It was based on the one that Vox made in England for him around 1964. This specific guitar has fantastic birdseye figuring throughout the neck and headstock. The pickups sound just as fantastic top to bottom and the simple controls give you all you need to get straight and great tone. The slim neck is easy to move around and will be perfect for players who like a thin profile c shape, yet will be familiar enough to a variety of players to prove versatile.

A great addition to any roster, this killer piece will surely catch as many ears as it does eyes.
