The Washburn tradition of craftsmanship and innovation has withstood the tests of economics, brand competition and fashion. Since their birth in Chicago in 1883, the name Washburn has been branded into the world's finest stringed instruments.

If your interest in guitars borders on passion, you will settle for nothing less than a Washburn. Nuno Bettencourt, Dimebag Darrell, Roger Waters, Bootsy Collins, and Jennifer Batten have the distinction of being some of the few artists ever to be honoured with a Washburn signature model guitar, as shown on their signature series pages.

For over one hundred years, Washburn has built more than just great guitars, they've built a history.
