Vox Phantom XII Model 12 String Solid Body Electric Guitar (1965), made in Italy, black polyester finish, pine body; maple neck with ebony fingerboard, black hard shell case.
This very interesting Phantom XII is one of the earliest of the Italian-made Vox instruments, with serial number from the first series and a neck more like the original English JMI design than the subsequent Eko-made version. Sounds and plays well, a great piece of '60's guitar cool.
Overall length is 41 3/4 in. (106 cm.), 11 in. (27.9 cm.) across at the widest point, and 1 5/8 in. (4.1 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 25 in. (635 mm.). Width of nut is 1 3/4 in. (44 mm.). All original except missing the vibrato handle and spring. Moderate typical Vox checking to the body finish but overall not a lot of wear. A cool example of one of the iconic Vox designs. Excellent Condition.
