'60s VOX Streamliner

 Premier Guitar January 2008
Picture an ES-175 with an unusually severe cutaway, fitted with a Fender Coronado neck. Did we mention the built in “E” tuner, fuzz, “repeater” and wah wah palm control? This guitar was born in Italy, known for its elegant double breasted suits and twelve cylinder engines.

on 04/13/2010 		sploshette . you have some amazing guitars on flickr ..i just bought a 69' grand prix in mint condition ,sunburst.. im freaking out .. so , in the new vintage guitar price guide it shows a streamliner and doesn't have it's value listed , or a grand prix or cheetah for that matter which is crazy , so anyway, is a streamliner the red version on the grand prix? cuz they look identical .. do you have a cheetah you want to sell?
