Yesterday I finally decided on my first acoustic steel string guitar. It has taken me several months (6?) of visiting a number of stores and trying many different shapes, sizes and prices. I landed on the used 1996 Washburn that I discussed in this topic.
I was back at the store to buy something else and noticed that the guitar was still there - and discounted 30%. It was too good to resist, so I tried it a final time and brought it home.
Playing it is such a different experience from the classical guitars I’m used to and it’s very enjoyable, even if it will take some getting used to.
Here’s a picture - the color is a bit off. It’s less red and more tobacco brown in real life.
It came with a case, and from the stickers it looks like it’s been to Louisville, Kentucky at some point.
