Been busy
Hey!
Been busy with work and stuff. I had previously found some information on a different site...of course I can't find the link now. The problem with the bridge lifting on Washburn acoustics happens because the guitar body is finished before bridge is attached. This prevents good adhesion to the top of the guitar. The store manager tried to give me the old "its perfectly normal and within tolerances" line, and even told me it was my fault because I over humidified, and also probably under humidified. I took him into their controlled environment guitar room and we found another 1/2 dozen guitars that had the same problem...some even worse than mine.
Perhaps Washburn has corrected the problem, but I wouldn't bet on this with my money. I believe the model you refer to was discontinued in 2005.
Best regards,
