I got this one in for repairs... I found it very curious. Google doesn't give me much... Any of you guys have any info on this "Vantage" guitar? Made in Japan (says so in the sound hole)....

Hi Quarry, If you would post the name of the guitar I might be able to help. I have a couple good reference books on production builders.

We remember the great Vantage guitars from the 70s and 80s. Our friend Keith used to carry them, and they were very well made and "wallet friendly".
This one is new to me. Clearly a great "out of the box" design! Sorry -- I can't help on this one!

Hi Quarry, If you would post the name of the guitar I might be able to help. I have a couple good reference books on production builders. Dane Its a "Vantage" guitar. Model "CL 15 DK". Serial number 83021130. The sticker inside the sound hole also include the phrases: "Made in Japan", and "Sound by Design". Hope you can find something in your books!

It think someone is currently making a guitar with that shape. I saw one last week in my trolling for guitars.

I saw this one in a guitar store in Toronto last spring, I took a picture of it 'cause it was so unique. It is similar to that Vantage but a 12 string .

I believe Vantage had a mention in Guitar Stories vol. 1 or 2.
