Washburn HB36 Pre-Loved

The HB36 Vintage is Washburn's deluxe version of its HB35 guitar and is an aged/distressed semi-hollow design aimed at Jazz, Blues or Rock players. There's no denying this guitar is a real winner in the looks department and catches the eye with its light ageing and impressive finish. Aimed at the mid to low-mid price market it has a great deal of competition but aims to give a high level of quality to cost ratio.

The HB36 Vintage is constructed using lovely flame maple back and sides with a spruce top, featuring a dark sunburst finish that is aged beautifully, giving a lived-in feel that is very appealing to the eye and ear. The maple 22 fret neck is finished in similar fashion and topped with an ebony fretboard adorned with split block inlays, all topped off with multi-laminate binding around the body and neck. Adding to the aged appearance Washburn has chosen very attractive distressed gold hardware in the form of a tune-o-matic bridge with stop bar tailpiece, Grover Rotomatic 18:1 ratio tuners and in-house Washburn 621 and 623 neck and bridge pickups. To complete the look, an ebony pickguard and knobs are provided, giving a very impressive looking overall package. As is to be expected with this kind of guitar, a solid maple block runs down the centre of the body, giving added sustain and feedback suppression at higher volumes.
