The first Vox guitars were produced in 1961 and it did not take long for Vox to make its mark in guitar history. In late 1962, Vox introduced what seemed at the time to be a totally unconventional instrument, the Vox Phantom Guitar. With its unusual offset trapezoid body, the Phantom soon became the chosen instrument of many groups of the era, including the Hollies and the Dave Clark Five.
Soon after, a guitar that was originally called the Phantom mkIII was introduced, but because of its rounder "lute" like shape, it and later variants were often referred to as the Teardrop.
The most famous user of this guitar was Rolling Stones founder, Brain Jones who made use of it on many recordings sessions and shows in the mid 1960's. Never afraid of innovation, Vox then went on to produce the Mando guitar, a short scale 12 string model used by George Harrison.
These guitars made music history, but there is no need to invent time travel to own one. They are available today, hand crafted and built in the USA, made from North American hardwoods with maple necks and rosewood fretboards. The pickups have alnico magnets for a unique vintage sound. The pickup covers, pickup rings, knobs, and switch plates, have been remanufactured for the original look of the highly-collectable Vox guitars but with many improvements.
