Description

Washburn produced the WA20-U as a compact acoustic amplifier within its acoustic amplification line, positioned for performers and those rehearsing with acoustic/electric guitars.

The unit operated at 12 watts and housed a 6.5-inch speaker. It included a chorus effect and a headphone jack, providing a degree of monitoring flexibility for quiet practice. The brown finish distinguished its appearance.

Owners seeking servicing, replacement speaker components, or effect circuitry repairs should consult a qualified amplifier technician familiar with small-format acoustic amplification.

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.

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.

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.
