Offering rich tone, stunning looks, and an extremely comfortable body design, the Festival EA55G from Washburn is ready for studio or stage. With a mini jumbo body that will appeal to small players, beginners, or those seeking a highly portable, focused guitar sound, this versatile six-string acoustic/electric hybrid guitar sports a beautiful exotic koa top and a smooth mahogany neck that looks and sounds fantastic.
Durable techwood is used for the fretboard and bridge, along with gold die-cast tuners, providing excellent durability for travel. And the single cutaway on the body makes it supremely easy to access the higher frets for any size player. The built-in Barcus-Berry LX-4 preamp technology is a lifesaver for the gigging guitarist, delivering 3-band EQ tone control, presence control, a volume knob, and an integrated chromatic tuner.
Comfortable Mini Jumbo Cutaway Body
The Festival EA55G s mini jumbo body is easier to play for those that find the larger dreadnought and grand auditorium shapes uncomfortable. The EA55G is suited for smaller players, young learners, or musicians looking for the more focused and intimate voice that a small bodied guitar provides. The guitar is built with a cutaway, so that access to the upper frets is a breeze.
Exotic Koa Top
The distinctive Koa top gives the Festival EA55G an exotic look that stands out. Matched with catalpa back and sides and a mahogany neck, the EA55G s rich tone belies its comfortably smaller size.
Barcus-Berry Electronics
The Festival EA55G is equipped with a preamp and pickup system from Barcus-Berry, the developer of the first-ever piezo crystal transducer for musical instruments in 1963. With features such as an onboard tuner, EQ controls, and feedback resistance, the EA55G offers exceptional plugged-in performance.
