Washburn R70BCEK Richie Owens Acoustic Electric Signature Resonator Guitar
This great guitar came to us directly from Washburn as a factory blem. My tech went over it from top to bottom and it plays great and looks great. We could not find any major flaws on this unit. A Fantastic Resonator for Discerning Performers You’ll have all the rich, growling resonator tone you can handle with the Washburn R70BCEK guitar. Designed with Nashville musician Richie Owens, the R70BCEK is a resonator that’s ready for the rigors of the road. The distinctive tone comes from the hand-spun Scheerhorn resonator cone which nails that unmistakable sound of a vintage resonator. A single F-hole, custom coverplate, and pickguard give the R70BCEK a different look than most resonators on the market. And with the built-in Lace Sensor pickup, you’re well equipped for crisp, clear plugged-in performance.
