Washburn N4 Vintage

With the rumours of Extreme, one of my favourite bands when I was growing up, touring Australia, I had a look for some info on his Washburn guitars. I found this great video on the newly released N4 Vintage which is a replica of the guitar he used back in the 90's.

I didn't realise that they had expanded so far with the N Series, now with seven currently produced models. But what it brought me back to most was the P Series, in particular the P4 Deluxe, which Nuno also played.

Built with a mahogany body, with a flamed maple top, the P4 Deluxe also featured Washburn's (then) exclusive sound chambers, making it lightweight and extremely resonant. Loaded with Seymour Duncan classic '59 and custom humbuckers, the tone was to die for.It also came with Deluxe Schaller locking tuners and a fine-tuning tailpiece giving total control over tuning with the added bonus of a graphite nut. It could be found in a variety of Burst colors, including; Wineburst, Cherry Sunburst, Blueburst, Honeyburst, Coffeeburst, Tobaccoburst, and more.

Washburn have since pulled these from their line up, which is a real shame. They were a fantastic guitar, and if I ever saw one I think I'd have to buy it straight away.

    Oh they were. I even got to play one once. It had a baby powder blue finish that really showed off the lines. Like I said, I would love to get my hands one.
