Two reasons for selling
1- I just can not get use to the neck profile as I am used to slim D profile necks and the V neck just feels weird to me.
2- I am strapped for cash and still owe money on a CC for this one.
Bottom line I need to sell her.
Most of you guys know the story I bought this one as a NOS in January from a Dealer in Gadsden Alabama. It was bought off the floor from the 2000 NAMM show and was the Washburn booth guitar. SN is 0007002.
When I got it home I discovered that evidently the guitar was assembled with the paint still tacky. After 9 or so years in the back of that shop in the case all the control covers were stuck tightly IN the paint and would not come off without damaging the finish so---. It went back to Washburn under warranty for the repair.
They shipped it back unannounced and underpacked it sat on my front porch for ?? how long and the guitar was damaged in transit.
It went back to Washburn the second time and this time Chewy who did all of Dimes repair work personally did the repair. I was a full factory warranty repair and refinish. I got it back last month and it's set up to perfection. The color is different a DEEP piano black now and the silver is brighter it's a STUNNING looker. NO scratches NO dings it's a true NOS (as of January it had been unsold) factory fresh 3-ST Stealth.
PM or email to rutledge8021@bellsouth.net all offers over $4K.
