Value-packed Acoustic-electric Bass from Washburn
Washburn acoustic-electric basses have been nestled among the finest offerings in the industry for years, and the AB5K-A exemplifies why. Its projective spruce top is augmented on all sides — literally — by the warm and rich sound of mahogany back, sides, and neck. The AB5K-A also features a 32-inch long scale neck plus chrome die-cast tuners that give you rock-solid tuning and a comfortable playing experience along with its engineered wood fretboard. Finally, the AB5K-A features Washburn’s own Q-PH onboard electronics, complete with controls for volume, phase, and a 4-band EQ. Topped off by D’Addario EPBB170 Phosphor Bronze strings, the Washburn AB5K-A Acoustic-electric bass guitar from Sweetwater delivers renowned Washburn quality and tone right out of the box.

If it ain’t broke …
A spruce top with mahogany back and sides makes for a classic tonewood combination, and for a good reason. The warm, harmonically lush tone of mahogany is projected wonderfully by a resonant spruce top that adds a little color of its own. This is precisely the tone you’ll get with the Washburn AB5K-A. Plus, the onboard Q-PH electronics ensure that every detail of this beloved tonewood combination gets heard loud and clear.
