Wish it were mine,,,,,,,, although I don't love the inlays I wouldn't have let it hold me back either.
Everything else though is yummy!

Agreed...not my first choice in inlays, but I'm warming up to them

Re: Interesting & Unexpected NGD!

As an update, I did manage to find examples of the regular production version that Washburn mentioned!

Apparently, they made just 100, possibly fewer, of the "production" version, which is a good thing because they really dumbed down and dulled out what was already a pretty basic/barebones guitar!

No top contouring, a boring painted finish, no custom shop pickup, ugly offset bullet hole inlays and the headstock actually says "OUTLAW by Washburn", which is tacky as hell for a USA guitar!

Here it is, the ill-fated production version:

And the lights go down
And you might be near the end

Re: Interesting & Unexpected NGD!

Reminds me of a BCRich Gunslinger in so many ways...
The strings wrapped around the wrong side doesn't do any justice to that guitar, and it only draws your eyes closer to the cheap wood burning that was done.
Nice score by the way! Very neat guitar that has its own story and place in history.

Yah prototype is way cooler, even if I'm not a fan of the bullet inlays.

Re: Interesting & Unexpected NGD!

That production one.. The logo makes it look like its an offshoot brand. like LYON by Washburn... Awful there .. the bullet hole inlays wouldnt be bad if they hadnt done such a crappy bullet on 12.. Washburn seems to shoot themselves in the foot. They can make amazing guitars in the US Custom shop, and then make such cheese in production.
