I’ve been hankering after something cheap (and a bit different from the usual budget versions of Gibsons) with humbuckers to play for an upcoming Sabbath related get together. Remembered an old Washburn I had while at school which thought would be ideal... googled it; Washburn Hawk. They go for £700 now. Damn.
There are a bunch of fairly similar Japanese built models under various brands from that era. I've got Matsumoku built Vantage brand guitar and bass, both neck-through. Possibly not exactly bargainous these days, although I can't imaging getting quite that kind of a price, at least locally.
Sound advice. Sorry I can’t help.
