Ed, this is similar to yours. This is a Vanguard Artist with P-90s.-- Darwin

Where can I find more information about this model?

The body looks remarkably like a PRS Santana or McCarty (full disclosure: I lusted for PRS before I got my G&L).

Rob, these were only made for a short time but the Hamer American artist has basically the same model in p90s. It is a sweet guitar for someone who likes p90s. Also quite light and very resonant.-- Darwin

The shadowed interior makes a good case for a finished hollow body interior.

It tastefully matches the hardware on this guitar but I suspect black f-holes would support any exterior.

Michael, The interior of the guitar is natural. It only looks dark kbecause of the lighting. Thanks-- Darwin

Yes, that is why i described it as "the shadowed interior" rather than suggesting it was actually finished with a color.

I hope you have all of these guitars photographed and listed on your insurance policy.
