For those who want prcises information, it would be useful to go look on the manufacturer's website rather than here, there are also other opinions on this guitar are Extremely sharp and complete.
But I would add, as the owner of it and here for résumé without being very accurate =):
This is a guitar factory in the US (it is between Canada and Mexico)
ESA = Ebony Swamp Ash
Micro: Seymour Duncan 59 and Bill Lawrence
Washburn by Schaller Floyd (that's less than the original Schaller because the alloy is of lower quality so in the end it is aging badly =====> thank you PM)

This is a guitar lightweight, pleasant, the grip is immdiate.

I love the head backwards, gave him a look gnial.Au departure I acquired N2, and so really very fan of Nuno Bettencourt and above because at departure I did not have enough money, I ended up giving me this wonder.
I put 8 because I think be objective enough, they could change even when the bill lawrence and put a push-pull ...

USE

The neck is super comfortable.
The guitar is really pretty, it's also only I bought ... and for the price I will not have fun buying a guitar that does not please me, and especially without the try before .... last I said was, I said nothing ...
Even when I flash it before, I've tried many times, in a lot of various finishes etc ...
The head is a spill of the characteristics of the series N, should really be a little weird to buy it, and then not to love after ...

SONORITS

As I am a fan of Nuno, I know his signature model will probably not be very loign sound of his albums ... and yes Nuno does not jazz or salsa or classical or the mouelleuse pop.
He played in a hard rock band ... yeah ... with very fat and powerful distos.
At the same time, 2 humbucking pickups ... I say I say has nothing ...
It is true that the base, it is a bit limited, just replace the bill lawrence by Bill and Becky + a push-pull and kisses.
There is such a thing called the volume knob, if a running play on microphones of output power without really turn down the volume ... I do not express myself very clearly sorry (I'm dtenteur as a N4) but basically you can spend much distos sounds very nice crunch sounds just using the knob.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I use it for less than 1 year (not quite, but let prcis: 8 months 3 days and 2 hours)
The particular feature I like most is the handle, the dcoupe (dcoupe = the shape of the guitar), the head backward (backward = backwards).
I tried a lot of models (other guitars), I must admit that this guitar is a marvel (I like it)
It is lightweight, small, really when the branch we are surprised by the power output, it tears =)
For a model signature, I think it is really affordable (it is not too chre)
I remake that choice without hsiter .... not ... bientt should not =)

It is the custom shop quality, this is not anything not.
It comes with a solid flight case, I actually t quite surprised by its quality and size ... it's standard by the guitar !! =)
At the same time it is true that they have managed in fender all their models and they are all of irreproachable quality ... no no they never had bad s ries ...

=)

PS: it is not to maintain a certain cult of contradiction, but that the handle moves and that's the problem Recurring N4, it's good pee so I chat.Moi rgler of the handle ... like on my other guitars ...
The guitars are wood (can not be any), until the one agrees, wood moves with time, the rate of hygromtrie etc ...
Moving the handle of the problem is a problem Recurring all guitars ...
The N4 may have this problem all: no. The recurrent word is not valid if it is not on the same guitar whose untimely rglages the handle is carried .... if that's the case, yes is a default has .dropoff window
But if the forum says, then it's true, everyone knows that a forum is an undeniable source of truth.
A good guitar tries before you buy.
