Default Washburn J-10

Anyone know anything about this very rare model?

What I know is that it was only made in 1989, and came in Natural, Cherry Sunburst and Tobacco Sunburst. Mine's a cherry burst.

HIGHLY flamed maple back and sides, solid spruce top, body binding everywhere, ebony fretboard, abalone inlays on the fretboard and headstock logo, dual humbuckers, gold hardware, 6-ply maple & rosewood neck, pearl tuners and suspended tailpiece.

It was Washburn's competition with Gibson's ES175, and it was made top notch. It retailed for $1,399.00 in 1989. I bought it used on 2001 for $600 in 9.5/10 condition. It has to be worth so much more than that, especially today.

Anyway, I know those things about it, anyone else heard of these? I'm wondering if the back and sides are solid wood - the figure sure looks the same on the inside as the outside.
