Product Description
Based upon the selling price of other comparable English-made 60's Vox Phantom instruments, my original listing price was too low according to sales data. As a result I've raised it to a level more in keeping with prevailing market prices.
This is a very rare Phantom IV Bass made in the UK before production was switched to EKO in Italy. Its serial number of 68985 confirms that this instrument is one of the last Phantoms made in the UK.
Key details that differ from the more common and much less valuable Italian versions are the headstock logo that reads "Phantom" rather than "Vox"; unbound neck; lack of padding on the back; and toggle (rather than rotary) pickup selector switch.
The instrument is totally original except for a professional re-fret. It has undergone a recent inspection, service and set-up by master luthier Trevor Healy. All electrics work well, and the hardware and paint are original. As expected for a 52 year old instrument, the finish has checks and small marks.
This bass features a full-length scale of 34". As noted above, the serial number on the back of the headstock is 68985 (Italian-made examples have the serial number on the neck plate), and the date stamp on the neck indicates Nov 1965.
These Phantoms are highly collectible both in guitar and bass form, and none more so than the original UK-made examples. A quality (non-original) hard-shell case will be included with the sale.
