Vox AC30 Custom Classic Series Harma Retro full upgrade kit covers the AC30 CC1, AC30CC2, AC30 CC2X and AC30 CC HEAD It is designed to give you the classic Vox sound by providing as close to the old Mullard tone as possible.

The Harma ECC83 Retro provides a harmonically rich and detailed sound with clear 3D midrange warmth. It has a very open and clear top end chime giving that gives the amplifier that rich sustaining tone. The outstanding feature is a smooth linear midrange response and extended frequency response. So you get smooth warm overdrive with tight fat punchy lows and that classic Mullard style bottom end.

The EL84 Retro has a deep well defined tight bass that produces the classic slam of the Mullard in the bottom end with the bass being deeper and belter defined.
The midrange performance has been tweaked to provide warm clear detail at low volumes with clear articulation and smooth even distortion when the amplifier is cranked.

This combination removes the High end fizz and the rather brittle distortion characteristic which is the most common complaint levelled at this amplifier and brings the amplifiers sound back to life.
You will get improvements in such as a crystal clear top end with more extension and clarity when used clean. When using the overdriven settings the valves combined characteristics provide a warm sustaining sound with plenty of upper harmonics with excellent projection on solos.

The Harma GZ34 Retro is modelled on the Mullard military CV 1377-GZ34.
This valve uses Mullards compact serrated anode design with a double supported getter.
This has a number of advantages, with the biggest being that its design is resilient to shock and vibration, making it an ideal choice in Vox AC30s

The Harma Retro GZ34 also provides correct rectification and works well in early Vox AC30 with no reduction in B+ voltage unlike many of the modern GZ34 on the market.

This is the ideal kit for any player who wants that Classic Vox sound.
