"...you may be torn between this and an Epiphone when the time comes to go shopping for a new single-cut".


Washburn's electric product line recently received a makeover, updating and upgrading popular models such as the acclaimed Washburn Idol. Guitarist magazine this month review's the top-of-the-range Idol Pro model (WINPRO) at just £348 RRP.

"This is a thoroughly modern single-cut, not only in style but also in tone".

"Still, that's what we'd expect, and full chords ring out very nicely indeed...full-on rock riffs sound great".

"Strapped on, the guitar's well balanced, the wide flat neck is great to play and it looks pretty cool too. Win indeed".

"Washburns at this end of the market are often competitively priced, and that's the case here. £348 seems almost impossibly meagre considering what the guitar offers".

"Great neck; good tones; great price! Affordable, good-looking and a great player - an impressive guitar".

The full review can be found in the May Issue of Guitarist magazine (354) on sale now. The Washburn Idol Pro WINPRO is also available now at £348.
