Yeah it's a Vox. Ric made a similar design which I believe Vox just copied.

Ah right! I've been wandering that for ages. Essential logic are an amazing band, ya'll should listen sometime (particularly to brute fury).

i just found one on the bay but it's not in good condition.
I will keep looking.
I did find these though:

i'm tempted, but i think they might have gone too far.

My favorite new band.

Look for them on YouTube.
Competition Stripes make them play FASTER.
