USED WASHBURN / N5 BEA / Nuno Bettencourt Signature [05]

Nuno Betoncourt's signature model N5 is now in stock!

Nuno Betoncourt is the guitarist and central figure of EXTREME.
Since his debut, he has consistently used his signature model, the N series, and his presence can still be seen on many stages.

The model we have just received is the N5, which was created around 2005.
This model is equipped with a pickguard, which did not exist among the N series models produced until then.
The N5 has a three-single layout, and the N6, which was created around the same time, has an SSH layout.
Rear pickup has been changed to Bill Lawrence's L-250 by the previous owner.

Although there are some signs of use, it has been checked and overall adjusted by a professional repair person after arrival, and is in good playing condition.

This is a rare model that has been in production for only a few years and is becoming less and less available every year.
