USE

The handle is very nice
Ergonomics is excellent with access to typical acute N

While his level, I would say it is special, this guitar shares the same microphones that others may, depending, in Ash or Alder.
With Alder, I think it gives a very Hard Rock!
With Ash, it's different, it's much more than slap Alder, here we are in the chapters on personal preference;

Here with Paddouk, this exotic wood with a high density, it changes everything, for my part, I find that clean sounds, it's much more round and warm, it's really nice.

For cons, I see less interest in the rest of the others.

I think it is less oriented hard rock than the others, but on it does it very well too!

SOUNDS

No, it does not really suited to what I play, I experienced a PSM for these guitars, but it has happened.
I use it with different amps, but paradoxically there or I find most cool is either clear sounds, it's very pretty.
Or distortion, it works pretty well.
But it's still a little off standard sounds we are used to (and me too!)

NOTICE GLOBAL

I'm not going to depreciate, but it's still somewhat expensive tool for what it is, if we pay 2000 euros as planned in France.
Washburn disappoints me a little, I said on another test.
They are tiresome, it is unclear or out of their instruments.
Washburn is neither Finder nor Gibson,
It's a shame, because this N4 has arguments.
The value for money is very bad if you pay 2000 euros, it's a guitar that should not cost more than 1000 euros, or even less if you buy direct to the States.
But 1000 euros, it is worth to be interested.
The GAS N4 happened, no, I do not have that choice,
but I denigrates not completely either.
