I just bought one of these VS-16 and also from cash converters, Made in Korea
looks well made, by now all the timber is aged , replaced the strings
altho a new bridge and nut could be replaced, but plays well
sounds good, curved sound box a good second guitar..
Looks like a VS 15.Same look as the one i bought last week at Cash convertors,Brisbane,Qld Australia mate.
Hope this helps
BTW I payed $115.00 au
Looks and sounds great still.Tho I need to replace the strings as they are old and a little rusty.
Anyway mate,I hope this helps. Cheers: Ian
I own a Vantage VS-30 with Maple Body and Walnut Arm, bought in Dun Laoughaire, Co. Dublin, Ireland at Waltons Music around 1992. (Serial Number: 9201000088) Made in Korea, Hand Crafted Guitar
It looks to me like a Vantage VS-15. I have one and it looks quite similar. The tag on the inside of the guitar should have the model # on the top.
Hi, Could Anyone Tell Me About My Vantage DL 205 Sunburst.
It Appears To Be A Les Paul Set Neck Copy.

Thank-You

I’ve got a Vantage VA 12, serial #8912000002. I can’t seem to find anything about it anywhere!!! Anyone got anything good or bad to say about it?? maybe tell me what its worth?

I also own a Vantage VA-12 guitar, and it plays nicely. When I first saw it, it had a damaged neck at the shoe area. I removed the fret board and the complete neck, made the repairs and put it back together again. It’s played nicely ever since, and has a good flat neck all up the fret board. I noticed a new VA-12 being sold at a music store near me, and it was being sold around the price of $400 CDN., and that was without any type of preamp/pickup installed on it. I laid out another $200 plus dollars and put a sound preamp/pickup on it, and boy did that bring out the sounds through my amp. Nice guitar, soundly made, but watch out for over tightening the strings, as this will damage the neck at the shore area. This is what caused the damage to the one I now own, and bought cheap for that very reason. Luckily, I know how to repair and maintain my own guitars correctly. Cheers Wayne.
wiring help, any diagrams???
If you ever got yours straightened out, I need a pic. and/ or wiring diagram. I just picked up a very abused one, 82 I think and it’s a mess. Thanks, John

I just found the same guitar at yard sale, did you ever found any info on yours. I cannot find any on internet.
I want to know how much it’s worth, and basically everything about it, because this was given to us when we moved into our house. We know nothing about it.
Im restoring a 1990 BC RICH ST.
I want to replace the stock humbucker with a dimarzio super distortion. The 2 other single coils I have no idea what to use??
Hi, I’ve come to inherit this guitar, it has a beautiful hummingbird and butterfly "front" whatever it’s called…but the bottom has an extra point which makes it look like the "dove" series… then to top it off, it says "univox"….and the label on the inside is gone, it’s in really nice shape. I have never been able to find anything on that. Any comments or help:]
I bought my Vantage in the early eighties. I think it is a VP-820, but can find an exact match to mine, ie., mine has all brass fittings (incl. nut & bridge). It also has an active circuit.I now wish to sell it, as it is no longer played. Any info on it or offers would be much appreciated. Many thanks, David.

I have recently purchased a Vantage ‘Ghost’ (a copy of the Gibson "The Paul") and have loaded it with new Seymour Duncans but find the tinny high end remains. Any suggestions of any mods I could do that might help, short of experimenting with different strings?
Hi, just bought a very strange acoustic Vantage Guitar. Saw it, bought it. I can’t find any information on or about it, because it has a really nice rosetta and no sound hole. Perhaps you can help me finding some informations about it. I think it’s a really cheap guitar, because of this Hi-Z/Lo-Z outputs I only know by Stagg or something like that. But netherless I would be very happy, when you could help me…
Pictures are to find @ http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=003&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&viewitem=&item=130052094121&rd=1&rd=1

As with all guitar makers… they have low end and high end models. Unfortunately, you won’t find much info on Vantage guitars online. And since many shops employ people that can’t really spot a good guitar, because they don’t recognize the brand they assume it’s a cheap guitar.
I picked up my Vantage guitar VS-25SCE in a small guitar shop in Vancouver BC Canada, in the 90’s run by a fellow who played for many popular bands along the west coast down into California. He had all kinds of makes of electric and bass guitars, but only sold Vantage acoustics, simply cause that’s what he loved. He grabbed a guitar off the wall, played it and I bought it. I paid nearly $600 for mine. It’s a solid cedar top with beautiful accents front and back. It sounds awesome still and rarely ever tune it. The pick up isn’t great, but with the right off-guitar mixers and/or pedals, it can sound great too. Unplugged, I would match it up against my friend $1500 Martin any day. So, don’t underestimate your find, if it sounds good and you enjoy playing it, it’s worth more than you could sell it for.

I have the same problem, did you find a solution? what I was thinking of doing was removing the bridge, getting a generic one from a music store and mounting it right to the top in place of.
let me know what you came up with.

I have had a Vantage bass for about 8 years now that my dad bought for me used. The problem is, the bridge is cracked so bad that it wont hold the D string anymore. Anyone have any info on where to get a new one?? Even one that would work in the original’s place would be great. Thanks!
