Washburn EA15 Festival Series Acoustic-Electric Guitar Iced Tea Burst

Description

The Washburn EA15 acoustic-electric guitar is a highly capable instrument ready for any stage or studio. Featuring a mini-jumbo cutaway body with a stunning flamed maple top, catalpa back and sides and Washburn’s EQ4T preamp system with built-in tuner, the EA15 delivers balanced tone and plug-in-ready performance. The 1-11/16″ nut width and 25-1/2″ scale length provide comfortable playability, while the cutaway allows easy access to upper frets.

EQ4T Preamp Provides Total Tone Control

The EA15 comes equipped with Washburn’s EQ4T preamp, designed in collaboration with electronics pioneer Barcus Berry. Featuring an onboard tuner, bass/mid/treble EQ controls and notch filter, the EQ4T provides comprehensive tone shaping for any performance setting. Connect the 1/4″ hi-Z output to your amplifier or the XLR lo-Z output to a PA system.

Mini-Jumbo Cutaway Body Delivers Articulate Tone

The EA15’s mini-jumbo cutaway body produces a focused yet punchy tone with clear articulation. The cutaway provides comfortable access to upper frets for intricate solos or chord melodies. The flamed maple top adds visual flair while contributing to a balanced acoustic voice. Quarter-sawn spruce bracing enhances projection and tonal balance.

Catalpa Back and Sides Provide Acoustic Resonance

The EA15’s catalpa back and sides produce a resonant yet controlled acoustic tone to complement the articulate flamed maple top. Catalpa is a hardwood similar to mahogany, with a slightly brighter tone. Combined with the mini-jumbo body shape, the catalpa back and sides help create the EA15’s balanced acoustic voice.
