westone prestige 250

[caucajun]

i bought this real cheap in a pawnshop not knowing what a great LP sub it would turn out to be. it's an "86, and back then it sold for exactly the same $$ as a gibby LPC. plays and feels exactly like a LPC, too! except, not so heavy!

It looks really nice... How much was it?

Westones are great guitars! My old guitar teacher had one from the 80's with a floyde on it and one pickup. It was this old yellow color and it was beat to hell. But it looked soo cool and had so much character. I tried to buy it from him many times, i even offered him much more than it was worth in that condition. But he never budged on selling it. Damn, i wish i had that guitar.

i discovered them late in my "career"....after i retired from gigging......the good news is, they're still cheap......while being excellent players!

shhhh.....

I recently picked this one up. Saw it in a shop, played it for 2 hours! Great guitar.
