Very clean 1997 Washburn J-9 in white with factory Bigsby and original hard shell case.

Not all J-9 models came equipped with a Bigsby, and this one has the gold hardware Bigsby setup from the factory. Classic full hollowbody construction with dual humbuckers, bound body and neck, block inlays, and gold hardware throughout.

Serial number confirms 1997 production (Samick factory, Korea).

The electronics have just been reworked and the guitar has been freshly set up with low, comfortable action. Neck is straight, frets are in great shape, and it plays easily up and down the board.

Specs:

• 1997 production
• Full hollowbody
• White finish
• Dual humbuckers
• Gold hardware
• Factory Bigsby vibrato
• Rosewood fingerboard with block inlays
• Grover tuners
• Original Washburn hard shell case included

Condition:

Very good overall condition for its age. Light cosmetic wear consistent with a late ’90s instrument. Gold hardware shows some natural patina. No structural issues. Fresh setup and ready to gig.

These are great jazz / blues / rockabilly style hollowbodies and don’t show up as often with the factory Bigsby and original case together.
