My first guitar was a Vox Mark IX that I bought in the Summer of 1966.
It was pulled from a guitar show by Washington Music. The only one in the countryat that time was Black. The neck was maple with a rosewood board and not painted black.
I still have it. I had to replace one pickup with another vox pickup and the case had to be repaired when the movers dropped it. Still sounds great!
I never liked the sunburst finishes from vox. The yellow color of the 3 color sunburst always had a greenish cast to my eyes.
best, michael
Have FUN with the process
