January 23rd, 2008
Vox has come out with some gorgeous looking guitars, these are 2 new guitars from them the Virage DC double cutaway and the DC Virage SC single cutaway
They wanted to create a balanced instrument that was a lot different to most off the shelf guitars
They wanted something that was good looking, good sounding and comfortable to play
Solid wood guitars, they use curvature which is ergonomic.
They use VOX three 90 pickup system which has two triple coil pickups that provide clean, crunch and leads tones
The pickups were built in the USA by DiMarzio. The guitar comes with a three way toggle for the pickups
They each have a Integral Tonebar that prevents feedback to much and provides a nice warm sound
