The guitar is build in 1995 in Korea. It has 24 jumbo frets. The guitar has 1 humbucker and 2 single coils. It has one volume en 2 toen knobs. In that time I believe Vantage use Seymour Duncan humbucker. The style is like a stratocaster. It has a good Floyd rose bridge.

Sound : 10
I played the guitar over a Line 6 spider. When I first played it the sound is between a Fender and a Ibanez. But it can also rock like hell.The five way selector is top. The guitar is not noisy.

The guitar is now 10 years old and de finish is perfect. The pickups are well adjusted.

The guitar is a good investment. You don't see them very much. But who sells this fantastic guitar.

I think this gitar was made in 1995 its not "very" old . When you hold this gitar if feels very good like the ibanez RG series . Made in Korea 24 frets , medium neck . etc

Sound : 10
This gitar suits my music style perfectly i play mostly accoustic or hardcoremetal music . I have had allot of gitars and this is the less noise ive ever heard , i hade a boss noisegate for my other gitars but i dont need it now . If you like muting and heave sound or bright accoustic sound this is the gitar you need .

This is an early, mid-90's amazement! Nothing can compare to it! Its got mega high output h/s/s configuration(custom). It is comfortable to mute and play. It has a floating tremolo that feels natural with the right arm. It has a bolt on neck with string through body design. Metallic black fiish, custom tuners, medium neck, 24 jumbo frets, graphite nut, made in Korea.

Sound : 10
This will satisfy most music styles. Ive used it on a line six spider and a small crate and it delivers the same punch. Its surprisingly quiet, but still has a full sound. Tons of tonal variety(5-way switch). i love the sound.

Action, Fit, & Finish : 10
Absolutely perfect except the notches on the nut had to be sanded down a smidge. I took it to a master repairman to look at it. HE said it was the highest out of factory guitar he'd ever seen! And it was used!!!

Reliability/Durability : 7

Search the world for one of these. It's unbelievable. It may not be a big brand name, but its a great guitar.
