collapse expand iconDescription

Washburn's Comfort Series all consider ergonomic solutions to make the playing experience more comfortable. The WCGM55K is a 7/8 size, satin-finished, "Mini" Grand Auditorium body acoustic guitar with a koa top, back and sides. Bound in walnut, it features a rounded-over "Binding Relief" underneath the player's forearm area and a "Comfort Carve-Away" at the upper shoulder, which allows for superior access to the higher frets. The mahogany neck has an ebony fingerboard with dot inlays, which ties in nicely with the ebony bridge. The headstock features a maple Washburn logo, as well as gold tuners with ebonite buttons. The gorgeous parquet rosette is made of alternating maple and mahogany.

The WCGM55K-D sounds much larger and far more musical than its smaller size would lead you to believe. Crafted with premium materials, it makes an excellent recording or travel guitar.

A gig bag is included.

    I've had this guitar for 8 months or so. It plays nicely, has good tone. A few months ago started having a buzzing issue on the g string. I'm sure it can be fixed but it's really annoying.

    Hi, I am torn between this model and a tailor GS mini. Intrigued about the comfort bevel and think it would useful for me. As an advanced beginner, will I really notice the difference between the two?  I'm sure the solid top helps the gs but its also a bit cheaper which I'm a fan of.

    1)That bevel is nice and there is a noticeable difference. ( "the solid top helps the gs but its also a bit cheaper ". The GS Mini is a bit more. "As an advanced beginner", I don't know at what level you hear. A solid top is better. Some hear a bigger difference than others.

    Can you please tell me the thickness (depth from top to back) of the body of this instrument?  I have a physical condition that makes this an important consideration in the purchase of a guitar.  Thanks.
