ghamerinfrance Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Hi, are pickups originals ? Could you please tell me the production year (for neck feeling vs vintage carve I do like) Thanks Gilles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbonesullivan Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Ahh, not blue. I am saved! Good luck! Great price on a great guitar! Personally I've always been scared of the acoustic style bridges on electrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordsoftheJungle Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Nice,,, looks similar to my old DuoTone Custom. The thing that surprised me about that guitar wasn't how great it sounded through an acoustic amp (I expected that) but instead what an awesome rocker it was, lots of growl.

ptm1diver Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 4 hours ago, Studio Custom said: The Washburn has been seized by US Fish & Wildlife, FedEx has no idea when it will be released. Trying to sneak some rosewood in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjamiam Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 1 hour ago, Studio Custom said: It is a poplar body and all maple neck, no rosewood. Maybe all international guitars get inspected? It's a governmental activity. Let's not go overestimating the intelligence involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velorush Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I'm an hour away and my brother lives in Memphis (he's Five-0). LMK if I can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
currypowder Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 21 hours ago, Studio Custom said: I found the Memphis Fish and Wildlife number online, talked to the director. They do not have the guitar, nor is flagged for inspection. He wrote FedEx and CC me on it, awaiting a reply. The plot thickens! Not sure if that's good news or not. I hope it's not just lost. Did the shipper insure it through FedEx? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hbom Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 I heard that all those FedEx drivers have super guitar collections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Haynie Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 FedEx should have details on who scanned in a package and where they did it every time the package moved. I had one misdelivered package in over a decade of using FedEx weekly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff_hartwell Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Hi, Lovely guitar in the OP. A few questions for clarification- if the pickups are original, who took off the covers? As far as the other major modifications (moving the pots around and separating the jacks), who did the work? Do you have gut shots? Thanks!

The work was performed by Bill Baker in NJ, well known for having worked for Ace Freeley for years and SRV when the light tower collapsed on his guitars a week prior to his death. I can take photos, I'll have figure out how to host them now that Photobucket is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Haynie Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 There has to be an employee that passed it to the Feds. That is where inquiries should be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Studio Custom Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Barbarella is not lost, it is a paperwork problem. The correct forms were not filled out in Australia to allow entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
