Hello there !

I just spotted this Westone guitar. Looks great but costs quite a lot of money Sad

Oh-h-h-h-h....just drop dead gorgeous!  Drool!

Now, I need the choir's help in sorting out Unknown #5 versus King II versus PO501. Are we talking about the same guitar here with minor variations?

Wow, I wonder if this is the most expensive guitar ever produced under the Westone label. I don't think I've seen fret binding 'nibs' on a Westone before, and the machine heads look unique too. I wouldn't say it is the same as the King II. The headstock is completely different; it's more of a copy of the Gibson. I'm really tempted to go for it but the price is way out of my reach.

Kinda figured you'd like this one David! Razz

I'd love to have it too, but even without post-stroke-flipper-fingers, I couldn't do it justice. (No money either)

I still regret not going after that King II. Still, at least it went to one of the guys here who will appreciate it. I wonder what the chances are of another one turning up?

Especially one in the UK. At least I do now have a nice L5-look-a -like thanks to Damien!

I wonder if it is worth those 1700,00 EUR the shop is asking
