Product Description

A new concept of Ukulele with an innovative and unique frame structure!

The VFU-1 is a new concept of Ukulele with an innovative and unique frame structure without resonant body. It was designed for the serious high-end ukulele player and is ideal for silent practice, studio recording and live performance where high-quality line output is required rather than just miking a ukulele. Equipped with a piezo pickup, mixable Chorus and Echo effects and a built-in preamp, the VFU-1 Also adds to the sonic possibilities of a ukulele making it an ideal additional instrument for the dedicated performer VFU-1 will be available in 2 colors, CRW: Rosewood / CFM TB: Flame Maple Blue.

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!
