After Uncle Matt, Vantages were made by Kasuga until 1990. I dont think many Kasuga Vantage guitars left Japan though. The brand was later sold I believe and production was moved to Korea. Its interesting to note that the Ricos were initially involved with the Korean Vantages and were planning something with the brand. A few models did get released that were designed by them............

Thats because most guitars by most companies are trash. Most companies produce 100 budget guitars for every quality guitar they produce. Vantage made some great quality guitars, but only during a certain time period. That time period pretty well came to an end 20 years ago...........
