Description
 
The Vintage Series seeks to recreate or resemble some of the great Washburn instruments that were crafted in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Included are parlor sized models as well as a southern jumbo and several mandolins available in our mandolin section here. In order to create the "vibe" of a 100 year old instrument that has been well played but not abused, we have added a vintage finish and distressed hardware. Because these guitars are built using modern techniques and materials, the resulting instruments are more durable and in many cases better sounding than their century old counterparts.

The Washburn R319SWKK Parlor acoustic guitar packs some amazing old time, vintage punch in a brand new parlor-sized 6-string. But don't let its small size fool you. The natural acoustic tones and dynamic range of this Washburn guitar will leave you speechless.

The Washburn Parlor is a small-bodied guitar that packs in a surprising amount of volume and punch for its size. The popularity of these guitars peaked between the late 19th century until the 1950s, however, they are making a strong resurgence. Because of the size and incredible projection, many blues and folk musicians have used smaller-bodied guitars like the Washburn
R314KK Parlor Guitar with much success over the years and permanently stapled them as a true-blue American folk guitar.

The secret to its amazing tone and projection lies in its wood. The spruce top and trembesi body create balanced tone with lots of dynamic range, not to mention with a beautiful appearance as well. The dovetail neck joint adds strength to the guitar, and helps the overall tone. The Washburn R314KK guitar's mahogany neck and the ebony bridge and fretboard add sturdiness to the instrument and clarity to the overall sound. The 24-3/4" scale, 48mm nut width, 16" radius and V neck shape provides comfort when accessing the acoustic guitar's 18 frets.


Dressed in an aged satin finish, and featuring die-cast tuners and chrome hardware, the Washburn Parlor guitar looks like something right out of a museum, with a timeless tone that will never grow old. Order yours today and hear the incredible sound of a parlor. Includes case.

3 of 5 Not what I was hoping for April 9, 2017
Reviewer: Mary Catherine Paine from Bridgeport, CT United States  
Pluses: It's a lovely little guitar with a very nice sound.

Minuses: It feels a little imbalanced to me, as the V-shaped neck is standard width and heavy while the small body is quite lightweight.
Also, the finish is advertised as vintage matte, and pictured as distressed/honey colored; there is nothing vintage about the dark brown finish of this instrument.

I played a 100-year-old Washburn parlor sized guitar for over 30 years, and was hoping to find something similar. This isn't it.
