I had the great pleasure last night in company with Raoul from these forums of visiting Andy from The Amp Factory at his studio, what a nice friendly helpful chap he is !! We got to play some amazing profiles, some new and some not yet released one of which is a 1964 Vox Top Boost which he has found a new way of profiling, this I have to say is just bloody amazing, it spent many years at Abbey Road but has now ended up in Andy's hands and the profiles although in their early stages are awesome.
He also gave us an insight into things to come and I have to say if you think it is a good at the moment just wait for the next year, some incredible things in store.
Am off to see him again hopefully soon and maybe be able to get a few piccy's of the amazing amps and guitars he has in his personal collection will I will stick up on here if anyone interested.

Sounds like fun!
I might even fly over some time to be with you guys. -
Man, where is the video?!?
I've been reading about his latest project and am very interested in what he's come up with. His latest packs have been superb and I've not found an AC30 that I'm nuts about yet. Only an AC15 so far.

You wait till you hear this new vox
he has !!!!! -
Yep this Vox is awesome and Andy is a real perfectionist so he is taking his time to get it exactly right
And to boot it spent all those years in Abbey Road, just imagine all of those famous people that have used it on recordings, was a real treat to try that beast. -
Sounds like fun!
I might even fly over some time to be with you guys.That would be awesome mate, you would be very welcome.

Nice! How about a video walk through
-
I will discuss it with Andy next time I see him
-
I think if I had a VOX from Abbey Road it would easily replace my Teddy Bear!
Better that Andy has it, lest I drool in my sleep and ruin it.
I'm definitely gonna get this pack. Andy's on a Roll!

The Vox is great but I also tried something other things, believe me the future is looking very exciting
