V stands for "Vintage" in our world. The Z7V offers the same great features as the standard Z7, but for flavor we’ve added the sleek F-Hole to the chambered mahogany body. The new Tobacco burst finish doesn’t hurt either. The staple features include 3A quilt maple top, chambered mahogany body, abalone "Sword of the Sprit" script on the back, push/pull coil tap, factory installed straplocks, and of course ever Sozo model now ships in a deluxe fitted hardshell case, at no extra charge!
