(I posted this on the PP-board as well, more Vox users there, but I wanted to share it with you as well..)
I love Leslies for guitar, but they are usually big and bulky, and not that great looking. I´ve been looking for one for a while, but no luck...
On a trip to my local music store, I stumbled on what I think is THE coolest looking, and potentially best sounding Guitar Leslie I´ve ever seen, and I had never even heard of it:
The Vox Gyrotone: It has Two Pre-Rola G12H30 8ohm speakers in a closed cab in the bottom, and one G12H30 16 ohm mounted horizontally with a revolving drum on top.. It´s in great shape, and supposedly still works right. I did´nt have time to play it. I´ve only been able to find one(!) pic of this on the ´net.. I´m gassing so bad.. It´s beautiful:
I think I´m in love...

Gyrotone 3
Hi,
I was very surprised to see the little brother of my Gyrotone 3, which is nearly double that big in height. Originally this cab was made for the Riviera organ by Vox, but with it
