View Full DescriptionA Tsunami of Tone
Rock is dynamic. It's more than just loud distortion and steamy riffs. Although it can be that too. So, Washburn have equipped this model with Duncan designed pickups to give you the tonal versatility needed for your musical backlog. It's all in the two humbuckers. An HB101 at the neck is the ultimate all-rounder keeping your licks melodic and notes clear even at high gain, while the HB103 at the bridge was made for your high output, crunchy harmonics. And if that's still not dynamic enough for you. The push/pull function on the tone controls let you coil-split for a more searing single-coil character. Your thirst has been quenched.
Mahogany magic
It's powerful. It adds sustain. It's insanely robust. That's why Washburn have crafted the Parallaxe L260 with a mahogany body and neck. There's a certain richness in tone on an electric guitar that only mahogany can deliver giving a distinct character to your music and providing your sound with an overall sense of maturity. And you can rest assured. Because mahogany can more than handle your aggression letting you parade around the stage with all the energy you can muster.
It's also a great wood for making sure that your hand is comfortable for those transitions up and down the neck and offers the quick response needed to accommodate your fast licks and riffs. It's an impact that will heighten your performance.
Hardware that hits hard
It's planned to perfection. You can tell that Washburn have really thought out every aspect of the Parallaxe L260's hardware. They've made sure you have what you need. Starting with the Tune-o-Matic fixed bridge with a stop bar that keeps your strings locked tightly in place meaning your intonation is maintained at every point in the 24.75” scale. Every fret and every D'Addario string will give you pristine notes and chords that ring true.
