100 % Authentic or Money Back Guaranteed
The APC-1 is a unique speaker-equipped guitar that follows the shape of the legendary guitars released by VOX in the 1960s.
It is equipped with an analog circuit amp that utilizes VOX's accumulated amp-making technologies, and also incorporates the rhythm machine functions and effects used in VOX's digital modeling amp, VOX MINI GO. This guitar can be called the culmination of VOX's expertise in combining analog and digital technology, which has been abundantly incorporated into previous VOX products.
Since it is equipped with all the functions necessary to produce sound, there is no need to prepare an amp or effectors, and this guitar can be played by itself. It can be easily used in the living room, outdoors, or as a travel guitar, and can be taken anywhere.
The amplifier section, the key to the sound, was redesigned to match the APC-1 speaker unit, based on the legendary tone of the VOX AC30. For this amplifier section, we have focused on analog circuitry to achieve a full-fledged sound. The multi-stage gain circuitry perfectly reproduces the complex distortion found in tube amplifiers. The amp-like control section allows for a wide range of sound creation from clean to crunch and drive sounds. Another unique feature of this guitar is the GAIN knob, which allows for easy-to-use overdrive distortion sounds, rather than the fuzzy distortion that is common on guitars with speakers.

【Wide-directional speakers are used.】
The Tectonic Audio Labs wide-directional speaker has a full range of 100Hz - 20kHz, and its wide-directional, 180° sound dispersal feature allows the sound to be heard even when the speaker is not in front of the player. This makes it easy for the player to hear the sound, making it the perfect speaker for guitars. In addition, guitars with speakers until now have had weaknesses such as “insufficient bass” and “easy feedback,” but by installing a passive radiator in a newly designed guitar-specific enclosure, the sound quality is far better than that of a guitar with ordinary speakers. In addition, the speaker unit has been made seismically isolated, making it resistant to feedback, which is a drawback of guitars with speakers. This is truly a next-generation speaker-equipped guitar that achieves both a well-balanced, wide-range output from bass to treble while at the same time preventing feedback in the enclosure.
【Equipped with effectors and rhythm machines】
The effects and rhythm machines are based on the technology of the VOX MINI GO series digital modeling amplifier. Effects include chorus, tremolo, delay, and reverb. Tap tempo is also available for delay and reverb. Rhythm machines are available in 11 genres including metronome. There are 3 variations for each genre, and a total of 33 rhythm patterns are built in.
【Vintage Refined Shape】
The body design is reminiscent of the vintage VOX guitars released in the 1960s, and is one of the main features of this guitar. The head shape is also newly designed by rearranging the product from that time.
