Found the pics on Google... 

Fully understandable, since i take every chance i can to show them.

Quite the coincidence we posted the same picture at the same time! 😀

I have a deep love for double P.

And Vantage basses!

Hence my six Vantage VP710B.

Matsumoku basses from late 70's early 80's.

Edit: just saw that TheGreek posted a pic of my collection...😎

I find that the 710b's which is almost the same bass have quite a neckdive.
The DiMarzio clones are IMO more "mid-rangy" and don't sound anything like a P.
But my 710's have double P's...

But i think Vantages are beautiful instruments. Well crafted and sound awesome.
That's why i have six of them!

They are old japanese basses from the Matsumoko-factory.
Great craftmanship and the twin P-pickups are DiMarzio clones.
These are from 1980, 1981 and 2 x 1982.

I'm as happy as can be.
After"settling" for Vantages that feels and plays like one that was stolen in -91,
i found an auction for one IDENTICAL to the stolen one!
I was the only bidder so naturally i won.
That takes my total up to four Vantage 710B's!
