My guitar is an F62, which is is identical to the D62 (in the 1981 catalog page to the left) except the F62 just has a folk body shape. The review below is for a D62 but you get the idea.Features:
I bought this guitar 22 years ago. It's a Martin copy dreadnought. Looks identical except it says Washburn on the headstock and the Pickguard has a different shape. Rosewood sides, back, fretboard, spruce top.
Sound:
This guitar sounds identical to a Martin. At the dealer, I played all the Martins and decided on this one, because it was cheaper and sounded just as good. 22 years later, it still sounds as good. My friend has a D-28 and we can't tell them apart.
Action, Fit, & Finish:
Action was a bit high, but I ground down the bridge. Top finish on this particular one was darker, richer than the others. I liked that.
Reliability/Durability:
After 22 years, its in perfect condition.
Customer Support:
Overall Rating:
I've been playing guitar for 28 years, and this is still my favorite guitar.
