1965 Vox Phantom Mark III UK Prototype

This is a very very rare early production Vox Phantom Mark III “Prototype” made in 1965 in England by Jennings Musical Industries with some Rock & Roll celebrity roots. These UK made early guitars are some of the most desirable vintage guitars from the UK. This Teardrop guitar was made famous by Brian Jones of the Stones who played an infamous White 3 pickup Mark VI similar to this Mark III. Its 1st owner was Denis Payton, the Sax player (also played guitar) in the Dave Clark V Band. It was made unlike any production Mark VI having 3 pickups that have separate bezels, a metal compensated bridge, the truss rod adjusts at the heel of the neck, sporting a Hank Marvin endorsed Vibrato & wearing its signature UK metal pickgard. It’s got the coolest Vox stamped 6-in-tuners tuners w/a serial # stamped just below w/the Vox “Made in England” sticker. It’s just out of a collection that the last owner had since 1978. It’s a once in a lifetime chance to own 1 of the most desirable iconic guitars ever produced. It’s excellent overall & comes with/some case candy in its original square hard case.
