So I recently acquired a Vox AC4 Head and Cab, as well as a 70's Belltone amplifier, so I figured I would share:

The tremolo on the Belltone is super funky and sounds phaser-y at high speeds. The amp itself doesn't have too much breakup and is relatively quiet. The Vox on the other hand is bleeping loud, even at the 1/4 watt setting, but the saturated sounds is to die for, so I guess its time to crank away!

Congrats on the new amps.

I've never seen a Belltone before. What tubes does it have ? model # ?

Im not too sure on the tubes, but its a division of Teisco primarily sold in Canada. These amps are apparently hard to come by and are sought after as nice little studio beasts!
