VOX
The Vox SSC-55 in classic Goldtop combines timeless single-cut aesthetics with cutting-edge guitar ergonomics and versatile passive electronics.

Experience elite craftsmanship and advanced sonic versatility with the VOX SSC-55 Single-Cutaway Solid Electric Guitar in a stunning, vintage-inspired GoldTop finish. Part of VOX’s acclaimed 55-Series, this instrument redefines modern guitar design by fusing traditional single-cut aesthetics with groundbreaking electronic innovation. Whether you are performing live on stage or recording complex tracks in the studio, the SSC-55 delivers professional-grade performance and an infinitely expansive tonal palette.
Advanced 3-D Body Contouring and Ergonomic Design
Unlike traditional flat or simple carved-top single-cut guitars, the SSC-55 features VOX’s proprietary 3-D body contouring. Meticulously carved from a resonant mahogany body with an arched top, the guitar is ergonomically sculpted to naturally wrap around your body, drastically reducing fatigue during long playing sessions. This deep contouring not only enhances comfort and playability but also optimizes weight distribution and upper-fret access.
Revolutionary CoAxe Pickups with Triple-Voice Versatility
At the heart of the SSC-55's exceptional tone are VOX’s patented CoAxe pickups. Each pickup incorporates dual independent coils that can be instantly reconfigured via a dedicated 3-way switch, granting every pickup three distinct, professional voices:
- Humbucker Mode: Delivers thick, warm, harmonically rich low-end power with exceptional sustain.
- P-90 Soapbar Mode: Yields a punchy, mid-forward bite with plenty of organic snarl.
- Single-Coil Mode: Provides crystal-clear, shimmering highs and bell-like articulation.
