Description

Washburn built the WCG66SCE as part of its Comfort Series, positioning it as a grand auditorium cutaway acoustic-electric. The cutaway body configuration and onboard electronics made it a practical choice for amplified performance, while the grand auditorium shape placed it toward the versatile mid-range of Washburn's acoustic line.

The top is solid cedar, with spalted maple back and sides. Internally, Washburn used quarter-sawn scalloped Sitka spruce bracing. The neck is satin mahogany, fitted with a two-way truss rod, and carries a rosewood fretboard over a 25.5" scale with 21 frets. The nut is a GraphTech Nubone unit at 43mm width. A custom wood inlay rosette finishes the top. Electronics are handled by a Fishman Presys+ preamp system with integrated tuner. The bridge is mahogany with a bound rosewood cap, and tuning machines are Grover Exclusive 18:1 ratio in black. The instrument was strung with a D'Addario EXP-16 light phosphor bronze set.

Owners requiring setup work, fret maintenance, or sourcing of compatible replacement parts — including GraphTech Nubone nut blanks at 43mm, Grover-pattern tuner bushings, or Fishman Presys+ replacement components — should consult a qualified luthier or guitar technician familiar with acoustic-electric instruments.

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.

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.
