Washburn N4 versus Washburn NX3
Has anyone tried out one of the NX3's? I've always wanted an N4 and the NX3 looks just like it. The only differences I note are no pu mounting rings, an additional tone knob and rosewood fingerboard instead of ebony(what a shame.) Of course it's an import whereas the N4 was USA made, and the trem isn't the fantastic Schaller Floyd that was on the N4. The NX6 doesn't have a Floyd so it's out and a new N4 is out of price range.
I can't find a dealer anywhere that has one, and am seriously considering buying one site unseen. At $600 it's cheaper than a secondhand N4, but not by a whole lot.
Can anyone who has played both give me advise on if I should go for it, or should I hold my breath for a good used N4.
Thanks,
Kyle
