| I dont usualy rate washburn, but that one looks quite tasty, would'nt mind a play of that myself, even has top quality Elixir strings, i would say that is a bargain, go for it. |

All the Washburns I've ever tried have been excellent guitars. I even play one myself these days. |

The listing was ended early, but is it possible that you put up the wrong link? I saw no mention of the H+K amp, and the start price was $499.
I must say, for $499, that looked rather nice. I have bought from Warpdrive on eBay (they only had about 2,000 feedback then - now it's 26,000 and rising ) and the item (a Washburn 5-string bass neck) was sent over to me in Blighty with no problems. I can vouch for them as sellers. |

| it ended early cause i bought the guitar and it was not a good deal. the fretboard nearest the pups was warped bad from the 10th fret down.i took it to a luthier and he told me $250 to dress the frets and do a pro setup on it so i sent it back and they sent me a brand new x50 pro which is in perfect condition |

| Thanks for the update, Dreamline. Glad you got some CustServ out of them. Are you happy with that replacement x50 or would you have rather kept your money? |

| Puts me off Washburn when you jear stories like that, where the hell is there quality control? needs a fret dress? so the guy who did the last check in the factory thought it was OK to send a guitar out in that condition? |
