Hello Goodbye:
My Vox V845 Classic Wah Wah Pedal is much easier to use...

Yeah, I bet that's a great combination. They knew what they were doing those Beatle guys ;)
I've never owned a Vox amp myself but have played through a few - always loved the lovely clean, crisp sound I got when I used my Rickenbacker 12-string through a Vox. Only other amp that has come close for that kind of sound was an old Fender Twin I used for a while.
To keep this remotely on-topic, which guitar was George playing on Wait?

George was after a particular sound in 1962-3. No doubt he was influenced by Chet Atkins. Yes, they knew what thry were doing alright! ;)
The AC 30 I bought last year was the VOX AC30CC2X, a limited edition model with the same specs as the 1962-3 AC30. The sound I get with my 1963 Country Gent through that amp is much what George heard back then.
The two sources I have for what guitar George used on Wait is at home. I'll look through Recording The Beatles and The Beatles Recording Sessions tonight and post what I find, Peter.
