This is an exceptional Washburn J6S Wes Montgomery deserving of a new home. Features a very exceptional finish for a 20 year old black jazz guitar. A few slight fretboard binding splits are the only cosmetic flaws worth mentioning. The neck is straight and true, the frets lack any real wear. This guitar displays pride of ownership that's worthy of adding to any collection. The action is very low (a quarter fits at the 10th fret just right) making transitions smooth and easy. I'm the second owner, and the guitar has never been gigged. The original owner was a senior player that didn't play often, which perhaps explains the guitars overall condition.

Click any pick to be taken to my photo album displaying over 125 pictures of every area on the surface of this guitar.

Professionally packed and ready for shipping. Guitar comes with an aftermarket case that's in good condition.

I've done my absolute best to both describe and photographically present this classic 1994 Westerly, R.I. Guild X-500 guitar as accurately as possible.
