Washburn

The best qualities of the bygone era, recreated in a beautiful parlor.

The Washburn R314KK parlor guitar combines the quality and beauty of Washburn's vintage series guitars with surprising affordability. The guitar is built on the parlor platform for a rustic design in a small but powerful package. The guitar starts with a spruce top and Trembesi tonewood back and sides for impressive warm tone and unique beauty right out of the box. The mahogany V-neck offers ample dexterity when chording up and down the rosewood fingerboard. The Washburn R314KK parlor guitar comes out of the box looking and feeling like a well-worn old friend. The natural finish, beautiful rope purfling, and antique distressed veneer offers a pure vintage look, while the distinctive tone woods bring out all the sound you could ask for in this blues machine.

Following the tradition of instrument making from the late 1800s, Washburn's Vintage Series guitars have been skillfully "antiqued" to resemble over 100 years of wear. This lovingly recreated version of popular stringed instruments have all the benefits of modern technology with all the romance and passion of the bygone era.

This is a nice looking guitar, it sounds really good for its size. the     action is low and it stays in tune pretty well. ive had mine for over a     year now and if it was a half of what I paid for it i would be very     happy but its just not worth it. mine has some spots around the sound     hole and the head stock that look like they just forgot to stain it. the     neck is shaped like a triangle and is very wide its not too     uncomfortable but it takes some getting used to. It also took me three     months to get it in. dont know if that was musicians friend or washburn     that caused the delay. comes with a nice case though....

Junk, save your money for real guitar

Peg head glue joint completely let go, total daylight through the neck, only thing holding the headstock to neck is the fret board! I read reviews that stated faulty glue joints and they weren't kidding. Save your money for real guitar, they look nice but that's about it. This review isn't against Musician's Friend's at all, there a good bunch to work with, this is pure Washburn's lack of quailty! Tracy Davis NC

I purchased this model about 1 year ago and have had a lot of fun with it. I have had people ask me how old it is with the relic look it has.  I really like the V neck, 12 fret neck and slotted head stock.  The action is very low and easy to play. I use the 11-52 80/20 bronze string.  The tone and volume are really good for the size.  I did have one problem with the bridge which Washburn quickly fixed at no charge. I had a Fishman Rare Earth humbucker professionally installed and it sounds fantastic through both my Genz Benz and Marshall acoustic amps.  The pickup fits nicely in the sound hole and doesn't hurt the appearance any.  I can play it in the kitchen or on the stage.

Good Guitar

At first look, many may just see an wannabe antique. But in trust, this is actually a very nice guitar. It has a volume that you wouldn't expect out of something so small, it is a very stylized and nice looking guitar, not to mention the overall tone is just something to fall in love with. It's very comfortable to play because of the small body; and despite what it appears to be, its actually a steel string guitar. We got one of this in at the guitar shop that I work, so this is all first hand experience. There are other guitars out there that may suit you for the price, but anyone shopping this range should at least give this one a chance if you can.
