Hi.

So, i've been busy tweaking and playing my Avenger 325 and man what a great guitar. So nice in fact, i had to get another Vantage!

This time i got a VP795 1980, in just about the same great condition as the Avenger. Only had to replace the bridge, found a Gotoh
that fit perfect. Also put a Seymour Duncan Nazgul in the bridge and 011-070 strings in b tuning (short scale baritone, or something).

It sounds and plays great, just as expected. These are awesome guitars for no money at all, and i'm already looking for another one. :love:
