Westone Spectrum DX 1985
Here is a collectable vintage guitar that is great value for money.
Westone guitars from the '80s are highly regarded. Guitarists and bass players snap them up whenever they come up for sale. That's because they are great quality. The Matsumoku models are from the height of the battle between the U.S. Giants and the Eastern 'new kids on the block', who many say, were in the '80s were producing better instruments than the old US manufacturers.
The info below is taken from the Westone Website

Please look at the photos. They give a good indication of the condition. They are taken outside in the sun to show up any imperfections. There are stong shadows due to this, but they should not obscure detail.
