J40SCE
The J40SCE is a Jumbo acoustic guitar with cutaway for superior upper fret access. It features a solid Sitka spruce top with Cathedral Peaked Scalloped-X bracing for superior tone that improves with age, beautiful Flame Maple back and sides, a mahogany neck with a Ovangkol fingerboard and bridge, gold die-cast tuners for quick, easy and accurate tuning, a Washburn tortoise pick guard and a Washburn Heritage rosette.
The J40SCE features visually stunning Flame Maple for its back and side wood. Maple is a bright sounding tone wood that works perfectly with the Jumbo body style, bringing some high end focus to this big, loud sounding guitar. Thanks to its built-in deluxe Fishman Presys+ 501T Tuner/Preamp, you’ll never need to carry around an extra tuner. The preamp features volume, bass, middle, treble and brilliance control for natural amplified acoustic tone, plus a phase switch and notch control to deal with feedback issues.

AN AMERICAN ORIGINAL
1883, Chicago. George Washburn begins a legacy of greatness with the first Washburn stringed instruments, bringing quality instruments priced for home musicians. In 1889, Washburn becomes the largest mandolin maker in America.
AGE OF INNOVATION
In the early 20th century Washburn continues to lead with quality guitars, banjos, and madolins. In 1912, Washburn releases the Lakeside Jumbo, the first dreadnought guitar. In 1930, Washburn merges with Tonk Brothers and releases the Solo Deluxe, the precursor of the auditorium style guitar and one of the best-selling guitars created.
AMPLIFIED AND ACOUSTIC
With the onset of the 1970's, Washburn releases the Wing series, our first electric models. The Wing series continues the Washburn standard by delivering a show quality instrument at a home artist price. In the 80’s and 90’s the Washburn Festival series revitalizes the art of acoustic performance, contributing to the rise of "unplugged" performances.
