Brand New maple gold top VOX SDC-55.I first found this guitar because I'm a HUGE Prince fan and he played the HDC-77 by Vox (the semi hollow version of this guitar, same pick-ups and also made in Korea. The Vox Korea factory must've been the bomb). But after playing both I prefer the solid body version. I also own a Vox Virage which is more expensive and was made in Japan. I still prefer the SDC-55 and the craftsmanship is actually better on this Made in Korea sdc-55 than the Made In Japan VOX Virage. The neck on the 55s is smooth as butter. This is my favorite model guitar on the planet. To me it is the perfect electric guitar both in looks, feel, and tone. I have owned countless high dollar guitars. For one guitar the SDC-55 by Vox beats them all. So much so that I bought TWO of the exact same model when I heard Vox were closing down shop. The one pictured is used and I'm not selling it, unless you'd prefer it at the same price over the new one, haha. The one I'm selling is the brand new second one I bought since I just realized I don't need it waiting around as a back-up. I have the exact same guitar that is brand new still in the plastic and original box, with case (same one as pictured but brand new). Below are some reviews I pulled offline, and whole-heartedly agree with them about this guitar perfection VOX created. "I just can't get over this guitar. What drew me in was the versatility that was advertised. Its coaxe pickups are great and this guitar's tone and sustain are awesome. another thing that i was really focused on was comfort. I really love the look of les paul bodies but they are often pretty heavy and can be tiring to play after a while. I perform rock shows with my band regularly so being able to play for hours comfortably is important. this guitar has it all. great looks, comfortable and fun to play, and great sound. I'm so glad i got this guitar. Rock on Vox!!!""You know all the specs. I wanted to talk about how thing guitar actually performs and feels. First off the contours were one of the biggest reasons I bought this guitar. As a slightly overweight guitarist I often find myself holding guitars a little differently. They don't often sit well on my stomach. Not the case with SSC 55. This thing is just so comfortable. The other guitarist in my band is very thin and he too says it's a very comfortable guitar. Way lighter than your standard Les Paul. In the studio... oh man. So let me explain that within my band we have 21 guitars. Gibsons, PRS, Fenders, Lados, high end Schecters, as well as a Hagstrom Viking, and a G&L. As you may guess, we're not afraid to spend on quality gear. Here's the thing... we're 9 songs into our 11 song album and every time i've tried tracking with other guitars, i've ended up redoing the takes with my Vox. It is THAT good. My other guitars has even used the vox for a couple takes over his PRS. Just saying, this guitar is even better than advertised. Especially in the studio. I think at first it takes a bit of getting used to. And on some amps (especially solid state) you dont really hear the tone changes as much. When i first bought it i was slightly disappointed, until i really figured out the guitar and how to bring it's best qualities out. Now, even with all our guitars it's always the first one I grab."
