Got this as a gift (brand new) a good six years ago or more. It's a beautiful guitar, plays great, with a nice low action for fingerpicking (though not so low it can't be strummed with some force).

It's got a great action, at the perfect height to switch between fingerpicking and strumming. I particularly like the shape with the highly accentuated curves as it fits great against my body. |

It's not quite a classical guitar, but it plays more like a classical than any non-classical that I've ever played. Many people have played my guitar and every one comments on how well it plays and the beautiful tone it has. I even have a few friends who own high-end Martins who commented on how beautifully it plays. |

Quality |

It's not a particularly loud guitar, which I prefer, but it's not necessarily great for playing loudly. The sound quality has been excellent, though. After five years of owning it, it got its first sound issue (really, its first problem all around) last year when it started buzzing on a single string at one of the higher frets (fairly easy fix though). |

Incredibly reliable. It holds a tune better than any guitar I've ever played. Recently left it for several months in a brutally hot attic in the case and came back after summer and it was in PERFECT tune. Even requires little re-tuning after changing the strings, though that's probably more about the quality of the strings. The only problems I've had with is the one buzzing fret (see quality) and a slight expansion of the side so that it sticks out just a bit beyond the front. This problem has been extremely minimal, only manifests in high humidity, does not look to be worsening, and has not affected the sound quality at all. |

a good solid top with Walnut sides for the price,this guitar was a real find
I wanted the jumbo body for a deep all over sound and this guitar has it
only down side is the top varnish is a little thick but on the plus side it
has taken some knocks and faired pretty well
It had no pick up to it so I added a single coil fishman just wired to the end pin jack no and the sound is still just the best,just plug in and play

The neck is the most comfortable Ive played on an acoustic that was what first drew me to this guitar,I play with a heavy pick and very heavy strings and it stays in tune perfectly, |

As with all acoustics this guitar is getting better the more I play it
Its starting to sound really really good these days and starting to lose that new sound if that makes any sense! |

This guitar has never let me down on stage/recording or practise
Ive had it now for 3 years and the top hasnnullt cracked or stressed at all

I knew i wanted a Jumbo acoustic and it happened to be the washburn due to the feel of the neck,
Ive played alot of top end acoustics and they really dont come close to my Washburn I think I have found the perfect acoustic companion
if I was playing enought I would certainly buy another one as a back up |
