They look really cool - there's obviously a lot of thought that's gone into the design aspects. There's one thing that bugs me though, and that's the control layout. It just looks untidy and haphazard. It may be superbly ergonomic in practice, but visually, it's a bit of a mess.....

The 'city jazz' and 'chimy' sound clips are gorgeous. Yawns for the rest.
Nice guitar overall. I have mixed emotions about the contoured body shape -but I'll wager it's comfortable!

Add a Bigsby and I might give one a spin.

Thanks for sharing it with us, Mitch.

Interesting. I find the normal 335 shape quite comfortable playing standing up. Is it better with the "melted" lower bout? I have no idea, but it is definitely Vox in its weirdness.

Much better than the Wyman bass reissue, which they really messed up: big tuners, back and sides of a non-matching color, and more expensive than the originals even on the vintage market.
