Washburn WLO12SE Natural Gloss 2017 Orchestra Electro-Acoustic Guitar

Here for sale we have a Washburn WLO12SE electro-acoustic guitar in Natural Gloss finish. Built in China in 2017, this Orchestra body guitar features a solid Mahogany top, laminate Mahogany back and sides, cathedral peaked scalloped-X bracing, a 20 fret Mahogany neck, an Ovangkol fingerboard, along with a Fishman Presys II 301T preamp system with controls for volume, treble, bass, phase, and an onboard tuner.

The satin finish neck plays well, having polished to a semi-gloss through previous use. It offers a smooth and comfortable playing surface, with a moderate profile that the vast majority of players will get along with. The timeless Orchestra body style is a lovely medium size, perfect for players who don't want a guitar as cumbersome as a dreadnought, but don't want to compromise on depth of tone and dynamic response.

The WLO12SE has a well balanced voicing, with a warm low end, a tight yet smooth midrange and a clear and precise high end that offers brilliant clarity. The guitar resonates very well and is responsive to dynamics,feeling sensitive to the player’s touch. This is enhanced wonderfully by the Fishman pickup system, which provides just enough control to shape your tone to any playing situation without overwhelming you with knobs and sliders. Overall an excellent workhorse guitar at an affordable price.

Aesthetic Condition:

Headstock: Overall very good condition, the top edge presents mild indentation and chipping, with a chip to the bass side visible from the front face. Light scratching to the front face is visible under direct light, as is common with high gloss finishes. 

Neck: Overall good condition. The rear of the neck presents light indentation not piercing the finish along the register, most notably to the bass side. The fretboard shows noticeable wear across the register, most noticeable to the treble side. This does not particularly detract from the overall playability of the instrument. 

Body: Overall very good condition. The front face shows a small lacquer crack to the treble side edge of the lower bout. All surfaces show light scratching when viewed under direct light, as is common with high gloss finishes.

This guitar has had a fret level and a re-crown to ensure the best playability possible. There is moderate material remaining for any light fret work the new owner may wish to perform.
