Experience an exceptionally fluid playing experience paired with traditional acoustic resonance with the Washburn Comfort WCG10CE Electro-Acoustic Guitar.
Belonging to Washburn's innovative Comfort Series, this Grand Auditorium instrument directly resolves a classic design problem by featuring a smoothly contoured forearm bevel. This specialised body edge eliminates the sharp wood corner that often digs into your picking arm, letting your hand rest in a completely natural striking position for hours of fatiguing practice or live performing.
This versatile, cutaway electro-acoustic instrument is well suited to gigging singer-songwriters, fingerstyle guitarists, and acoustic rock performers. By combining a highly ergonomic body layout with a reliable onboard pickup system, it allows you to step directly from your writing desk onto a loud stage without sacrificing your physical playing comfort or your acoustic tonal clarity.
Select Spruce Top for Crisp, Dynamic Clariity
The acoustic engine of the WCG10CE is centred around its select spruce soundboard. Chosen for its brilliant projection and quick dynamic response, the spruce top ensures every note sounds crisp, focused, and articulate. Supported internally by traditional cathedral-peak scalloped X bracing, the top vibrates freely to maximise acoustic volume. This setup allows your subtle fingerpicking lines to retain excellent separation while providing plenty of headroom when you transition into heavy, aggressive strumming patterns.
Balanced Grand Auditorium Mahogany Architecture
Forming the back and sides of the guitar, premium mahogany brings an excellent midrange warmth and long-lasting sustain to balance the spruce top's natural bite. The Grand Auditorium body profile serves as an ideal structural compromise, serving up a fuller low-end response than a concert guitar while remaining significantly more agile and comfortable than a bulky dreadnought. A sleek, curving Venetian cutaway is built into the upper bout, granting your fretting hand effortless access to the higher frets for complex modern fingerstyle arrangements or expressive solo work.
Stage-Ready Fishman Electronics
When an acoustic performance requires amplification, the WCG10CE hooks up effortlessly using an onboard Fishman Presys II preamp system. This premium electronics and under-saddle piezo package accurately captures the natural acoustic voice of the tonewoods, avoiding the artificial, brittle character common in basic pickup designs. The side-mounted preamp panel provides quick access to a master volume control, a two-band EQ for fast treble and bass adjustment, and a phase switch to fight feedback on loud stages. An integrated digital tuner keeps your tuning immaculate between songs without the need for external floor pedals.
Comfortable Satin-Finished Neck
Long-form playing comfort extends to the fretting hand thanks to a satin-finished mahogany neck that eliminates drag or stickiness during quick position changes. The neck is capped with an engineered wood fingerboard, providing excellent physical stability that resists twisting or bowing during seasonal temperature and humidity changes. A traditional bone nut and matching bone saddle ensure maximum string vibration transmission directly into the soundboard for enhanced harmonic resonance.
