Review Washburn J12SN
 
 
 

Review by a visitor on Dec 14, 2005




Hanks music in denmark street £299 December 2003,looking for a good acoustic for solo gigs and song writing

 
 
  Features  
 
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

 
 
 
  Playability  
 
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,
 
 
 
  Quality  
 
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!
 
 
 
  Durability  
 
This guitar has never let me down on stage/recording or practise
Ive had it now for 3 years and the top hasn't cracked or stressed at all


 
 
 
  Overall  
 
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
