THE GUITAR SOLD, THANK YOU VERY MUCH
Nuno Bettencourt, the guitar wizard to fronted the legendary Boston funky metal outfit EXTREME, co-designed this super axe with Washburn. Back from 1989, Nuno came up with his first N series guitar N1, and later N2, Korean made N3, and the most advanced and famous N4. To add to the already over whelming N family, Nuno also designed the N5 and N6 in recent years. However, the N4 remains as his main axe up til this day. Famous for his fast lighing and choppy funky licks, you can hear some N4 actions in “Get The Funk Out”, “Cupids Dead”, “Peacemaker Die…”
Nuno is also famous for penning and playing the #1 song More Than Words.

Question…
Did you ask Washburn to custom make these specs?
michael // May 3, 2007 at 12:26 am
this guitar was custom-ordered by a friend in US, i did not deal with Washburn.
leh ma…. just now i took out to polish and play play… so 不舍得 to sell…
kanne…
Rossie // May 3, 2007 at 10:38 am
Then don’t lo…
If you still want to sell it, but not in an urgent need to cash, I suggest you to let the word out, and wait… A serious buyer will eventually come knocking on your door… It’s only a matter of time…
Doesn’t it really hurt your fingers playing this guitar?
michael // May 3, 2007 at 12:47 pm
