There are no current Vox bass amps aside from the Pathfinder 10, which is a nice little, and I mean little, practice combo. You'll have to scour eBay for Vintage Vox, but there are certainly "better" alternatives.

lots of options, why not go out and test drive what's available to you. It's ALWAYS better to play before you pay.

A Rupert Neve console with George Martin at the controls.
Paul's sound was in the mixing, not the amp. And remember that he dumped Vox like a bad habit as soon as their initial endorsement deal had run its course.

There's always the Westminsters and Kensingtons that are always up online (ebay). Or you can look for a T60 combo like I have.
