Description

Summary: Based loosely on the Vox Phantom played by rock icons such as Tom Petty, Eko has re-interpreted the Phantom guitar for the modern player with this Eko Ghost VI. Although highly similar, there are some interesting differences in this modern interpretation. The Basswood body is cut with a shallower arc along the bass side and the headstock is slightly smaller. The ample pickguard is also pearloid rather than plastic adding more punch to its visual appeal. The modern pickups and smooth operating vibrato unit are a nice touch to this modern rendition. It has also been inspected and set-up by our in house luthier and it plays fabulously.

Body: Bass wood body with a unique shape which resembles the famed Vox Phantom! It is finished in Olympic white and topped off with a three ply pearloid pickguard.

Neck: The Maple neck is a slim and highly playable C profile with a Rosewood fingerboard featuring fat vintage style fretwire, white binding, pearl dots, 22 frets, 25 ½” scale length and 1 5/8” scale length.

Pickups/Hardware: The Eko Ghost VI's single coil sized, humbuckers and 5-way pickup switch produce a wide variety of tones, some of which may surprise those guitarists familiar with the original Phantom. The Eko Ghost VI is a guitar well suited to those seeking a modern sound but a distinctive look. Features 1 volume, 2 tone, 5 way pickup switch and 60’s Italian styled adjustable tension vibrato unit with a tune-o-matic style roller bridge.

Cosmetics: This guitar is in pretty good condition but does have a few dings and blemishes in the finish, a couple splits in the binding and most notably a ding on the bottom of the body where the finish has fallen away, exposing the body wood underneath. (see pictures) There are also a few scuffs on the back from buckle rash.

Playability: This Eko has been set up, inspected and restrung with a new set of 10 gauge strings by our in house guitar tech. The action is low, the frets are in beautiful shape and it plays nicely up and down the fingerboard.

Modifications: n/a

Weight: 8 lbs, 6 oz.
