And when your message is rock, the most power weapon is a Vantage guitar. Because the Vantage guitar speaks rock.

The Vantage 650 has two specially-designed MF-450 pick-ups which deliver a sizzling sound that penetrates. Its coil-tap and pick-up selector
enable you to achieve a wide range of toneal colors. The 650’s neck provides the optimum in playability and intonation. And the dense, ash body
of the Vantage 650 yields greater sustain and poser.

The Vantage 650B bass guitar is designed to provide the ultimate in punch and drive. Advanced technology results ina neck which eliminates dead
spots. The 650B delivers crisp, pointed attacks. And its contoured, maple/walnut body ensurees rich sound and exeptional playability.
