VOX Booth Tour - Winter NAMM 2010

[ironbuttermilk]

Whats' the advantage of the VR series? It seems like the same thing as the AD, but without the butt-fugly styling and lack of classic Vox look. Also minus the good sounding effects and storage.

So, cool that they look right (for a freakin' change) but isn't it actually less feature-wise?

[Glarinot]

They've tweaked some of the brightness that got out of control on the Custom Classic series. Part of that is due to switching from their stock Wharfdale speaker to a Celestion Greenback. A definite improvement. The controls have been tweaked a bit as well but overall it's the same in that regard.

those guitars look horrible. why dont they remake some vintage ones and make them better?

[777jordan]

definetly like the new custom series better than the custom classic. Definite improvement.

@777jordan What has improved exactly?? I'm very interested because I want to buy one... CC2 has those switches like brilliance, custom eq etc which C2 doesnt, but it does have 4 inputs which more or less probably do the same thing...

[777jordan]

well its closer to the original, so i consider it an improvement. Vox may censor this, but if you have the money, buy a JMI instead...

@777jordan

Isn't the new custom series basically a new version of the Korg era 1990's Vox AC's without the superiror craftmenship ? I still can't wait to try one out...or een see a video of it in action...
