Washburn built the BTS24S-D-U as part of the Bella Tono Series, positioning it as a feature-laden acoustic within that line under the Elegante designation. The Studio body shape was designed to deliver a comfortable playing experience while producing tight lows, focused mids, and clear highs typically associated with larger body sizes.
The soundboard is solid spruce, braced with quarter-sawn scalloped bracing. Back and sides are select Pau Ferro. Ornamentation is extensive: an abalone rosette, abalone purfling with a Padauk highlight, and Ebony binding frame the top. The Mahogany neck carries a modern C profile with a satin finish and meets an Ebony fretboard inlaid with an abalone scene depicting mountains and birds in flight across 20 frets. The 25-1/2" scale length runs to an Ebony bridge, and the headstock is fitted with diecast gold tuners. Strings from the factory are D'Addario.
Owners sourcing a replacement bridge saddle or nut should verify the existing slot dimensions before ordering; the Ebony fretboard and bridge will respond well to conditioning with appropriate fretboard oils — consult a qualified luthier for guidance on abrasive polishing around the abalone inlays, as the inlay material requires care to avoid damage during routine maintenance.
STRAIGHT TALK
What Stands Out
Keep In Mind
From the people who own them
Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.
Owner photos
Put yours on the record.
The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.
What do you know about this one?
Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
