Following review text is verbal representation of numerical rating information:

Washburn can be really happy with WV 548, because they met the needs of most of musicians: A quality instrument at a fair price. This guitar is not the best in its class, but it will serve you well, and will offer you good experience for the price paid.

Feature-wise this guitar is perfect! There is no need to add or remove anything, and that is quite an achievement by Washburn, considering that it's quite hard to please every musician's desire, in order to grade an instrument such as WV 548 with such a high score when it comes to guitar features. That means that Washburn has constructed more or less a guitar with perfect features, so if you decide to buy WV 548 you will be more than happy with it.

Washburn did a good job. WV 548 is built well, the finish feels just right, the hardware is solid. While playing for a longer periods of time you can expect WV 548 to stay in tune and you will be pleased while playing, because the neck is extremely comfortable. You might find that over time metal parts will oxidize a bit, but that's normal and nothing to worry about. Washburn did a really good job with WV 548 guitar.

Playing live, WV 548 will perform well and will not let you down. It is fairly reliable instrument both in studio and on stage, and will be a long term companion, as it is built to last. Washburn has made a solid instrument that you will be happy with, and can depend on right from the start. Needs no backup as it has proven to be built really well.
