Binding Relief and Comfort Carve-Away
The rounded forearm area and upper-shoulder carve are designed to make playing more comfortable and reach higher frets.

Independent shopping perspective
Washburn’s WCGM55K pairs a reduced 7/8-size Mini Grand Auditorium body with practical comfort shaping for a more accommodating acoustic playing position. The rounded forearm-area Binding Relief and upper-shoulder Comfort Carve-Away address contact points while opening access to the higher frets. Koa is used for the top, back, and sides, joined by a mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard, and ebony bridge. Its satin natural finish and included gig bag make it a focused option for recording or travel use.
