Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Washburn’s natural-finish right-handed jumbo acoustic-electric combines a solid Sitka spruce top, flame maple back and sides, and a mahogany neck with an Ovangkol fingerboard and bridge. The single cutaway provides access to the upper frets across its 20-fret neck. For amplified use, its Fishman undersaddle transducer and onboard 501T tuner/preamp put tuning, level, EQ, brilliance, phase, and notch controls on the guitar—useful when moving between acoustic playing and a plugged-in set.

- Players needing onboard tuning and EQ controls for an amplified acoustic performance.
