It might look familiar at first glance, but if you've ever held an original in your hands you'd note the obvious differences: three HOT humbuckers, a 3-way switch with no in-betweens, and a foreign neck feel, to name a few.  Love it or hate it, the guitar was an absolute powerhouse, and bore the unmistakable high-quality the Matsumoku name had become synonymous with. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJoining the ranks of our other successful \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/eastwoodguitars.sbs\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage%2Ccollection\u0026amp;options[prefix]=last\u0026amp;q=univox*\"\u003eUnivox tribute guitars\u003c\/a\u003e comes this latest Univox project: the Ripper!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith this release, we've captured the essence of the original guitar by including three hot-wound open-faced humbuckers.
