Description

The APC-1 Blue Metallic is Vox's short-scale travel guitar with built-in speakers, amp section, effects section, and drum machine, featuring a design that harks back to the past with the typical shape of Vox guitars from the 1960s. It is built with a Poplar body, Maple neck, and Purple Heart fretboard. Thanks to the control panel, you can manage the sound with gain, tone, volume, and boost controls, activate the rhythm section with 33 rhythmic patterns, insert effects such as chorus, delay, reverb, and tremolo, and listen to everything directly from the integrated Tektonic Audio speaker.

Overview of the Vox APC-1 Blue Metallic

The APC-1 is a speaker-equipped guitar that adopts the iconic shape of VOX guitars from the sixties. It features an amplifier with an analog circuit that utilizes VOX's extensive technology for amplifier sound reproduction and a rhythm machine that uses VOX MINI GO, the digital modeling amplifier. This guitar is equipped with all the necessary functions for sound production. Without the need for an amplifier or additional effects, it can be played alone and is suitable for various environments such as the living room, outdoors, or as a travel guitar.

Integrated Speaker

The guitar incorporates Techtonic Audio's wide-direction speakers, allowing you to hear the sound even when not directly in front of it. This feature makes it particularly suitable for guitarists. To address previous weaknesses of speaker-equipped guitars, such as "insufficient bass" and "easy feedback," a newly designed enclosure with a passive radiator significantly improves sound quality. The seismically isolated speaker unit also minimizes feedback, overcoming this common drawback. It truly represents the new generation of guitars with integrated speakers.

Effects and Drum Machine

The APC-1 includes various effects such as chorus, tremolo, delay, and reverb. Delay and reverb also feature tap tempo functions. The rhythm machine offers 11 genres, including a metronome, and each genre offers 3 variations, totaling 33 integrated rhythmic patterns.
