Winner
of the Guitar Player magazine EDITORS CHOICE Award as one of the best
electric solid body guitars under $1,000. This guitar smokes with all
of Washburn's top features... Buzz Feiten Tuning System, Voice Contour
Control, Jumbo Frets, set neck, and 18:1 Grover tuners The Idol Series Gives The Most Bang for the Buck A wider base allows for a thinner body to be used without balance problems. Set neck allows a slim neck joint and offers comfortable access to the upper register. The Idol series gives guitarists more bang for their buck. A lightning fast neck with jumbo frets compliments the slimline body, and Washburn's Voice Contour Control will give you any tone you desire. V.C.C. changes the tone of the pickup by blending coils rather than the standard filter. Single coil type sounds and humbucking type sounds and anything in between is possible. The Buzz Feiten Tuning System was created by session music player Buzz Feiten (he performed at Woodstock with Paul Butterfield, so he is a veteran) in 1998 which simply put, allows the guitar to play in tune with itself. You do not tune the guitar any differently than before, but for best results, use the Korg DT-7 Tuner, which has Buzz Feiten settings on it. Buzz slightly adjusted the nut and recalculated intonation settings, the guitar now plays beautifully in tune with itself up and down the neck. Try a Bar D chord and you will immediately hear the difference. That's why guitar God's like Van Halen, Robert Fripp, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Adrian Belew and many others have switched to this system. Washburn is the only major maker of guitars to offer this feature standard on its best models. Over one hundred years, Washburn has built more than just great guitars, they've built a history, The Washburn tradition of craftsmanship and innovation has withstood the tests of economics, brand competition and fashion. Since being founded in Chicago in 1883, the name Washburn has been branded into the world's finest stringed instruments. If your interest in guitars borders on passion, you will settle for nothing less than a Washburn The Idol Guitar was selected as an Editor's Choice in the July 2001 Issue of Guitar Player magazine among 13 models under $1,000.
