THU MADE IN ROCK – KR30

The highly detailed fluid capture of the 6-knob AC30* once belonging to Keith Richards*

THU Made In Rock – KR30 is based on the 6-knob 1964 AC30*, owned by the Rolling Stones* and played by Keith Richards* during their early tours, including the legendary Blackpool concert.

The History of a Legend

This AC30 reference amplifier delivers an unusually high gain even without the Top Boost circuit. The cabinet is equipped with two Vox* 12" Grey Bulldog Alnico* speakers. This amp was acquired from Peter Fielding, the guitarist of The Executives, and added to the Made In Rock collection.

From a Gig to a Riot

This is the amplifier used during the famous July 24, 1964, concert the night the Rolling Stones rocked Blackpool into chaos and got banned from the city for almost 50 years. During the ensuing riot, different pieces of gear were thrown off the stage, including the AC30 amplifier, which was ultimately recovered and repaired to its prior condition. Decades later Overloud were fortunate to be able to capture this historic amp in all of its original glory.

THU Made In Rock – KR30 includes:

• The Made-In-Rock KR30 amplifier model.
• The matched cabinet model, based on the original 2x12" combo speakers.
  
• A bank of presets with the sounds of the most famous songs played with that amp.
