Re: Washburn Guitars
i want an N4 in a bad way!
from my experience, Washburns' imported stuff is crappy but the REAL USA stuff is nice. we were a Washburn dealer and had tons of problems with their imported guitars, especially the acoustics. they would send the wrong colors and lots of stuff that shouldn't have made it past QC - even for inexpensive guitars they were very shoddy and i am being very lenient.
they have gotten little greedy IMHO as the N4 went up in price $500 in one year. ($1699 - $2199). how can anyone justify such a price hike?! they use to send it in a very nice case and i think they now ship it out in a molded, shaped case. i can't justify why they decided to raise the price sooo much.
