Demo vid’s by Gregor Hilden. If you do a search, I’ve posted many videos of Gregg over the years. He’s one of those players that could stretch baling wire on a 2×4 and make it sound good.
The Washburn Idol in these videos is only $400 new and as you will hear, good alternative to some of the other Les Paul copies out there. Very nice looking and sounding guitar to come off of the shelf.
I have a Washburn 335 copy that the quality is exceptional. I have no doubt that this model of the Idol would be as well
Here are some links to Washburn’s site for the Idol. The Custom Shop model…. well, its a bit expensive. Bryce could probably find enough in his couch for it but the rest of us will just have to look & wish

Hey Keith, I can’t hear the audio on the videos over the sound of me wading through all the cash I have laying around my apartment. 😉

Hi Keith,
fat Sound! Just wonderful.
I had to just repeatedly listen to.
The guitar is a feast for the eyes!
Congratulations.
All the best for 2016Wilfried
Play guitar just like you live; don't get bogged down in theory, it's just a tool without feeling.

Hey Billy
Below, I’ve pasted the caption that Greg had with the first video. The early part of the first video was straight into his Fender Vibroverb. I think that Greg and Shane of In The Blues are by far the best reviewers on You Tube. Both guys try to show the full spectrum of the products capability
