Vox SDC-1 Mini Short-Scale Electric Guitar, White
The SDC-1 mini gives you the sound and feel of a full sized electric guitar in a format small enough to keep with you. The point of difference is that it holds standard tuning and standard tension despite the short scale, so it does not feel like a toy under the fingers.
- Scale: 479mm short scale
- Tuning and tension: the same as a standard guitar when strung with .012 to .054 strings
- Tuners: high gear ratio tuning heads designed for short scale instruments
- Neck: narrower width suits children and adults with small hands
- Pairing: works well with an amPlug for a complete travel setup
- Finish: White
Take it to the park, on the train or on tour. It is the guitar that gets played because it is the one that happens to be within reach when the idea arrives.
The Vox SDC-1 mini is built to make guitar a part of daily life rather than something that only happens when you are at home with the case open. It provides the sound and feel of a full sized electric guitar in a compact format.
Short scale, standard feel
The scale length is 479mm, well short of a standard electric. Despite that, the SDC-1 plays with the same tuning and tension as a standard guitar when it is strung with .012 to .054 strings, so your fretting hand is not relearning anything when you switch back.
Tuning that holds up
Short scale instruments are notoriously fiddly to tune, because a small movement at the machine head is a large movement in pitch. The SDC-1 uses high gear ratio tuning heads designed specifically for short scale guitars, which makes tuning both easier and more accurate.
A travel setup
Pair it with an amPlug and the whole rig fits in a bag. That combination is what makes it practical to play at the park, on the subway or on a tour bus.
Smaller hands
Thanks to the neck width and the overall size, the SDC-1 mini also works well for children or for adults with small hands, which makes it a sensible first electric as well as a travel instrument.
