Washburn Guitars has made a new edition to their popular “X” series guitars by outfitting the new X50 PRO-FE with EMG active, humbucking pickups. The X50 PRO-FE features an EMG 81 Humbucker at the neck, and an EMG 85 Humbucker at the bridge. The EMG’s active electronics give the player a “hotter” signal, enabling today’s guitarist to demand tones that they need. Washburn’s X50 PRO-FE’s EMG pickups produce tones ranging from shimmering cleans to crunching distortion.
In addition to the new pickups, the X50 PRO-FE also boasts a cosmetic update from the standard X50 Pro, sporting a flamed maple top. The flamed archtop of the guitar in Trans Black ensures the natural grain of the maple is exposed to the eye. The X50 PRO-FE’s rosewood fingerboard has a smooth and understated look, and an even smoother feel when played.
