Are you sure it's not a XB-100? That's what I have,unless yours is a five string,then that might be case. Anyway,I have a four string Washburn Bantam XB-100,it cost me $200 new,with a gig bag I also purchsed. It really has served me well over the years,I'm not regretting it or anything.I was going to get the five string model than decided I didn't care for the P-bass type pickups in it. A fiver needs those long jazz bass pups IMO. I think the guitar holds its own,while the pups could be better the neck is smooth and it has a nice feel to it. I like it.
