 WASHBURN | | ACOUSTIC: FOLK MODELS (F SERIES) | | In the late 1970s/early 1980s, Washburn offered many folk/auditorium body style counterparts to their Dreadnought series. However information is limited on these guitars. We know that the folk model is typically the same as the Dreadnought counterpart in specs, and prices are a bit lower on the folk models. Models include, but are not limited to, the F20, F25, and F27 S. Any information on these guitars can be submitted directly to Blue Book Publications, and look for updates in further editions. | | F1 SK (JOEY) | | - smaller travel guitar, solid spruce top, round soundhole, ovankol back/sides, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard with pearl dot inlay, rosewood bridge with white bridgepins, three-per-side chrome Grover tuners, available in Natural finish, mfg. summer 1998-2000. |
