Well mate, between 200-300 quid, it's become second to my kramer striker loaded with a cold sweat and i hardly ever play it!!! However, i've been informed that it's worth nearly 4 times that!!! All offers are welcome!!!

Cheers, Chris!

what's the model name/spec on it?

Washburn KC-70V, made in 1988, i don't know what wood, washburn never got back to me!!!

however, the improvements on it are spectacular. same locking trem nuno bettencourt uses on some of his models, and has a kent armstrong mother bucker in the bridge, as i couldnt afford bare knuckles at the time!!!!!!!!

Post by: ChrisB619 on January 28, 2006, 07:06:09 PM: This guitar is now confusing me, i contacted washburn again but not even they know what it is!!!!!

All other KC's i have ever seen have had KC series at the top of the headstock, but this has chicago series!

However, good news is that as this has no serial number that i can humanly see, they say it appears to be from the USA custom shop! Sweet!!!

So....does anybody know what it is????
