Washburn WG587

Hi everyone,

What are your opinions about this guitar. It has very very nice price for a 7 string. I found it very comfortable for that price range. Is there anyone who owns (or owned) it? Any better experiances?

I played one at Guitar Center recently. I thought it played pretty well and sounded great considering it was $199. I'd imagine it would be a nice guitar to experiment with pickups on or just have as a backup.

Nice avatar! I have one of the first run WG 587's in metallic red. For the price, the guitar owns. The headstock is a little bit massive. I would change the strings and the pickups ASAP, but you may like them stock.

Good luck!

Also, you may want to search this site for other's opinions on this guitar, as they've been posted before. The search button is the third from the right on the site toolbar.
