Washburn KC-40V

Yellow, early Chicago series, 600S Floyd Rose tremolo.

Body: Alder
Neck: Maple, bolt-on
Fingerboard: Rosewood, 22-fret, pearl dot inlays

Condition:

  • Functional: 6/10
    • Pots are noisy, needs an overall setup too
  • Visual: 8/10
    • If you don't look too close, it is near mint. There are a few nicks that got fixed, so in detailed inspection it is still very good but obviously well used.

Boss Dynamic Filter FT-2

Made in Japan, contrary to what the base plate says, as that was a replacement according to the previous owner. The serial number sticker does state that much.

Made between 1986 and 1989.

Condition:


  • Functional: untested
  • Visual: 5/10
    • Very, very battered, though nothing seems broken.

Boss Noise Gate NF-1

A made in Japan simplistic noise gate pedal, obviously used a lot, but still working fine.

These were made between 1979 and 1988, but given the high serial number and the fact it is a "short dash" this is not an early one.

Condition:


  • Functional: 9/10
    • Noisy but working fine
  • Visual: 6/10
    • Nothing broken, but serious use marks
