************* SOLD ****************
Ok Friends –
This one is quite easy.
This is the 2009 Winter NAMM Washburn USA Custom Shop Scott Ian Signature ‘V’ done by Chewy in Ian’s ‘Blood Splatter’ finish –
It’s Gruesome – It’s Bold – It’s Brutal – It’s Scott Ian! Yes, Scott Ian, the Anthrax Great!
This one has been tucked away at Washburn. Now it’s available and it’s available from Washburn’s Largest Custom Dealer – Boogie Street.
Of course these guitars are no longer made. And in fact, Scott is no longer a Signature Artist at Washburn. So indeed – this guitar is R A R E.
The guitar is Brand New. And it has acquired one ding which you can see in the photographs. It’s on the upper bout tip, near the point. It’s a spot which goes through the paint.
This ‘spot’ can certainly be touched up by the new owner or – more realistically – left as is. Because, let’s face it: This is a Brutal guitar with a truly Brutal finish which just begs to be assaulted on stage.
Other than this spot – the guitar is in complete New condition.
Of course, these guitars married the Parker Neck/Fingerboard technology with Washburn’s solid body build quality.
But here is Washburn’s Official statement on the guitar:
The Washburn WV540 VASI SCOTT IAN is a 6-String Electric Guitar featuring Seymour Duncan Pickups, Floyd Rose Bridge and Sperzel Tuners.
