"Don't let this MADE IN CHINA misleads you."

Feature:
This Washburn X37 equipped with everything a 7 string should be, even better than my Schecter C-7.

Quality:
I didn't see any wrong with this MIC quality. You can't compare it with those MIUSA Custom shop.

Value:
you paid $199 and get a $450 value 7 string. What else are you expecting from it?

Desirability:
It is a sad story to hear Washurn discontiued the 7 string production.

Sound:
Don't let the $199 price tag misleads you. It really rocks!!! I have 5 seven string, this X37 even sounds better than my cheap $350 Ibanez. I think the pickups are DiMarzio Blazer compatible. Who knows if they are from the same factory. :) Since the body is the archtop and string through that can enhance the sustain.

Ease of Use:
Low to mid action, smooth fretboard. It is a fast neck. I like this neck more than my ESP.

Support:
I've been rocking it for 2 years. So far I don't need any customer support.

Overall:
I'm sure if someone stole my X37 I would buy another one even it would cost me $300

"You get what you pay for (which isn't much...)"

Feature:
A 7 string for under $200 - how can you go wrong...

Quality:
Fit and finish was poor. I can't go into specific detail, as I put it back in the box an hour after taking it out. Paint quality was overall pretty good, but cutout for pickup selector looked like it had been done with a butter knife. I have another Washburn (acoustic) that wasn't much more expensive but is GORGEOUS - one of my nicest guitars (and I own Gibson customs, early 70s strats, etc).

Value:
Considering how inexpensive it is, it would be a good guitar for a beginner, or someone who hasn't experienced much nicer stuff.

Desirability:
I don't want this guitar at any price.

Sound:
It sounded ok. I didn't really give it a chance to explore sound quality. The strings that came on it were really bad, but that is to be expected.

Ease of Use:
Action was fair to poor - buzzes, etc. all over the place. Probably could be fixed with a pro setup (but that would add another $75+ to the cost of the guitar...)

Support:
I've never had to deal with Washburn - I've had my acoustic for 20+ years with no problems, and the X37 is on it's way back to ZZSounds. I don't want this to reflect poorly on ZZSounds, as they shipped it quickly at an awesome price. But a valuable point was reinforced - when dealing with a reputable company, you usually get what you paid for - and $199 for a new electric, especially a 7 string, doesn't get you much.
