No complaints about my washburn… maybe its the name, like some said, but i dont think its that name thats the problem as much as other names drawing them in… if fender was on the head, it would be much more popular…
I played a squire… literally as bad as a $100 johnson.
Really surprised at how good the intonation is on that at the tenth and eleventh frets, even the seventh for that matter!
29 years ago when I started playing, Washburn was the ultimate powerhouse and they were cheap. When I was around 18, they had a lot of solid-bodies with quilt and other figured maple tops, Wilkinson tremolos and pickups, and for $300 it was like getting a $1500 24-fret Jackson.
I've had an Oscar Schmidt-Washburn EO-40B for 20 years I'm in the process of restoring to like new. If they hadn't faded over the last 10 years, I would have expected that guitar to be worth $750 which is where they were at about that long ago. It's too bad they faded from popularity.
I have a Washburn D34s twelve fretter for picking and a D52sw for strumming (a beautifully balanced guitar) both much loved and treasured I also have a couple of Tacoma acoustics that are also under rated ….. there are some great bargains out there if you are patient.
I have a western red cedar top , spalted maple model that rivals all my high dollar guitars . In fact I travel with the Washburn because I can replace it in case of accidents

Just took delivery of one of these today. I think it’s going to become my favorite guitar.
I watched this twice. Am I missing something? Did he ever answer the question, why washurns are so underrated????
I absolutely loved your playing. Is that song posted anywhere for me to listen to?
First guitar was a Washburn. £200 great way to start ????????
I had the same issue with the action being too high when I was younger on my Washburn! Changed it months ago and … what a difference playing. lol.
Washburn so many memories for me, because my first ever real guitar was a old Washburn I loved that guitar everything I ever learned was on my Washburn
I picked up a Bella Tono Studio 9 last week, and while it's not a boomer of a guitar due to it's being a mini-jumbo, the midrange tones from it are just stunningly beautiful sounding. It was under $200, and frankly, it SOUNDS like it cost 10X that amount.
I still have a red washburn. Had it 30 years, bought it for £250 on sale for half price at the time. I loved the sound instantly. Went online (early days of the internet) to a guitar forum to see people trashing that model for some reason. For me Washburn is the sound of Americana and Folk music. I'm still at a loss 30 years on why so many people hated this brand/model.
Click bait title. You don't answer Jack, and you spend the whole time stroking your ego.
I've got 2 Washburn guitars a acoustic festival series,and a hb32 dm
Just bought my first Washburn. A 2002 George Washburn Festival Series EA-45s. This is by far the most high end guitar I own, and I put that over my Gibson Flying V. Stock Grover 18-1 tuners with the Florentine style cutaway. I can't believe I was able to snag it off Facebook marketplace on the low . Great video and beautiful guitar
Washburn his garbage. I worked with Washburn employees at HAMER. You absolutely have no idea what you’re talking about.
Is this dude a crack head or what! Every video is like he’s geeking!
I am still playing my 30 year old Wasburn D-13/S along with all the other acoustic guitars I own. Your video has inspired me to have a pick up installed in my D13/S as I like to do some studio recordings, and I have been using my other electric acoustic/guitars to do studio, while the D13/S sits there…weeping lol. I'm thinking of installing a K&K pickup, which I have on one of my Martin Road Series…love the K&K setup. Congrats on your new axe, she's a beauty for sure….enjoy !!!
They're the only brand I play. I have 7.
I love my Washburn! My parents didn’t have much money and I really needed a decent guitar with a pickup to go out and play shows. my first guitar that I learned on a very cheap Johnson just wasn’t going to cut it and my parents were able to get enough money together to get me a Washburn acoustic electric and I loved it, it plays great sounds great and 15 years later I still enjoy playing it.
My first guitar was a Washburn. I put it on layaway, and was over the moon when I finally got it. It’s been broken where the neck meets the body 3 times. The first time, I had it professionally repaired. The other two times, I just glued and clamped it myself. It still sounds good.
This the first video I've seen from you, and being a rabid NBA fan as well as an avid guitar player, you really caught me off guard with the James Harden reference! In the BEST WAY POSSIBLE! Long live The Beard! :'D
To me, Washburn guitars especially their acoustics, are among the best sounding and best made.
You've just acquired a 'Beauty' ! Well done ! Luv the Tones ! Washburn ? Mine, acoustic only, is a "Goodie"… Has that special 'something' that my others do not and luv all my guitars… ????…
Yes…………….. Love Washburn…… Getting a 1990s MG42 next week….. Why not? …….. Hope you are doing well.
Does anyone know how to determine manufacture date for a Washburn? I have a C-60 classical, serial # 2132.
Are they technically built by cort?
so… that was one fluffy video. seven minutes of…nothing. the only actual detail you provide is the solid sitka spruce top. not a single word in comparison with a competitor, not a word about the neck, back, sides, tuners, bracing, or fret board…
fail.
Washburn had it’s best time between early 1990s and 2010. Now the company is almost dead. No customer service, no new models and USA production is just the same few Nuno models 🙁
He said his was cheap @ 500$ mine was just 100$ the quality feels and sounds great so far
I’ve watched you for a while now, I always like your way of getting your ideas across. I have found a guitar on YouTube that I can’t find any English translation for. It’s a Strinberg SD-301 galaxy series.. I played one in North Carolina and loved it. ($645) but not that much.. Could you check it out and see if you could possibly review it on line… I really love the built in effects which first caught my attention.. thanks for all you do for the player community…
Ask Nuno Bettencourt that. A guitar brand that doesn't charge you for the name.
The best quality-price guitars in the world.
In the first video I saw of yours I thought the political comment was unwarrented, but after seeing a couple more videos I see it's a gimmick. And funny, dry but funny. I'm on board now. LOL
