A sleek, modern design and direct-mount Duncan Designed pickups equip the Washburn Parallaxe M160 for breakneck speeds and fire-breathing tones. Its brooding matte-finished basswood body is more than matched by its swift and soulful Modern "C"-profile hard rock maple neck. Together, these form the M160's mature tonal foundation and impart its technically inclined playability. A versatile pair of coil-split humbuckers, modeled after two of Seymour Duncan's popular USA pickups, doles out generous helpings of piping-hot molten metal and crystalline single-coil chime. The M160's simple controls — a 3-way blade and push-pull master volume and tone — are fast and intuitive for finding the tones to match any session. Grover tuners, a hardtail bridge, and black hardware head to toe complete the package. Whether you're stepping up to your first technical guitar or simply looking for a modestly priced high-performance stage instrument, the Washburn Parallaxe M160 is an attractive option for players at all ends of the spectrum.
