Just picked up this baby - what a beast! She must weigh about a half-a-ton (all maple). Made in Japan for Vox in the early-'80s. This is the model allegedly used by Billy Sheehan when he replaced Pete Way in UFO. The neck P/U sounds cool, the bridge pickup on it's own is basically unusable to me. Neck is big - maybe too big for me. Total late-'70s vibe - brass nut, brass-plated bridge and back cover plate, laminate neck-thru, etc. Plays nice, all-in-all I think it's a great bass for the money. Anyone else have any experience with one of these.?
