Korg has introduced a number of new products under the Vox brand, bringing back the Vox Continental Keyboard, new VX50 portable amps and a limited edition maroon version of its popular Custom Series amps.

The original Vox Continental was a transistor organ that appeared in the 1960s, and was used by iconic bands such as The Animals, The Doors, The Beatles, The Monkees, The Velvet Underground and many others. The relaunched Continental uses a new interface that allows quick accessibility of every function. The sound engine section is centred on organ, electric piano, and acoustic piano.

In addition, it features an effects section to enhance the sounds, and even an analog valve drive powered by a Nutube vacuum tube. It has a starting price of £1,769 and is available from October 2017.

Elsewhere, the VX amp series has been added to with three new 50W models for bass, keyboards and acoustic guitar.

The bass model includes a Vox original eight-inch speaker, with a unique bass reflex structure that ensures ample power and rich low-frequency reproduction with a warm vacuum tube sound. There’s also a four-band EQ that allows detailed sound-shaping, a compressor effect for bass, and an overdrive effect.

The keyboard model comes with a coaxial speaker that outputs clear sound up to the high-frequency range, a bass reflex structure that reproduces rich low-frequencies, and a three-channel design that provides an independent volume control for each channel.

Nutube vacuum tubes feature on the acoustic model, plus an eight-inch coaxial speaker, bass reflex structure, two-channel design with Instrument and Mic channels (each equipped with independent volume controls), independent EQ and high-quality effects for detailed sound-shaping, Mic In for phantom power and a Phase switch to minimise acoustic feedback.

Available from September, all three models are priced at £259.

Lastly, the firm introduced new limited edition Maroon Bronco versions of its core Custom Series amp line.

The latest limited edition features a Maroon Bronco colour scheme with the amp’s iconic diamond fret cloth. The lineup includes the classic AC30 (£999), AC15 (£659), AC10 (£479) and AC4 (£399). All will be available in October 2017.
