Featured in this late 1966 Vox ad.
Quietly-spoken Brian praises VOX equipment; the Stones use all VOX amplification. Brian features a VOX Mk. Xll 12-string Guitar as well as the Mando Guitar and the VOX 2-Manual Continental Organ. Together with the VOX research team, Brian created the VOX Bijou Guitar, responsible for that sitar sound of the Stones' latest recording. He says, adamantly: "Sound is all-important to me. And so is progress. VOX gives me 100 per cent progressive sound."
In this interview, Terry Riley says "In 1966 I got my first electronic organ, a Vox Super Continental 2 manual with draw bars, modeled somewhat on the Hammond B3. I started doing late-night and all-night concerts using tape delays to beef up the sound and to make a "shadow" part to interact with the primary signal. Around 1970, the Vox was replaced with a Yamaha YC 45 D 2 manual organ that my technical assistant, Chester Wood, modified to output stereophonically."
