With iconic looks, effortless playability, and a classic tone, Mark III Mini guitars combine the sound and feel of a full-sized instrument in a compact format that’s unmistakably Vox.
The Vox Mark IV “teardrop” guitar is a 1960s icon. A unique look, combined with two single-coil pickups for a distinctive bright tone, became the instantly recognisable choice of some of the biggest bands of the era. Now, the Mark III Mini reintroduces this classic sound and style in a guitar that’s small enough to take with you wherever you go. Vox Mark III Mini models feature the same tuning and tension as a standard guitar, but with a 476mm scale. Heavy gauge strings and newly designed custom tuning pegs give the familiarity and playability of a full-sized guitar, while two single-coil pickups provide the deep lows and sparkling highs you expect from a Vox.
Thanks to heavy-gauge strings, a 42mm nut width, and a familiar tuning tension, the Mark III Mini offers the same playability as a standard-sized guitar, but with the advantages of a 476mm short-scale neck.
Mark III Mini guitars are easy to tune thanks to newly developed tuning pegs and an adjusted gear ratio matched to the short scale of the instrument. This
means standard tuning is smooth and stable.
Two single-coil pickups sit at the heart of Mark III Mini guitars for a rich dynamic range – perfect for that classic 1960s tone. A selector switch increases the versatility allowing you to hone your sound to suit a wide range of musical styles.
