Washburn Bella Tono Allure SC56S - Gloss Natural Review

Omg....wow!! I highly recommend this guitar

I am so absolutely happy with my purchase, I can hardly believe it. I've picked up quite a few guitars in 34 of years playing so I've seen a lot of frets, necks, overall quality, etc. This little box is incredible for $669. I wanna handle it with gloves. The craftsmanship is stunning. Quite literally, there's not a single flaw that I can find. But it gets way better... It's quite… read more a light acoustic. One reason being is its not coated in a heavy finish. The solid top and the rounded edge come together perfectly and you didn't know you need one of those rounded edges until you try it - they're nice and you don't even notice it, for good reason. The tuners are very good. Well above average. The nut is just right. The action is perfect. Fret quality and finish seems perfect. It still gets better. How it plays and sounds is just ridiculous. It resonates loud, crisp, clear, and true with it's solid top. It's a joy to play so far because the intonation up the neck seems very accurate. It doesn't vibrate in the way that a slightly out of intonation guitar can do, the notes are clear and intonated up the neck. I'm very picky and particular about intonation and this passes all expectation - sounds downright perfect. It's makin' me write those whole review, haha. The electronics are great. I'm picky about onboard acoustic-pickup systems. I'm very happy with this system. Great onboard tuner which is always good. I'm running it through a Helix LT and it sounds very, very good.It just surpasses all my expectations for $ and I really felt it deserved a glowing review. My first review on a guitar purchase from Sweetwater after many, actually. If you're on the fence about this one, I say go for it :)

Bought 'Cause It's Pretty

Beautiful guitar. I have 2 other Washburns that have been my go to instruments for some time. When it arrived, I couldn't believe how comfortable it was to play and the big sound that smaller body could produce. Amps great with great tone. Washburn has another winner!!!

Awesome !!!

This is an awesome guitar. It plays great With the set up done by sweetwater. It is very comfortable to play because of the shaped area that fits into your underarm. Very loud volume unplugged. I'm playing it through a fender blues jr amplifier. The acacia wood on the back and sides give it a heavenly sound combined with the spruce top. The mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard.… read more Ebony bridge on the C shape neck. The bridge and nut are bone add to the to the amazing tone. I highly recommend this guitar. I've been playing for 40 years and have had a Taylor, Breedlove and an Ovation. None of those were as good as this Washburn !!!

Perfect guitar... Perfect price

WOW! I love this guitar. It sounds and looks amazing. And the shape is so comfortable to play. I was really unsure if I was going to like this guitar because I was worried it wouldn't be able to produce the rich tones I was use to hearing on my previous guitar. I'm glad I took the chance because this guitar far exceeded my expectations. And the tone is amazing that a novice recognized… read more I was playing a new guitar by the sound. And the sleek natural body is beautiful but won't take away from gorgeous design on the fretboard. I'd recommend this guitar to anyone in any stage of their guitar journey.
