The Washburn AB5K-A features a spruce top with mahogany back and sides.
The cutaway body shape lets you get to the upper frets with ease while the 32" short scale mahogany neck is a breeze to play.
When it's time to plug in you'll be all set with the onboard Washburn QPH electronics that offer volume and phase control as well as a 4 band EQ.
The AB5K-A includes a padded gig bag for your convenience and the instrument's protection.
Watch any episode of the classic MTV Unplugged show and the bass being played is most likely a Washburn. Those artists as well as today’s top performers choose Washburn because of the style, quality, tone & playability of our acoustic basses. If you want people to know you’re serious about your amplified acoustic tone, you’ll play Washburn.
