Well, I guess I'm gonna find out for myself...

I bought a re-issue Stage Series Washburn A-10 on eBay a while ago, and it came in today. "Some assembly required" as they say. :rolleyes: I haven't owned a trem-equipped axe since my 1986 Fender '62 RI Strat. And the first thing I did with that was to replace the trem with a big block of brass!

I'm in the final stages of moving out of my old place and into a new one, so I won't have time to work on it until next week, but it looks like a real nice piece of kit! I have an original Washburn Stage Series A-20CS hardtail, and this A-10 feels very similar. Some of the cosmetics are a bit nicer, like MOP logo inlay on the headstock. And it's a much deeper blue than the pix on the eBay listing. :cool: The trem is a licensed Floyd Rose, so I may be in for some interesting times.
