The solid-body 'Mark' series soon expanded to include a full family of 6, 12, and 9-string guitars as well as a bass. Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones got one of the first hand-built prototypes, and the exposure the model received in his hands in 1964-5 was quite enough to quickly make it the most sought-after Vox guitar, especially in the US. The teardrop-shaped Mark series was originally a stylistic outgrowth of the trapezoidal-bodied Phantom line indeed, the earliest model was called the Phantom Mk.III. By the time Thomas Organ in California took over American distribution of JMI's products in 1965, nearly all Vox guitars sold in the US would be of Italian parentage.

So, instead of expanding their meagre guitar-making facilities, Jennings outsourced the great bulk of instrument production to the Italian firm. Vox's parent company JMI (Jennings Musical Industries) in Dartford, Kent was already overstretched by 1964 supplying Vox amplifiers to the UK and world markets. Like most Vox-branded instruments sold in the US, this one was built at the Eko factory in Recanati, Italy.
