Mini12 Reissue

Electric Guitar

VOX

Originally introduced in 1963, the Mini 12 joins the ranks of other recently re-introduced VOX classics such as the droplet-shaped Mark III; the Mark III Custom; the Mark VI; and the 12-string, droplet shaped Mark XII.

The 19-fret VOX Mini 12 Guitar comes fully loaded with vintage alnico pickups. Its tuning and fingering are the same as a standard 12-string guitar, except that it is tuned to “A” instead of “E.” The Mini 12 features fully adjustable intonation for each of the 12 strings, a solid two-piece hardwood body with maple neck, and exact recreations of the original chrome knobs and pickup covers. The new VOX Mini 12 guitar is available in Sunburst. The suggested retail price is $1000, which includes a hard case.
