VOX VGA-5TD-NAMG VGA-5TD - Natural Maple/Gunmetallic

The VOX Giulietta 5TD is an electric guitar in mini archtop format, with an even narrower body than the 3D model (13mm!), an ideal instrument for contemporary guitarists in search of unique sounds. This guitar combines the charm of the traditional archtop with modern ergonomics and an expanded sound palette thanks to VOX's innovative AREOS-D preamplification and modeling system.

The Giulietta 5TD pushes the boundaries of the traditional archtop guitar. With its new compact body and sophisticated electronics, it offers enhanced versatility and features that are just as interesting for recording as for live performance. The AREOS-D modeling system opens the door to a vast array of tones.

The AREOS-D system on the VOX Giulietta 5TD offers no fewer than 18 acoustic and electric tone models. This advanced system combines a magnetic pickup for authentic electric sounds, piezo sensors for realistic traditional instrument modeling, a powerful DSP for precise sound rendering, and intuitive controls for a wide range of settings.

At the heart of the Giulietta 5TD lies the AREOS-D Digital Modeling System module. Offering a wealth of electric, acoustic and even synthesizer modeling, VOX presents a powerful tool for musicians' creative expression, whether on stage or in the studio.

The piezo-equipped tune-O-matic contributes to the realism of acoustic modeling, while the XLM humbucker guarantees authentic, well-dynamic electric grain.

To solve the resonance problem often encountered on piezo-equipped archtop guitars, VOX has developed an easy-to-use, removable mute (supplied with the guitar) to purify your sound of unwanted vibrations between bridge and tailpiece.

A compact format for a powerful sound!

Traditional archtop guitars have a unique look that always makes an impact, but many guitarists are held back by their imposing bodies and feedback problems at high volumes. By skilfully combining a narrow body with a cutaway and a standard pitch neck, VOX has created a modern instrument that can appeal to all guitarists, whatever their style.

A multitude of sounds in one guitar

The AEROS-D system optimized for the Giulietta 5TD opens the doors to a wide choice of tones :

acoustics such as guitar-type models, but also banjo, sitar or resonator, whose realism is optimized by the piezo

electrics, thanks to the XLM humbucker, with single or dual mic presents

synthetic, with great expressiveness thanks to excellent tracking

AREOS-D module: intuitive and accomplished functionality

Hours of painstaking development have resulted in a comprehensive yet easy-to-use system to unleash the full potential of your music in a fluid, intuitive experience.

In addition to ultra-realistic electric and acoustic guitar sounds, the AEROS-D system embeds different effects depending on the instrument chosen: overdrive for electric models, reverb for acoustic models. Adjust the desired amount of effect in one movement, switch from a clean sound to crunchy or "High-Gain", all while playing, without going through any other equipment, pedal or computer.
