Description

Washburn built the PXV-MS2FR-D-U as a signature model within its Parallaxe Series, developed in conjunction with Michael Sweet of Stryper. The guitar was inspired by the instrument Sweet toured with during Stryper's 30th Anniversary To Hell With The Devil Tour in 2016, and was finished in his signature yellow and black striped pattern. It was manufactured in the USA.

The guitar is built on a mahogany body and mahogany neck in the PXV body shape, fitted with an ebony fretboard spanning 24 frets. A locking nut at 1-11/16" feeds into an Original Floyd Rose bridge equipped with GraphTech String Saver Saddles, with tuning handled by Black Grover Exclusive 18:1 tuners — all finished in black hardware. The 25-1/2" scale neck carries Parallaxe inlays at the 12th fret. Two Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers are routed through a 3-way toggle switch with a single volume and single tone control. The guitar shipped strung with D'Addario XL 120 light gauge strings.

Owners seeking setup adjustments, Floyd Rose maintenance, or compatible locking nut and saddle replacements 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.

Put yours on the record.

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.

What do you know about this one?

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.
