To commemorate Washburn Guitars' long history of acoustic
guitar making, they are releasing this gorgeous RSD135-D 135th
Anniversary Limited Edition Super Auditorium 6-string acoustic
guitar.
Not only does the construction and aesthetic appointments call
to mind Washburn's classic 1937 5246 Super Auditorium, but its
addition of a Neutral-C neck profile and high-quality tuners ensure
it's a guitar you'll love to play. Add in such high-end tonewood
touches as a solid Sitka spruce top and alpine moon spruce bracing,
and the RSD135-D 135th Anniversary Limited Edition will sound as
stunning as it looks.
Inspired by history
The RSD135-D 135th Anniversary Limited Edition acoustic guitar pays direct homage to Washburn's 1937 5246 Super Auditorium 6-string. This big-bodied instrument sings with the same bold and loud tone that offers plenty of headroom for hard strummers and flat pickers. And thanks to modern updates, such as a Neutral-C neck profile and Graphtech Ratio tuners, the guitar remains extremely comfortable and reliable. But the Washburn Custom Shop is only crafting 135 pieces for worldwide distribution.

Spruce and mahogany combine for rich tone
The solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides on the RSD135-D 135th Anniversary Limited Edition Super Auditorium are certainly eye catching, and they're a recipe for outstanding acoustic tone too. Expect rich and punchy power and a complex frequency range from the solid Sitka top. The mahogany imparts the guitar with a warm and dry ring that allows the detail of every string to ring through. And because it has a solid wood top, you can expect to hear even more harmonic richness over the years.

Alpine Moon spruce bracing
The bracing inside of the Washburn RSD135-D 135th Anniversary Limited Edition Super Auditorium is unlike anything you'll find in most guitars. Carefully tuned from alpine moon spruce, this scalloped bracing minimizes the rigidity of the spruce top and allows it to vibrate more freely. "Moonwood" is sourced from spruce trees that were fell during a specific phase of the lunar cycle, believed to add a bigger, bolder, and more balanced tone to your RSD135-D acoustic.
