Buzz Feiten Tuning System
About the Buzz Feiten Tuning System
The Buzz Feiten Tuning System is a tempered tuning formula, which uses a compensated nut and saddle to correct the inherent intonation problems of the Western tuning formula. The system that Buzz devised has been a godsend to guitarists. Fans of the system include Eddie Van Halen, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Liona Boyd and Andy Summers. The Buzz Feiten Tuning System is standard on all USA made Washburn guitars and basses and is featured on select imported models. Washburn is the only major guitar manufacturer to incorporate the system as a standard feature on production guitars.

"Looks, plays and sounds as good as the USA made N4 - I have both."
If they still sold these new I'd get two more to pass on to my children.
Sound
I own an N4 as well and I like this NX3 just as good as my $1599.00 N4.

Never needed support. That alone makes it a 10.
The Wow Factor
Well, it's sexy but the color of mine is Army Green so I don't get off on that much. But it's sexy for sure.
