Oli were extremely kind, helpful and knowledgeable. I was able to not only try out some very nice instruments in store, I also was able to have a really great chat with members of staff about instruments in general and have a bit of a laugh. At no point did I feel pressured, it was a thoroughly pleasant shopping experience. I managed to find an instrument that matched my initial description incredibly closely and I made a purchase and have no regrets! If you're in Hull and need to visit a welcoming, well stocked and professional music store with a wide range of stringed and keyed instruments then look no further! I'll be going again, but I'm going to put a lock on my wallet. 5 Stars all day long. Cheers guys!

Just been to this shop after visiting others in the area. Been looking for a decent guitar for a while after owning many cheap and cheerful ones. On entering the shop was greeted by Olli who gave me a great service and help to find what I was looking for. I am over the moon with my tanglewood acoustic guitar. Thanks very much Olli.

My daughter wanted to get back into playing flute. Katie was very helpful and knowledgeable guiding us in the right direction and not at all pushy. When we finally decided (some months later) the flute was ordered quickly and efficiently and arrived within a week. First class personal service and I would fully recommend Gough and Davy.

After a disappointing experience with an alternative high end guitar shop in Beverley, my family went to see if these guys could help us find the right guitar for my lad. Their Google reviews are very high and expectation was set from that, though what we actually experienced was some of the best customer service I've ever encountered in my life. Their prices are competitive and they are happy to help put a good package together based on properly listening to requirements then offering appropriate guidance and suggestions, but the knowledgeable, competent and personable manner of Shaun was next level and made this the perfect start to my son's journey into his music story. I honestly cannot recommend this place enough. We'll definitely be going back here, and I would advise you to go see them too. First class!
