ape Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Just curious to if anyone has got one or owned one?, I really like the look of them and from the very few clips I could find on youtube sound nice, I've owned a XB400 and was a really good bass, just wondering what peoples opinions are, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodiakblair Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 TalkBass has a few reviews posted. All positive. Got a soft spot for Washburns myself. Good prices to be had for buyers too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kodiakblair Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 It's always a problem Ape. I just found out today Butler Music in the US is doing Washburn Stu Hamm 5er's for $450 inc shipping and import tax,about £300 to us. This being the same week I shelled out for a Curbow and a Couple of Retrovibes. Ain't that the way of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ape Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Oh yes, lot's of stuff seems to be from the US at the minute including the emg pre amp system I want but postage and customs charges is a bit of a killer usually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodiakblair Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Ape what Pre amp system are you after ? I don't know if you've looked at Thomann http://www.thomann.de/gb/emg_electronics_for_basses.html They're not that cheap but no import tax or that.
