Description

Washburn produced the EA15ITB-U as part of its Festival Series, a line of acoustic-electric guitars designed around stage and performance use. The model occupied an accessible position within the Festival range, combining an onboard electronics system with a cutaway body style suited to players who needed upper-fret access.

The guitar was built with a flame maple top and catalpa back and sides. The mini jumbo cutaway body housed the EQ4-T preamp and tuner system, providing onboard tone shaping and chromatic reference without an external unit. The Ice Tea Burst finish was applied over the flame maple top, allowing the wood's figuring to remain visible through the coloured gradient.

Owners requiring setup work, nut or saddle replacement, or compatibility checks on the EQ4-T electronics system should consult a qualified guitar technician or luthier familiar with acoustic-electric instruments.

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.

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.
