Made in China
Spruce
Back & sides mahogany neck
Rosewood
Mechanical Groover
Noted that the pickguard on mine took off pretty quickly (I've never replaced)
The wood of this guitar are very nice and the quality of manufacture and marquetry are remarkable (for the price of course).
Indeed, the varnish makes the final look a bit plastoc, but at least it is robust.
UTILIZATION
On the handle, I find it rather late for a folk (that's for sure going to be electric guitarist fingers hurt, like any folk actually).
Basic action is not set correctly, I had to adjust the truss rod (little surprising for a guitar factory price first made in China). However, my settings have not changed in over 5 years, guitar matured rather well for me.
For access to acute ... Ben is a dreadnought ... Past the first 13 boxes is finished. After that it should do some contortionist.
The sound is rich in medium and very bright with an imbalance in the bass sometimes annoying. However, remain pragmatic, for the price (200 € at present), the sound is more than correct.
SOUNDS
I play a bit of everything and nothing on this guitar (folk, blues, rock, jazz ,...). Arpeggiated she defends well, the harmonics are not too dirty. Cons by its lack of bass is annoying for the big job and some blues chords.
In contrast, quietly or to accompany itches, no worries.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for over 5 years. Contrary to previous opinion, I find it very old (no mechanical problems).
Guitars I've had a bunch in his hands. I bought this guitar to have a really cheap tool to continue to play during a long trip abroad. I tried every folk guitars under 300 € (in Michenaud in Nantes) is finally it caught my attention.
What I like most about this guitar is very simple, value for money. For 200 €, it is a real wood guitar, well built, with a rather beautiful sound correct. I am now off on other models, but the Washburn D10S always drags me in to troubleshoot and I still play regularly with great pleasure even though it has nothing to do with its competitor (60's Martin D35 Rosewood Rio about 30 times expensive), for the price it is an excellent instrument.
I do not know if I would do this choice today because I do not know the new models of other brands in this price range.
