Washburn Guitars has added the Deep Forest series, created specifically to feature acoustic guitars with exotic woods from around the world. The first collection in the Deep Forest Series is the Ebony Collection. The Deep Forest Ebony Collection includes three versions. Each features a striped ebony top, which is paired with Okoume back and sides. The combination was selected by the Washburn team to assure a tone that was warm and bold, while still delivering a focused tone that can cut through in any style of music. The three models in the Deep Forest Ebony Collection are the Deep Forest Ebony D with a standard dreadnought body; the Deep Forest Ebony FE with a slightly smaller folk-style body shape; and the Deep Forest Ebony ACE with a cutaway Auditorium body.
