I have a Korg RI Vox AC15 .. lovely size for gigging, not too heavy but still plenty loud enough. I assume the AC15CC is a similar size/volume.

I did hear quite a few complaints about build quality when they first started making the CCs but things seem to have settled down now .. so maybe just teething trouble.

This was (is) me

I bought the blues jnr for my AVRI Jag - for some reason it sounded good to me in the shop and i was blinded by its rugged build quality but it was just too ice-pick brittle for me when i got it home, just totally the wrong sound, and i had to take it back. I bought the Laney VC15 which suits my British alt-indie-rock style heaps better and is much better IMO at more sensible bedroom levels. Its a 15W tube amp with switchable channels, bright switch (for the more brittle cleans) and great sounding gain.

I'm pleased as punch
