Washburn built the N24PSVINTAGEK-D-U as part of the Nuno Bettencourt Signature N Series line, a collaboration developed with the guitarist to reflect his specific requirements for neck speed and upper-fret access. The model sits within a range of N Series variants distinguished by hardware, pickup, and finish choices. Its reverse headstock and Stephen's Extended Cutaway neck joint were central design features of the series.
The double-cut solid body is constructed from agathis, topped by a maple neck fastened via a 5-bolt Stephen's Extended Cutaway joint. The rosewood fretboard carries 22 frets and dot inlays over a 25.5-inch scale, with a 43 mm chrome locking nut. A Floyd Rose Special bridge handles vibrato duties, supported by Grover Exclusive 18:1 chrome tuners throughout. The humbucking pickup layout pairs a Washburn neck unit with a Bill Lawrence bridge pickup, selected via a 3-way toggle. A single volume control with push-pull coil tap completes the electronics. All hardware is finished in chrome. The guitar ships strung with D'Addario EXL 120 light-gauge strings and wears a matte finish in a Vintage Padauk Stain.
Owners requiring setup work, locking nut adjustment, Floyd Rose cavity routing confirmation, or pickup replacement guidance should consult a qualified guitar technician familiar with double-locking tremolo systems.
Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.
The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.
Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
