Washburn WG587 porn

donnyb373 · 03-08-2007, 09:14 AM

ok well some of you know I just id that blind jump on the washburn 7 well let me tell you it was the best blind dive I have ever done.

The sound is amazing for the stock pups and the finish has ZERO flaws. The neck is unbaleavably fast, well fast for a 7 string to me, every 7 i have ever picked up seems like im holding a baseball bat as a neck,

the only flaw i currently have is teh actuall frets seem to have very very very very very very rough spots on them, you cant feel them unless you go to bend hard on a string you get a kinda gritty feel, i fixed this by taping the neck up as if i was goin to clean teh neck and stuff, but then got some mothers metal polish and my dremel polishing wheel out, now they are smooth as butter.

Every feed back that i have read online has said the finish was all ....ed up in spots and the guitar sounded horrible, well there full of shit to be hohnest.

final judgment.....this guitar should be sold for far far more than 150 bucks shipped, it should be sold for around 500...th is thing sounds better and plays better than an rg7231

ok now for the porn, sorry guys about the quality i tried my damndest to get some awsome pics

now this one is for the people that have pmed me about the neck thickness, i dont have a mic or anything so i used cig lighters.....lol

i have no idea what happend to this pic

ok guys im done, let me know what you think, and i hope i inspire others to jump on this bandwagon.

rock on!

I never realised they had a fixed bridge version, I've only ever seen them with Floyd's.

7StringofAblicK · 03-08-2007, 09:23 AM

nice...i loved mine while i had it.

it sounded incredible (alder body). Wish i still had it actually, for that reason

NegaTiveXero · 03-08-2007, 09:25 AM

I actually thinking about getting a red one soon.

I've known about both versions, but the fixed bridge is slightly more appealing to me. I would only consider the floyd one just for the single coil.

eaeolian · 03-08-2007, 09:43 AM

I've seriously considered buying one of these to be my "leave at the vacation house" guitar - they've got a pretty high bang-for-the-buck quotient...

Sebastian · 03-08-2007, 09:46 AM

Really nice thing

Brett89 · 03-08-2007, 10:52 AM

Nice! I would like to buy one in the future as my first seven... It's funny that it's in the same price like the RG7321, in hungary...

MAKE A REVIEW!!!

I also have one coming. Hope it's as good as yours.

bostjan · 03-08-2007, 01:18 PM

I have a red one with dimarzios and a floyd rose trem. I play it the most now.

Cigarette lighters are the most precise measurement tools on the face of the planet. I hear they used those while making the space shuttle.

That was the only thing keeping me from getting one. This fixed bridge thing may have just pushed me over the edge.

urklvt · 03-08-2007, 02:12 PM

I like mine. I bought a case for it so I guess it's going to stick around. I'm even leaving the stock pickups alone for now. I'm using it as my "alternate 7 string tunings experiment" guitar.

AbsentCurtis · 03-08-2007, 05:25 PM

I'm glad to see others realizing that these things are far superior in quality that what you are paying for them. The finish on mine is amazing as well, but I have been thinking about refinishing it to a flat grey and putting white pickups in it, just because i have another metallic grey guitar already. I've always seen that the list price is over $900. I know list prices are a crock-o-shit, but does anyone know if these guitars used to sell for more?

i bet they did use them...along with sting and paperclips

skinhead · 03-08-2007, 07:05 PM

Nice, pretty. Congrats, Don!

Shawn · 03-08-2007, 08:35 PM

I don't know what it is about those but i've always liked them. Especially the ones that Toshi Iseda owns. He has some nice ones. I was tempted to pick myself up one of those on ebay recently too. Nice color on that, nice guitar. Congrats!

Abu-Abu · 03-08-2007, 10:03 PM

I own a black one, and I recently put a DiMarzio D-Activator in it.

If I could find one of the floyd versions I'd get one. Would be a nice pair with this, so I could use this one as my alternate tunings 7. I prefer floyd equipped guitars too.

Ryan · 03-09-2007, 12:04 AM

Nice work man.

zimbloth · 03-09-2007, 12:17 AM

I played one of these at GC once (used) and I thought it played pretty well

donnyb373 · 03-09-2007, 12:25 AM

i just read my first post, when i said very veery very rough spots onthe frets i ment very very very very fine rough spots on the frets, like you cant notice when you look at them just when you bend the strings on some of them

xwmucradiox · 03-09-2007, 06:32 PM

Shit theyre $99 now Im buying one and painting it yellow.

Abu-Abu · 03-09-2007, 06:34 PM

Wait wtf...these are $99 now on M123.

http://www.music123.com/Product/Product.aspx?sku=20396

I need to somehow get $100 and get another...just as a backup or something. Mod the hell out of it maybe.

Edit: Aww hell xwmucradiox beat me to it...I was half way through typing it and the doorbell rang, I would have beat him too!

And I need to get a guitar painted flourescent (sp?) orange, or something, would go good with my Bright Yellow Ibanez and my old room...(I had painted it Lime Green, but when my brother moved out I took his room, due to it being like twice the size, and I decided painting this room wasn't worth the effort).

D-EJ915 · 03-09-2007, 06:39 PM

I might have to order me one of these

The highest price I could find was $500 Canadian (from five years ago). The highest recent (before Music123 started blowing them out) price was pretty much $200 (actually about $360 Canadian) from last June. It's currently selling at a number of places for $199 USD. Currently Music123.com is selling it for:

Metalic Gray B-Stock: $170.99
Metalic Gray - $99.99
Black - $140.00
Metalic Red - $99.99
Metalic Gray (open box)- $180.49

kmanick · 03-09-2007, 07:37 PM

what's the difference between these 4 ? B stock , open Box , why are these more?
hmmm $149.00 for a black one?
