Main Features

The VOX Giulietta VGA-5TPS/3PS is an easy-to-play medium-scale acoustic-electric guitar with
the VOX Hybrid Bridge and the VOX String Mute. This guitar features the VOX Super Capacitor
Preamp System, and can be connected to a guitar amp or PA system and played for up to 10
continuous hours after being charged via USB.
VOX Hybrid Bridge
The VOX Hybrid Bridge was developed to impart tonal brilliance and sustain for added versatility
and character. We set out to keep the warm character and classic looks of archtop construction
while adding the ringing sustain and bell-like harmonics that make flattop guitars a favorite with
live and recording artists worldwide.
The heart of the VOX Hybrid Bridge is the bonding of resonant wood with the clarity and defi-
nition of aluminum. The bridge imparts the Giulietta with rich, harmonically complex overtones
and flattop-like sustain. Great care was taken to minimize handling noise and booming.
VOX String Mute
Archtop guitars suffer from a phenomenon known as over-ring, when the strings from the back
edge of the saddles to the tailpiece "ring" whenever the player strums the guitar. The VOX
String Mute clips onto the strings behind the bridge and uses special pads to quiet the over-ring
for pure guitar tone.
