Subject:A Great Guitar For the price
Quality: Washburn has a good reputation for moderate to good quality entry level instruments. This one definetely qualifies. I am a semi-pro repairman, mostly setups and mild fretwork and this guitar is a really good value
Reliability: Being that I just got it for a student I guess time will tell. The fit and finish look reliable enough.
Overall: Overall I would rate this instrument a 4 out of 5..are there some things that could be better? of course. But a solid top with a mahogany body and bound fretboard for 300 bucks really can't be beat.
Playability and Feel: I had to tweak the neck as out of the box the playability was slightly stiff and the intonation was less than great. A few 1/4 turns with the supplied truss rod allen wrench and the neck came in about .010 relief at the 7th fret and about .090 on the low E string, which quite frankly ain't too bad. I was going to sand a few thosands off the saddle but left it for now. By the way it comes with an extra saddle, shim and bridge pin...nice!
Tone: I prefer maple or rosewood bodied guitars but for the price this guitar sound ok to good. It is more than fine for the beginner or as a second guitar to throw in the car....it even comes with a hardshell case.
Finish: Finish is nice. There was some dark spots on the binding that easily rubbed right off.
Action: Action out of the box had to be tweaked a bit but came out nice
Skill Level: Semi-Pro
