Washburn N2 Nuno Bettencourt
Rosewood fingerboard. Chrome hardware.
The Washburn N2 is a superb guitar with excellent playability and premium features like a Bill Lawrence® L500 bridge pickup & Washburn 600S Floyd Rose® tremolo system.
The N2 is built with an alder both and a natural finish maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard, which is loaded with 22 jumbo frets.
Although the N4 remains Nuno’s “main workhorse, the N2s deliver the heart and soul of that design - at a price that more musicians can afford!
Washburn now includes a padded gigbag. For more info click here!
Feature:
This model should have come with Cutaway option. Anything else is OK. Pick-ups are “top performing”, very good tuners, etc.
Quality:
The N2 is well made and not bad for an entry N model. It has had mine for 16 years and is still going strong.
Sound:
Nice sound Bill Lawrence bridge pickup has a very nice tone. it’s sound is good. In the bridge mode it had a good crunch to it. In the middle and neck position it has a good blues and clean sound.
Value:
Worth every penny, great value would expect to pay more. About $700.00 for mine 16 years ago, it would be a good starter. Check latest price! Check used price!
Ease of Use:
Excellent fret board…just misses “Cutaway”.
Overall:
After all these years, planning to up-grade it (to keep it) and also get a N4
