The difference is as easy as telling the difference from black and white. The e-bay guitar has black pick-ups, and the one pictured with Bill Wyman obviously has white pick-ups. So in that sense the thread title is correct in stating that is is a Bill Wyman [type] VOX bass, but would have been incorrect had it said Bill Wyman's VOX....

Read the ebay description.

Dave Dee did a deal with Bill for this bass...

Whatever that means.

Oh, that Dave Dee. Well, it still remains that the pick-ups on the guitar Bill is holding in the photo you posted are white and the one pictured on e-bay has black pick-ups. Maybe Bill had more than one VOX bass? Is there a photo of him holding a VOX bass with black pick-ups? With all due respect to Dave Dee, I think it should come with a certificate signed by Bill Wyman.

See this VOX link above. It lists a Bill Wyman 1966 bass which looks a lot like the one on eBay. Question still remains if Bill ever used it, or just endorsed his name. The guy on eBay says that Wyman was a previous owner.

Is this really Bill's? I would buy it if it is, but I would have to be sure.

Yes, there are 2 guitars in the bottom photo, one with white pick-ups and one with black pick-ups. It says "Wyman bass" though, and not "Wyman's bass". I dunno, not that I would have the cash for such a sale, but it would be better if it were certified by Wyman himself. Also, the person doing the sale has to do is write a letter or email to the man himself.
