Got to love these epic forays into the dark muddled history of washburn, I think it's fair to say you guys should be the official keepers of the Washburn history book , masters of the brand! xD In the meantime keeping very busy working my force abt b-10 at practices and the gig offers are...

Sorry my phone's driving me nuts posting my messages when I mean to delete a letter. Wha. I was trying to say was that reversed colour scheme force 40 is beautiful! I bet that is super rare :D is it from factory? Was it a special edition fir a certain player? Was it for an ad? It's awesome!

There's a b-20 on English eBay for not too much from the same kind of time as mine, 87/88 I think, in black. She's a bit beaten up but in good nic. Only problem is it is a little way away... and I can't justify new basses right now xD And btw that rreversed co

that's a pretty sexy bit if kit, wish I could collect the whole abt range :D there's was a b-2 on eBay a while back but was overpriced considering what I got my b-10 for. Every bassist I meet who tries it can't believe how good it is though. Btw like the look of that force 40, just can't...

That is awesome. That bass was made for huge white flair's and insanely funky basslines. Man that's cool

I wish someone had! You saw the piccies? Cool :) I'm playing in the cellar in portsmouth on the 21st of fed, and the firehouse in Southampton on the 28th of Feb. Endorsing washburn wherever I wander :) in the meantime though I'll soon be taking my nicely set up force 8 into the studio for...

*properly and tamed. Got a new set of strings, fret clean and dress etc. So she's playing like new now. And I found red dots on a black board easy, I used to play fretless :D and personally i prefer fretted basses without dots.

Oops sorry ive not replied on that, I've been busy! I rocked the force 8 on the friday and Sunday night's and while it stunned all the bassists I played alongside it also made sure the gigs were well... Unforgettable! The original strings were pretty knackered but I didnt have time to get a...

Playing a decent local gig tonight but cant decide which Washburn to use! Aah I knew this would happen! XD well I suppose the force 8 needs it's first outing and it's my first if the year so might as well do it in style. My B-10 does look rather forlorn now though...

Haha cheers dude! :) she's a beauty And her serial number is 842690 :D

Haha, You really are the man in the know! Sweet dude, and thanks for the info :) it's kinda strange the things they did just for limited runs, my pickgaurds like a satin black and the headstock writings orange, though I assumed it had just faded. And your bbr writing just makes the history that...

Yours is a beauty too man! :D love the red writing and the red accent around the pickguard :) And your so right man, played and tried a lot of fenders but this just head and shoulders above them, in tone feel looks and quality. I heard so many good things about the force 8 and I'm so glad I...

here she is! ladies and gentleman say hello to my new bass B-) as you can see shes in great conditon, considering its 30 years old! only a little paint worn off the tone control and a tiny dink on the top of the headstock! otherwise paint, pickguard, everything is flawless. and...
