It's the entry point of the N-Series — the same family that gave Nuno his voice on some of rock's most recognizable records — built around an alder body, a bolt-on maple neck with a reverse headstock, and a pair of Washburn humbuckers wired with the same stripped-down elegance as the guitars above it in the line: one volume knob, one 3-way toggle, done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis one is a used example in Very Good condition. It's been played, it has character, and it's been confirmed fully functional by our staff. A full tech setup will be completed before it ships to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis Washburn N1 is in Very Good condition. The guitar is fully functional and will go through a full tech set up prior to shipping. It has a small dent on top, finish imperfection on headstock, normal play wear noted. Please review the photos carefully for full condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSolid Body, Simple Controls, Real Feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe N1's alder body keeps the guitar light and lively under your arm — alder is a reliable, tonally balanced wood that sits comfortably in the mix without demanding eq attention. The bolt-on maple neck feels fast and responsive, finished naturally so it doesn't drag on your palm the way a thick gloss finish can. The reverse headstock is a Nuno hallmark across the entire N-Series: it's not just a visual flourish — the longer bass-side string length adds tension and definition to the low strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 22-fret rosewood fingerboard is fitted with jumbo frets, which makes bending easy and gives you a little extra grip on each note. Scale length runs 25.5\", which keeps string tension comfortable and familiar if you're coming from any standard Strat-style instrument. Nut width is 1-5\/8\" (42mm) — plenty of room for clean chord voicings without feeling wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePickups and Hardware That Get Out of the Way\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe N1 runs two Washburn open-coil humbuckers — neck and bridge — wired to a 3-way toggle and a single master volume. That's it. No tone knobs, no coil-tap switches, no second-guessing. The bridge humbucker delivers a hotter, brighter output; the neck position opens up and warms considerably. The simplicity of the control layout is a feature, not a limitation — it's the same philosophy you'll find on Nuno's higher-end N4.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHardware is all chrome: a fulcrum tremolo bridge with individual saddles for easy intonation adjustments, die-cast tuners for solid tracking, and a Graph Tech NuBone nut. The tremolo is a standard fulcrum design — not a locking system — so string changes and setup are refreshingly straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alder, solid body construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maple, bolt-on, with reverse headstock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rosewood with dot inlays, 22 jumbo frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut:\u003c\/strong\u003e Graph Tech NuBone, 1-5\/8\" (42mm) width\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePickups:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dual Washburn open-coil humbuckers (neck and bridge)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single volume knob, 3-way pickup selector toggle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome fulcrum tremolo with individual saddles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome die-cast\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Washburn\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e N1 Nuno Bettencourt Signature\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e U-N1A\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Used\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1872, C.A.
