RE: (TV) Re: clean guitar tone

Nah, when the ac30 was designed in the late 50s, amp designers lived in fear 
of distortion. I don't think that Vox started adding boost channels to their 
amps till the mid to late 60s. Although they did have a Vox Distortion 
booster, a tiny little boost box that could be plugged into your guitar or 
amp, which has its finest hour on Lou Reed's 'Heard Her Call My Name' solo 
and 67-68 VU live recordings. Not really a sound I associate with Mr 
Verlaine though....
