Van Zandt makes arguably the nicest Fender copies in all of Japan. They use a very thin all-nitrocellulose finish that no other company uses. They are masters of custom finishes, as each guitar they make just radiates mojo. Van Zandt, under PGM, makes only Fender replicas and offer Jazzmasters (JMV series), Stratocasters (STV series), Telecasters (TLV series), Precision Basses (PBV series) and Jazz Basses (JBV series). They feature 3 different neck types, indicated in the model number, for example, as STV-R1, STV-R2 or STV-R3). All models share the same unbelievably-gorgeous finishes, either in thin lacquer, or in thick lacquer. The thin lacquer finishes are more popular and prettier, and so are a little more prevalent in the market, if you can find a place that even has one.

Body: Alder
Neck: Maple with Madagascar Rosewood
22 Frets
Scale 25.5”
Radius 8.25”
Nut: Oil Finished Bone
Pickups: VanZandt Blues
Finish: All Nitrocellulose Lacquer

Asking $1850.00 shipped and insured to the lower 48

The instrument is in mint condition, and has really been babied. I'm really much more interested in a Tele style guitar, preferably another VanZandt!


STV, TLV, JMV indicates the model of guitar, R1, R2, R3 indicates the wooden combination body/neck. A STV R1 is a Stratocaster with a body in ash and a neck in maple. R2 = body alder/neck rosewood on maple. R3 = body ash/neck rosewood on maple. There is two profile of neck, SOFT V (R1) or U (R2, R3).

Guitar ships with very well made VanZandt soft case.
