Washburn N4 Coil tap tones - Peacemaker Die - Extreme

This is a video that was requested by some people who wanted to know what sounds I could get using my custom wiring. If you want to wire your N4 like this, you'll need a push/pull audio taper pot 500K sounds good. here is a diagram I made http://bit.ly/WaHca amp settings: bass 4/10 mid 5/10 treble 6.5/10 on clean channel with gain at 5/10 enjoy :)

I've been thinking of getting an N4 paduak, preferably from the first generation. I'm just a little worried it is not as versatile as people pretend. Would you be able to make a video about the range of sounds you get with your N4?

[BlueBuddha]

when you say the first generatin o you mean the 1993 ones?

Padauk N4's are just plain awesome.

The neck pickup is really smooth and the bridge pickup is incredibly powerful. I think the coil tap is vital to add to the versatility. Fair enough it doesn't have a Tone pot so i guess thats its downfall.

If you can afford one, buy it, you won't lose money so if you don't get along with it just sell it on!

Is that padauk?

[BlueBuddha]

yup

[DenPetroff]

Nice playing!

[BlueBuddha]

[vickersmaster]

[TheHeavensGAMERS]

@BlueBuddha hi loved the tone you have. and nice playing dude.. i got an n4 paduak too and getting it coil tapped.. can i please ask, what amp are you using?? you got a nice smooth overdrive sound there! sounds like a boogie??? thanks

I really need to do this to my N4 paduak, but it means replacing both my pickups, and I cannot decide on what to get, thinking to go for a suhr set.

I have the original early 90's one, and either the bill lawerence has gradually gotten worse sounding, or it always sounded like a bag of cocks and I just didnt know any better.

The N4 does have a tone that is easily distinctive from all other guitars.Probably due to the cut away at the heel of the neck..

That's funny. I just sent my N4 off to have the coil tap push/pull installed. Sounds like it's going to be a good move!  Thanks for posting.

Love the N4 mod. sounds killer!

[GlitchMasterz]

Give Tommey Emmanual a shot should sound classy if you can learn say classical gas but with an N4 tange to it. But depends how good you are at learning his stuff >.>
