A new and original VOX mini guitar that’s easy and fun to play anywhere!

The VOX phantom-shape has held a special place in musicians’ hearts since its debut in the 1960s, introduced alongside the classic teardrop shape. VOX is now thrilled to introduce a compact guitar that draws inspiration from this iconic VOX guitar.

The versatile new MARK V mini guitar promises to become a staple in a wide range of scenarios. Whether you’re entertaining at home parties, unwinding in your living room, adding a spark to a festival or camping trip, accompanying you on tour (especially when paired with the amPlug or VGH Series headphone amps, it makes an excellent travel guitar!), or even during recording sessions in your home studio, this compact instrument is sure to shine.

With its smaller footprint, narrower neck and light body, the VOX Mark V mini is easy to play, especially for those with smaller hands who find playing full sized necks frustrating and difficult.

Featuring a short scale that still plays like a regular guitar

This new MARK V mini guitar features a 476 mm short-scale neck, but by stringing it with heavier-gauge strings, it can be tuned to standard tuning(E-A-D-G-B-E) unlike most other mini-guitars in the market. The nut is the same size as a regular guitar, but the 476 mm length is three-quarters the scale of a standard guitar. And yet, because of the clever design and the standard tuning, the MARK V mini guitar  can be played just like a standard guitar with no need to adapt your chord fingering. In fact, because of the shorter scale neck, your fingers can stretch further and play chords not possible on a standard neck-length guitar!

Custom pegs for smooth tuning

We’ve developed custom Tuning pegs with an adjusted gear ratio of 18:1 to match the short scale of this instrument. This makes tuning  the MARK V mini guitar as effortless as a full-scale guitar.

Pickups that offer the classic VOX tone

The MARK V mini guitar boasts two high quality single-coil pickups that give you the distinct sounds of the 1960s, along with a selector for choosing from a wide range of sounds.

A body shape that’s brimming with a vintage feel and originality

The Phantom body shape is possibly even more unique than the Teardrop shape – the iconic design, known for its edgy yet vintage looks, has been a favorite for countless artists and guitarists. The MARK V mini guitar is available in two standard body colors, white and black.

Envisioned for a variety of users

With its compact yet authentic style, the VOX Mark V mini guitar has been designed with a wide range of situations in mind,  and will also add a cool,  vintage look to your home or studio!
