From a catalog:
Vantage Avenger AV325 Series
The consummate rock & roll guitar in terms of power, tonal flexibility and a dynamic “look”,
the Avenger AV325 solid body features a contoured natural ash body for strength, brilliance
and playing comfort.
Two opencoil Vantage #450PF humbucking
pickups generate plenty of raw, richly detailed power while individual puch/pull switches
built into each tone controll activate special coil tap circiuts for that biting, razor-edged
sound demanded by many of today’s guitarists.
The Avenger AV325 Series guitar is available in a choice og tough and
lustrous translucent color finishes.
