Beautiful bass and give your daughter a big high five for the fantastic art work!!!!
Alan
I've taken a note of the s/n for my Washburns
B10 is 7010652
B105 is 9011393
B20 is 8050779
so I take it the years are B10 1987, B105 1989, B20 1988.
Just guessing here though.

Actually, Washburn's mistake. Pick a damn model number and stick with it. (Blasphemous, I know, but it needed to be typed). I feel shame.
Heya kodiakblair------I got your SN's posted. Thank you for the updated info for your basses.
I agree with Randy-----------I wish Washburn stuck with separate names for models, put the names on the truss rod covers or SOMEWHERE for many models and stuck with ONE serial number system. BTW Randy--I need your SN to put you as an owner of that white B-60 now.
Heya Heisenbass------I have your SN up on your Force 8 BBR. (see post 231 here). Am I missing any others of your basses?

Hiya MEK old bean. SN# for '84 White B-60 is #841004. Pics to follow. Hate to use absolutes, but best feel of any bass I own. Rest of the gang is getting jealous due to lack of love lately.
MEKer, here are my 2 Washburn bass.. I posted about them before.. I include the serial number.
86' Washburn Force ABT B-30 metallic red MiJ (by Kasuga) S/N: K863424
96' Washburn Bantam XB400 natural matte (butterscotch) MiK S/N: S6053895
86' Washburn Force ABT B-30 metallic red MiJ (by Kasuga) S/N: K863424
96' Washburn Bantam XB400 natural matte (butterscotch) MiK S/N: S6053895
96' Washburn Bantam XB400 natural matte (butterscotch) MiK S/N: S6053895
I love this one! My Washburn Force 4 ABT has the same body style except the tuners are tilted back toward the body.
Hi Ironbar-----hey whats the serial number for your Force 4 ABT?---need it on the database. Thanks.

You don't want to do that. Trust me.
i added a copy of the list in your most recent post - please let me know if you cannot edit it now. thanks.
Hello, I'm new to the forum. I have a b-5 stage series in white from either '83 or '84, can't remember which right now
Welcome to TalkBass and to the Washburn lovers gang silverwolf, is you bass is the one with the soap bar pick-up and with the little tone switch like the one on this catalog page? If it is, I really appreciate if you can give us your appreciation of the different tone available with this bass, this model is high on my list of Washburn bass that I really like to try or at least to own eventually. If you like, you could be member of the Washburn club? You just have to make request in this thread.
Regards
