I have a Vox Wyman bass. These tend to be all laminate woods. The neck is super narrow- think banjo neck. They are fun though, and you can't beat the price to own a vintage bass.

The price is what got me thinking. I found it on a search and it's discussed on another forum. Appears to be missing a few things ie, back pad and active electronics. Still curious though.

Well I bought it. Chris you're right the neck is the skinniest thing ever! I'll put up pics when I take them I've been too busy playing it!

Ted and Chris I have always love the shape of this model. Vox has such a great history and now you guys get to live it. :lol:

Please post some tone clips or send me the mp3s and I will be pleased to do it for you.
