News
When you think "affordable acoustic guitar," is their a specific sound that you hear in your head? How would you describe that sound? Would you use the word "inspirational"? You would if you were hearing the Washburn D10S Acoustic Guitar.

The Washburn D10S has been one of our best selling acoustic guitars for a few simple reasons: it's built tough, it looks handsome, and it sounds amazing. . . and it accomplishes all this for under $300. It even comes with a custom fitted hardshell case. It's no wonder Acoustic Guitar Magazine voted the Washburn D10S the "best guitar under $500." So how does Washburn do it?

The Sound Of Solid Spruce
By focusing on what affects the guitar's tone the most, Washburn has been able to deliver a guitar that sounds amazing while still keeping costs low. Much of the sound is owed to the use of a solid spruce top. It lets the D10S resonate and breathe with your playing, reacting like an organic instrument should. Soft notes purr, loud notes ring triumphant, and chords shine and swirl with complex harmonics and overtones. The difference between the laminate-top on most lower-priced acoustics and the solid wood top on the D10S is like the difference between black & white film and technicolor. Tonally, the spruce top pairs perfectly with mahogany back and sides, and it looks good, to boot.

A Better Playing Instrument
Great sonics aren't the only thing the D10S has going for it. Washburn made sure this acoustic six-string would be as enjoyable to play as it is to listen to by granting it a rock-solid mahogany neck with truss rod for low action. They also outfitted the D10S with super-stable grover tuners and the now-famous Buzz Feiten Tuning System. This advanced intonation system fixes the most common intonation issues that guitars of all makes suffer from. Traditional intonation is inconsistent across the length of the neck, so that open chords would sound correct, but voicings played higher on the neck would be slightly out. With the Buzz Feiten system your D10S will sound more in tune across the entire neck. It not only makes for a more in-tune guitar, but also improves the overall sound of the instrument by making sure that overtones and sympathetic frequencies resonate with each other in a musical way. You won't want to put the Washburn D10S down.

Great Package Deals From zZounds
Sure, the D10S already comes with a high-quality hardshell case, but have you thought about what else you'll need to get the most from your new guitar? zZounds has, and we've put together a few accessory packages that'll have you jamming at home or at the local coffee shop in no time flat.

Washburn D10S Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar (With Case) Reviews

"This guitar is abosolutely AMAZING!!!"
Feature:
This guitar has prettry much everything that one needs. It is a beautiful guitar with great sound!!!!!!!!

Quality:
This guitar is made very well. I have never had any problems with loose parts or anything of the sort with this guitar. It is a beautiful guitar with a great finish and can be shined up easily using a guitar rag. I have had this guitar for about two years and have traveled with it a lot and have had no mechanical or cosmetic problems with the guitar.

Value:
I would say this guitar is more than worth its price. I bought this guitar as a beginner guitar and was a little leary about the price, especially since I was a beginner. But after having this guitar for two years I would definety be willing to purchase this product again.

Desirability:
On top of sound excellent, this guitar is awesome looking as well. Especially, the black version. THis guitar has great sex appeal and provides a smooth appearance. It makes you look like the guitar player you want to be!

Sound:
This guitar provides excellent sound. I has a very crisp and clear sound to it. This is guitar that will definetly stand out when played with other guitars. Its loud and clear sound has definetly helped me refine my guitar skills by being able to better hear the mistakes made when playing. This is something I wasnt able to do when playing a variety of other guitars.

Support:
To be honest I have never actually dealt with anyone from Washburn. Maybe that says something about their product. :)

Overall:
I plan on never getting rid of this guitar, even after its days are over. Ill always keep this guitar because it was my first and my favorite. When the time comes to search for another guitar, I definetly buy another washburn, and probably the same version that I have now. I love everything about this guitar and have been nothing but satisfied with the product.

Washburn D10S Acoustic Customer Review
Quality:
When adressing this, you really have to be fair and consider price, as welll as the fact that it is mass-produced. Considering both, this product is exceptional. When I go into music shops I often look at all of the 200-600 dollar guitars to "compare". this stacks up with the quality of ANY guitar going for 300-400, is much better than anything else in the 200 class, and as good as MOST of the 400+ guitars. Is the wood as good? probably not. And there are undoubtedly other "quality" differences with bracing, etc., but. . .

Value:
Seriously, I really dont "want" to like this guitar. Something about products mass-produced in China conflicts with my wanting to be an aesthete. What I's really like to have is a "fine" hand-crafted instrument that is made out of perfectly matched and rare woods. An instrument for which extra insurance is needed. But, hey I don't have that kind of money. This is as good a value as they come.

Desirability:
In total seriousness, I really like how "plain" this instrument is. What frills it has are genuine (inlays) rather than, say, painted.

Sound:
Sounds very good, though lows are a little blunted. I've switched to some DR strings that seem to have imporived that a little. Sond is better when you consider the price.

Ease of Use:
It would probably be difficult for me to switch guitar brands because Washburn's necks are uniquely thin - a bit like an electric. However, I think this makes it easier to play. Although it comes with an action lower than most in its price range, I modified it a little more. To me it frets and plays just as well as most other guitars that cost much more.

Overall:
I'll keep this indefinitely, even if I get a more expensive instrument. It will always be used for camping, beach, or just somethig I'm not afraid my kids are going to ruin (if they do, I'll buy another).
