A Bobcat Inspired by the Sixties, Designed for Today's Stage

Beyond a simple reinterpretation of a legendary 1960s model, the Bobcat V90 Bigsby embodies Vox's desire to combine a timeless look with performance-oriented design choices. Its 1/4 body size retains the "hollow" character and elegance of semi-hollow guitars, while benefiting from a modernized architecture (center block and stable hardware) to remain playable with more aggressive tones, including overdrive.

Who Is It For, and What Styles?

The Vox Bobcat V90 Bigsby Jet Black is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who want a responsive, expressive, and versatile semi-hollow. Its tonal palette naturally suits jazz, rhythm and blues, surf, rockabilly, garage, and rock in a broad sense. The Bigsby encourages nuanced playing (vibrato, shimmer, lively chords), while the feedback resistance allows for higher volumes without losing control.

The Sound

With its maple body and maple top, the Bobcat delivers a quick response, clear tone, and precise attack, while maintaining the typical warmth of a semi-hollow instrument. The center block contributes to longer sustain and limits feedback, making it very comfortable with saturated sounds. The two V90 soap-bar pickups (single-coils) provide a tone that is both creamy and incisive, with present mids: perfect for defined rhythms, singing leads, and vintage textures. The 2 volume and 2 tone controls facilitate fine tone shaping, from jazzy smoothness to more biting sounds.
