Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized Vox dealer

The VOX SDC-55 Double Cutaway (SDC) solid-body guitar embodies the same design philosophy as the original VOX Virage. Combining advanced production methods with hands-on craftsmanship results in a superior instrument that is remarkably playable, yet versatile enough to provide you with your own personal voice.

3-D Body Contouring

State-of-the-art carving methods provide the 55 solid-body instruments with a contoured body that fits naturally and comfortably, whether you prefer to play sitting or standing. The top surface is also perfectly carved, resulting in additional playing comfort and a distinguished look. The set neck features an inverse heel design and deep cut that offers unobstructed access to the upper frets. The distinctive headstock and the bound fingerboard are inlaid with the winged "S" shape mother-of-pearl.

Superior String Handling

The advanced MaxConnect(TM) aluminum bridge features extended saddle travel for flawless intonation with any gauge string. The full contact shape and light weight combine to deliver thick, rich tone with clear, singing harmonics. Strings slide in from under the back edge of the bridge to make changing strings a snap. VOX's Super Smooth tuners offer enhanced tuning stability, so you can play with confidence. The mahogany necks are finished with rosewood fingerboards.

Rich, Refined Tone

Each of the three pickup elements in our new CoAxe pickups delivers a unique and sophisticated tone, yet each one remains whisper-quiet. By combining different pickups with different settings, the 55 solid-body guitars offer a deep range of tonal choices. The passive analog tone circuitry offers both a Master Volume and a Master Tone control to re ne your individual sound. The controls are easy to use and logically laid out, allowing fast changes during performance. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Vox products.

Read 1 Vox SDC-55 Electric Guitar (with Gig Bag) Review

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "One of the most versatile guitars in existence"

Sound: The sound of the pickups themselves get a 9, but due to the brilliant design and overall versatility, I'm going with a 10. These sound just about as good, if not better, than any other random professional guitar pickup. Great clarity. A bit better clean that distorted IMO, but that's very subjective. Feature: Just read the description of what it can do. It has one of the nicest electronics systems I've ever seen in a guitar. Also a lot of pretty "dressings," but not too many. Just enough to present itself as an extreme versatile players instrument that could double as a real studio workhorse. The gig bag it comes with is very nice, being "plated" to a degree that makes me feel safe using it to transport the instrument to and from gigs. It comes with pretty decent strings (D'Addarios) as well. I changed them as per my preference, but its nice to know that your instrument will arrive strung with something respectable. Ease of Use: Although the pickup system is vast, the switches are very easy to use, reach, etc. and it doesn't take much brainpower to work it out. In my opinion it is quite a bit more intuitive than say, a Fender Jaguar or vintage Cipher. Quality: I've seen a lot of guitars in my day, and this is second only to my Ibanez Prestige in build quality -- and a close second. Literally there was not a single blemish on the entire thing coming out of the box. I'm flabbergasted. Even the setup was perfect. I have never pulled an instrument out of the box before in this condition. Value: Easily one of the best guitars in its price range. Manufacturer Support: I've never dealt with Vox concerning their guitars, but I have regarding some amplifiers. They have always been very prompt, informative and helpful. The Wow Factor: The teaburst finish is just straight up gorgeous. No picture I've seen on the Internet even comes close to doing it justice. The binding, the inlays.... from a pure looks standpoint, this is one of the nicest looking guitars I've ever seen. Overall: The only negative thing I could say: The strap pins. They're bigger than normal -- too big to use normal "clip over" style straplocks. Those are my favorite kind of strap locks, and so I'm annoyed. If something happened to this instrument, I would cry tears of blood and then go buy and / or steal a new one.
