Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Washburn's F5 Apprentice Series is a right-handed, six-string folk acoustic with a spruce top, mahogany back and sides, and a natural gloss finish. Its 25.5-inch scale, 20 frets, scalloped bracing, and die-cast tuners make up the guitar's core layout. Washburn describes the spruce-and-mahogany build as delivering a full, rich tone. A hardshell case is included to help protect the instrument from knocks and scratches.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Starting with a right-handed folk acoustic while keeping the guitar protected in its included hardshell case.
