I believe there's a firm in the US called Phantom Guitars who bought up a load of Vox and/or Eko components and who now sell modern versions of those iconic guitars including the Brian Jones "Teardrop". I think they retail at around £600. Dolphin music had the Brian Jones model a while back.
The nearest I got to a Phantom was a Hutchins (see pic).

It was pretty good soundwise and I thought the build quality wasn't bad but I never really took to it and sold it on. It was very awkward to play sitting down which is how most of my playing is done!
