Subject:
No Disappointments!
Quality:
It is very well made, stays in tune quite well, and certainly lives up to the fine Washburn name.
Sound:
For a very small body the tone is surprisingly big. A bit on the twangy side but it will make ya smile. Its tone would actually be perfect for some songs, and I wouldn't be afraid to use it to record with.
Reliability:
Only had it for a year, and I treat it with the same respect I treat my LP, Strat, and Ovation, so it's holding up very well thus far.
Overall:
If you play guitar, you either have one of these or don't realize you need one. I reach for mine far more often than any of my other four guitars. The case also makes this a worthwhile purchase, allowing for easy and confident portability. Once you have one you'll never want to be without one again!
Playability and Feel:
While it's obviously neck-heavy, that's not an issue when playing. It is so convenient when you want to play along with a commercial jingle or something and need your guitar RIGHT NOW. Some intonation issues playing chords higher up the neck, but it has a truss rod.
Action:
Better than anticipated.
Skill Level:

RJM from New Bern, NC
Quality:
The overall build quality is impressive, given the price.
Sound:
The tone? Well I think the tone is unique. Obviously, there is little low end resonance due to its size, but it sounds very good; like I said....unique.
Reliability:
I'll let you know after I've had it for awhile.
Overall:
This guitar is a fantastic value for the price. Very good build, nice finish and an overall attractive look.
Playability and Feel:
This guitar feels very light, but is somewhat off balance because of the small body size. I quickly became accustomed to this characteristic.
Tone:
The RO10 has an overall pleasant tone.
Finish:
The flat finish is interesting and very well done. I have no complaints here.
Action:
What a surprise! The setup right out of the box was very good. I felt no need to tweak it.

Great guitar fan from Osseo WI USA
Subject:
Great travel guitar
Quality:
Seems like this guitar should stand up to years of playing.
Sound:
Sound much more like a real guitar than a small travel guitar.
Reliability:
No problems so far. Seems very well made.
Overall:
This guitar has turned out to be far more than I expected. It is great for just playing around the house.
Playability and Feel:
You can feel the quality of the build as you play it yet it's nice and light and easy to play.
Finish:
Nic looking guitar. I can't see any flaws.
Action:
Very good. Easy to play but with no fret buz etc.
