Title: VOX SDC33 Guitar
Post by: swordofdoom on October 08, 2012, 08:10:09 AM
Any of you guys know anything about the Vox guitars, specifically the SDC33?

It's a sick looking axe with some awesome features, and it's under $600.

Might take the bait on this one and see how I like it.

Thoughts?

Agreed, looks really cool, and I love the concept behind the pickups.

If I didn't already have an Ibanez Artist, I'd totally gas for that too.

we had one of those Vox guitars in used for a minute. It played GREAT. It sounded very good, but it's a bit on the light side for me.  It doesn't necessarily lack thickness in tone, but it could use a little body weight to help it out when you click the pickups to single coil.

That seems to be the general consensus.

And the fact that the bridge is adjustable to use pretty much any gauge of string is pretty much the icing on the cake.

I've been thinking real hard about those Agile Les Pauls, but that might have to wait until I get my hands on one of these babies.

Fuckin' gas is killin' me, man!
