Hi all, I'm the original owner of this 2002 NX6. It has a padauk body and neck, an ebony F/B with no markers, 3 way toggle, tone and volume. It's in really great shape as it hasn't been played much. Padauk is a dense, tonefull wood that resonates really well. I changed the pickups out a few times in this, the originals (Duncan Custom/Custom & 59) are long gone. I tried a Bill and Becky XL500 and a Dimarzio FRED which were not what I was looking for. I put the EMG's in with the 81 in the bridge and 85 in the neck and it sounded good. It was still missing the fatness I was looking for so I swapped them around and BAM!!! There it was. The 85 is fat and hot and the 81 in the neck is just killer (to my ears!). I installed Sperzels so there are exposed holes from the original Washburn/Grovers (included). I also installed Dunlop Straploks and will include the Planet Waves Garcia strap which looks great with this guitar.

 

There are VERY, VERY slight marks on the back from my buckle/button. So slight that I couldn't really get a picture of them. You have to look in just the right light. Also the "Y" in "Stephens Extended Cutaway" is not there, I don't know if it ever was so maybe this was a "Limited Edition w/ Stephens Extended Cutawa"! It has the original HSC which has a few bumps and bruises but nothing substantial. There are no scratches, dings, chunks, bumps, gashes or gouges. In fact, it still smells heavenly! I don't know if it's from the wood being exposed with no finish but it literally has a sweet smell to it. No smoking smells on the guitar or case (as I'm not a smoker) and it hasn't been out to any smoking places. It's labeled as have the Buzz Feiten Tuning System but I tune it standard and it plays and intonates great. I'm selling this "AS IS". These don't come up too often. Every once in a while you might see the standard Ash or the matte black model but not the paduak. I deliberated a long time on selling this but it just doesn't get played so it's time to move on. I'm located in NJ. $1,250 Shipped and PP'd to the lower 48. I've bought but never sold here. I'm on Ebay as milkbonemav so you can check my feedback there also. Thanks for looking. Lots of Pics and I can take more or specific shots if needed.

 

Answers to questions asked that I should have provided the Info originally:

Nut = 1 5/8"

8.5 Lbs on bathroom scale

15" radius 25.5" Scale

I'm going to say that the neck is "D" shaped and not thin like a Wizard neck (to me), much rounder.

I have this listed over at TGP also.
