Offer! I'll take the first offer of £699 up until midnight Christmas Eve.  After owning a number of Nuno models I was craving an N3, with its maple fingerboard and 24 frets. The problem is that they're rare and even the Washburn ones aren't accurate. They are n4s with a maple board.  So I made this one. As close as possible to Nuno's original N3 as seen in the decadence Dance video. There are a couple of differences made to my taste. The pickups which are hot and trebly but more versatile than Nunos original 2 xl500.  The neck profile is more strat like than super skinny charvel style, as I prefer something to grab hold of. Makes it faster for me.  Only two two small areas to note. First up a few mm of damage to side of neck which has been repaired but can be seen if you look closely. In no way effects playability.  Secondly could do with a fret dressing. It plays great but is time for some tlc.  All reflected in the price.  Alder two piece body birds eye maple neck and fingerboard 24 medium jumbo frets stephens cutaway Floyd rose trem with r2 nut (42mm at nut) switchcraft jack dimarzio strap lock and strap seymour Duncan hot rodded pair (jb and jazz) cts pot mini toggle switch (in correct position) Local collection is welcome but I'm happy to arrange a courier and a case at buyers expense. Just let me know where you are based and I will get a price for you. Price adjusted to reflect need for a fret dress.
