logoThe Westone guitar and bass guitar resource site


This site is devoted to the Westone brand of guitars and basses made originally by Matsumoku of Japan from 1981 to 1987/88, and subsequently by SLM from 1987/88 to 1991.  Whether you already own a Westone guitar or are considering buying one, this site will  give you the most accurate information about Westone guitars and basses that you can find.

Most of the information in this site is either taken from Westone catalogues, magazine reviews or from my own guitars (I currently have 13 Westones, and have owned about 35 over the years).If the text in the description is green, it refers to a guitar I own or have owned and the info I give is 100% accurate. I try to name sources for info on other guitars and make it clear when I'm taking a best guess. I  hope you enjoy your visit

NOTE FOR EBAY SELLERS
Unfortunately there have been far too many instances where site content has been used inappropriately (Details copied from this site that do not apply to the guitar being sold) or in addition to inaccurate information, so I must set some ground rules -
