Hey guys, I think Washburn is giving me the run around.
Here is the story...
I have a 1992 N2 that needs a refret
I called Washburn and I bought a new neck.
When I got it it was the wrong neck. They sent me an N1 neck.
It also had offset dots and a protruding truss rod that fits into a pocket that is routed into the body.
My N2 neck has standard fret markers and the truss rod is concealed in the heel. You access it by removing a little cover on the last fret. The heel is also a different size because of it.
They issued me a call tag to return the incorrect neck.
They told me that N2 necks are on order and they will arrive from overseas in a month.
This was 2 months ago. The necks arrived finally!!!
I called to confirm they were sending me mine and to describe it to me.
The parts guy and sales guy both told me that it has a standard plastic nut and offset dots with the protruding truss rod.
I told them that N2's have Floyds and that N1's have the standard plastic nut.
I even directed them to the picture below directly from the American Musical Supply website. They told me that N2's no longer have Floyd Rose locking trems. I went onto the Washburn website and showed them that the N2 absolutely does have a Floyd. Only the N1 has a standard non-locking nut. I also told them that every Washburn online distributor and local store that I called told me that the N2 absolutely does have a locking nut. Do you guys have any connections. This doesn't make sense to me.
