So I've got this Vox AC30C2x (the one with alnico blues) and I'm extremely happy with it. It rocks! Now, I have never played through a vintage AC30 or any other type of AC30s for that matter.
Vox (like many others) have moved their production to China, and this sometimes bothers me a little. Googling around for this for days, I can only find information on the quality of components and such. I don't really care that much whether or not the quality is different. Some say it is worse, some say it is pretty much the same.
What does bother me is not knowing the conditions of the workers who actually assembled my amp. The Vox factory is supposed to be controlled and staffed by Vox, but does anyone know anything about the conditions? I don't mean to sound like a philantropist or even ethnocentric, but I have heard chinese working conditions at some places are horrible. Some of them basically have no rights.
So I guess my quesion is, can I play my AC30 with a clear conscience?
