Vox gives the Mini Superbeetle a British Racing Green makeover
Iconic Beatles-aping guitar amp gets a fresh limited-edition look
Vox’s Mini Superbeetle - a downsized version of the guitar amps The Beatles used for their mammoth stadium shows - was last year’s must-have mini-stack, and now Vox has managed to make it even more desirable with a fresh limited-edition look.
For 2019, the UK amp company has equipped the Superbeetle with a British Racing Green finish, based on British sports cars from the ’60s.
Otherwise, it features the same Nutube-loaded tones as the original, complete with onboard tremolo and reverb.
The MSB25-BRG will be available in very limited numbers, with the UK price listed as £380, so we’re expecting a USA MSRP of around $499.
