Starstream HL4 Headless Bass Guitar

Breaking Barriers in Headless Bass Design

After years of meticulous research and development, Vox is proud to introduce two revolutionary headless bass guitars that set a new and benchmark in the industry, offering the look and feel of a traditional headless bass without sacrificing tuning stability or balance. The Starstream headless basses represent one of the most exciting advancements in bass guitar design in recent years.

Revolutionary Vox Headless System

The Vox Starstream headless basses are crafted for unparalleled comfort and precision. Their lightweight VSS frame, featuring a resin structure paired with an alder body, ensures impeccable body balance and effortless playability. At the heart of this innovation is the newly developed Vox Headless System, a cutting-edge bridge mechanism designed to optimise tuning stability and simplify adjustments.

Diagonal Tuning Knobs: The intuitive tuning knobs require minimal effort to achieve - and hold - precise tuning, providing exceptional ease of use.

Enhanced Tuning Accuracy: A unique winding mechanism ensures stable, highly precise tuning that won’t easily drift, allowing for an unmatched playing experience. This system is exclusive to the Starstream Bass, making it a true standout in the world of headless basses.

Optimised Neck and Joint Structure

The Deep Bolt-on Joint reinforces the connection between the neck and body, enhancing string vibration transfer for richer resonance and tonal clarity. This advanced structural optimisation ensures a responsive and dynamic sound, perfect for a variety of playing styles.

Powered by Aguilar Electronics

Equipped with Aguilar pickups and preamps, the Starstream basses deliver a full-bodied, powerful tone with exceptional clarity and depth. Whether you’re laying down smooth grooves or cutting through a mix with punchy riffs, the Aguilar system ensures consistent, high-quality sound.

Innovative Headpiece Design

Unlike conventional headless basses that often sacrifice tone for weight reduction, the Starstream basses feature a uniquely engineered headpiece. This proprietary design adds just the right amount of weight to the tip of the neck, enhancing resonance and preserving the full, rich bass sound players expect.

Crafted in Japan for Superior Quality

Manufactured in Japan, the Starstream basses embody precision craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. From material selection to final assembly, every aspect of the instruments reflects Vox’s commitment to excellence. This results in bass guitars that deliver superior tone, reliability, and performance.
