Quiet?! Hell, I think everybody else has found a life, eh?! :hyper:

Gee... that's a nice load of Vantages there, mate; 912 seems a bit lonely so you better send it to me! :D

You need some more Avengers.....

Really nice shots Johann. Very creative! I like it a lot.

Yeah, it's just a few of us left hanging around, along with the porn spammers. :roll:
We're like the die hard hangers-on after a big event, aimlessly wandering through the post party debris. Where have all the Mats fans gone? *sigh*

I've always liked the one up top with the cream knobs. Is it a "Witch"?
I remember drooling over that brochure as a kid. . . :(

The one with cream knobs (and cream trussrod cover) is a "Mystic", Jorg! A pre 4/80 (old logo) VP 700, set neck. I'd like to have the "Witch" (VS 600) from 1979/80 too, but Vantage guitars seem to have vanished here in Eutope. There's nothing interesting to find since ages....besides from overpriced offers :evil:

Very nice collection.

You know, if you can get a pic from directly above, it would make a great clock face. :)

Put the 12-string at noon, of course.
