hey does anyone know what kind of Washburn this is?







the only thing it says regarding model is presumably the L II on the truss rod cover. It's made in Korea, and the pickups are Washburn W 621 (N) and W 623 (B).

I'm trying to find out the value of it imo.

Nevermind, that's a P. Washburn P2.

it's a pretty piece with a really worrying name :/ never liked it for that reason

While we're talking Ravel, this is probably my favourite piece OAT.

picked up my strat today!









it's purrrrrdy. Beatiful, just like Michelle, thus the name, Michelle







plays like a ****ing dream. I forgot how ****ing awesome having a whammy bar is.


Also got a hard shell fender case for it (came with a gig bag [wtf???]) and a hard shell G&G case for my Jaguar.

From the look of it probably under $200, they seemed to be going for about that years ago and the used market is just so much worse now. Lower end model, Korean made + ugly as sin (imo).

Where'd you come across it? The only time I've seen one in person it was someone's kids' guitar they wanted set up. It was heavy and nothing to write home about finish-wise but played & sounded reasonably okay. Kind of a weird neck joint and the electronics were predictably terrible.

So then they didn't have this color Strat in stock?

kind of looks like mine. but higher quality i am sure.

these texas special single coils are awesome imo. This thing quacks like a duck, chimes like a bell, and crunches like ... something that crunches imo

[Gonzirra]

i have the same set in mine actually, i got them in a trade for basically nothing and just swapped out the covers for parchment colored ones to match

Now i just need to play the hell out of it for 40 years so I can get this going on

Part of my settlement imo. Got some money, that guitar and a little Vox DA20. The guitar plays really well actually. Pickups are horrible though obv. I might be able to get a hundred out of it imo.

They did not, and that's pretty sick imo.

Did you swap out the pickups in that or are those the stock single coils iyo? Hard to tell from the pic.

They're pretty ****ing great imo. I always thought single coils sucked, but man these are awesome. The hum can kinda suck, but ****, humbuckers can't match that tone and you can get hum cancelling in two positions so it's all good imo.
