VOX VSS-1-BK Starstream Type 1

General

Generally speaking, the guitar world is pretty conservative. Still, now and again, a manufacturer takes a risk and develops something truly outside the box. VOX's remarkably comfortable, innovative Startstream Type 1 took 4 years to perfect and is capable of more sounds than a standard electric guitar. This particular VSS-1 comes in black and features a specially-designed 3D frame and a mango wood body. What's more, it has VET (Virtual Element Technology) which can simulate a wide range of instrument sounds. It's a real chameleon!

Starstream Type 1: versatile modelling technology

The VOX VSS-1-BK is equipped with two humbuckers, a piezo pickup and Virtual Element Technology. This means that besides a selection of electric guitars, you also have a variety of acoustic instruments at your disposal, including a 12-string steel-string, banjo, resonator or even a sitar. At the same time, the VET can emulate synthesizer sounds too, like a bass synth. You can adjust all these sounds to your own personal preferences and even store them for future use.

The VSS-1 in practice

The VOX Starstream Type 1 is the solution for the versatile musician. It's a high-quality guitar that offers you a wide range of possibilities. Besides instrument modelling, you also have an assortment of effects to play around with, including drive and reverb. With a total of 27 sounds spread out over 9 banks, plus six user programs for your own creations, you'll have lots to work with and will be able to find the sounds you prefer with ease. Practising in silence is no problem thanks to the handy headphone connector and to top it all off, the VSS-1 even comes in a robust gig bag.
