    That is actually very cool if you like that kind of thing. Very little more definitive of the style/era.

    Sorry, that isn't helping I know :).

    Only the very bottom-end models. Pretty sure this one will be basswood.

    My dog was dead

    All of the extended-cutaway Washburns were, to my recollection, made in Washburn's USA custom shop (just like the N4s).

    That's actually pretty awesomes.

    BTW, Sammie, my Charvel was out at the "Blues Jam" last weekend (Ok I was trying-failing but trying-to be Jimi Hendrix), so don't limit what guitar you like, by what you play, and vice versa.

    D'know what, I think that's it. It's so of its time. I remember seeing them in magazines in the actual (late) 80's and thinking how OTT they were then. I want to pull it out from under the bed in 20 years time and marvel at it.
