Hi there, I`m living in Europe and a play electric guitar for some years now. I bought recently a Washburn guitar. I know the two pre-owners, both told me there hadn't been any modifications to this guitar. Since i'm curious i looked it up and came up with some questions: The truss-rod cover says A 20V but there is no tremolo, but a bridge with fine tuners. Color is not black, it is a fine grey metallic. Serial is 840523. Anyone here with an Information? Thanks in advance

I'm no expert on the Washburns, but to me, the OEM bridge on an A20 V was a standard Fender style unit with no string locks. your one looks to have had another bridge fitted as well as the locks fitted.

My 0.02c...

I'm no x-spurt neither but obviously there was routing for a trem originally which is now blocked. Presumably that was to provide a fastening surface for the current bridge.
Still, she's a nice geetar! :up:
