musicvox

Musicvox is the brainchild of Matt Eichen, an oral surgeon with a passion for guitar collecting and a deep respect for the guitars of days gone by. He didn’t exactly set out to be a manufacturing mogul. Eichen simply wanted to design a guitar to add to his extensive collection. But almost two decades later, Musicvox is producing a wide range of guitars and basses that combine modern functionality with funky aesthetics.

Musicvox may not be a household name, but you’ve seen their instruments if you caught the Austin Powers flick Goldmember where Austin’s band plays Musicvox Spacerangers. The placement of the ’60s-chic guitars not only gave Musicvox a boost of pop notoriety, it attracted such players as Allen Woody and Tom Petersson, whose tastes for the out-of-the-box design led them to seek out Eichen for his creations.
