How have we not discussed this? Those guitars seem like a lot of fun! The drum thing isn't all that great, but every other feature looks really cool. The distortion sounded good too.

Dear Vox, the time is nigh for you to stop fucking around with novelty crap like speaker equipped drum machine guitars and re-issue the goddamn Phantom.

Holy fucking lol @ standby switch.
Is this thing tube powered? Better not rock out too hard with it, I guess...

I got excited when I first opened this thread, then I realised all the knobs were drum machine and amp stuff instead of the crazy effects old Vox's used to have. If they're cheap I guess I could see myself buying one and rewiring it to have a delay in it or something.

Yeah, I thought all that shit was onboard effects. This thing means nothing to me now.

I owuld hope the fucking thing gets loud enough to feedback/infinite sustain?
i dont know dudes, I kind of really like this a lot. But I'm sure some pansy ass dingding band is going to get them and do a whole QUIRKY FUN ALBUM with guitardrummachine.

Regardless of the drum machine and everything else, I don't think most of you are seeing the potential of this.

Eko is making a reissue of their Phantom called the " Ghost "

And back in the day they were the ones making that guitar for Vox ... Just sayin,.

I've never played one or even seen one up close but I thing they seem pretty cool. Rock like Ian Curtis ..

It looks as if Vox are doing proper reissues. I saw a hollowbody Vox Teardrop bass in a shop the other day. The price-tag was well over a grand, though, so they can do all the reissuing they like - don't think I'll be tempted.

I would buy one for $250. It looks fun. I could keep it in my office.
The blue one. Not the teardrop.
