Vintage Early 80s Vox Custom 24 Guitar Model 3001.

This rare Vox was made from 1982-1985 in very limited quantities.

In addition to being rare, this is an excellent playing Vox that appears to be completely original as well.

Excellent vintage condition with a few small marks here and there, but for its age, overall very, very, clean.

Comes as pictured with original case.

If you are a Vox collector, this is one that does not come around in this type of condition very often.

Buyer pays fixed $100 shipping/insurance in the US(lower 48)

The Vox Custom 24 guitar featured a hard rock maple body with a "neck through body" design (picture at right). All hardware was gold plated. Vox offered the Custom 24 from 1982 through 1985.

The Vox Custom 24 was equipped with a pair of DiMarzio X2N humbucking pickups. DiMarzio desctribes the X2N as a "take no prisoners, in your face" humbucker. The DiMarzio website also states that the X2N is their highest output pickup and is designed to push tube amps into "total overdrive."

Master luthier and guitarist Adrian Legg designed the passive electronics used to control these pickups. In addition to a three position pickup selector and individual volume/tone controls for each pickup, the Custom 24 guitar also included a Series/Parallel switch for each pickup and an In/Out phase switch for pickups when in the mix position.

The 24 fret maple "neck through body" had a "C" profile and an ebony fretboard. The top of the head stock was contoured into a Gibson style "moustache."

The Custom 24 included a brass micro-adjustable "Tune O Matic" style bridge, stopbar tail piece and a brass nut.

A close comparison of the location of the bridges on the Standard 24 and Custom 24 reveals another important feature of the Custom 24. The bridge on the Custom 24 is located closer to the mid point of the body than on the Standard 24. While both the Standard and Custom 24 guitars both offer a 24¾" scale, the relocated bridge and 24 fret neck of the Custom 24 allowed access to two full octaves of playing range.
