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 R319SWKK 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 solid
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 R319SWKK 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.
