The Vox V205 Ace Guitar


The Vox Ace guitar was offered on page 10 of the Jennings Musical Instruments "1964-65 Catalogue" seen at left. A color reprint of this catalog is available at North Coast Music. The catalog described the Ace guitar as follows:

"An attractively countoured instrument designed to fit the guitarist snugly. Made from selected lightweight hardwood with red, white, or sunburst mirror finish. Internally reinforced rounded Rosewood fingerboard. Fitted with two single pole pickups., flick action tone change, and compensating bridge unit incorporating smooth action tremolo unit."

The Ace is one of a series of student grade models produced by Vox in the UK by Stuart Darkins and Co., a furniture maker in Shoeburyness.

The 1965 JMI Vox price list indicates that the Ace guitar had a British retail price of about 36 pounds.
