It is So Metal – Washburn HM-20VK – Reissue Retro Series

I came across this guitar as I was shopping around for a new 1 to add to my tiny arsenal. I had by no means observed this physique style prior to (not that I’m a guitar body aficionado) and when I did, I entirely wanted one particular. This is a reissue of Washburn’s HM-20 guitar that you may recognize from this music video of the late Robert Palmer’s song "Addicted to Love." I don’t forget watching that back in the 80′s, so the previous statement I had made about in no way seeing the physique style isn’t completely true. I just do not recall ever seeing a single. Besides, who was actually paying attention to what the girls were (fake) playing, anyway?
Aside from its aggressive physique style, it features dual humbuckers, double locking tremolo and body, neck & headstock binding. This is a wonderful guitar, but here’s the only problem it has, in my expertise. The 23rd and 24th frets are hard to access since the cutaway is too modest for my hands to reach comfortably. Otherwise, it seems a good quality guitar for the price I paid, which was around . In capable hands, 1 would be able to melt the faces proper off one’s listeners with this axe.
