The Hawk has been reborn, inspired by Washburn’s iconic Wing Series guitars from 1978. Crafted in Washburn’s USA Custom shop, the Hawk pushes the limits of a legendary design with enhancements for modern players.
The reborn Hawk features an ash body with carved maple top, with a neck-through design for eminent tone and playability. The full-contact hardtail bridge enhances definition and sustain. And dual DiMarzio Double Cream humbucking pickups with push/pull coil-splitting yield limitless sonic potential.
Carved Maple Over Ash:
As part of Washburn’s original Wing Series, the Hawk helped define an iconic look that many guitar brands still favor today. The reborn Hawk pushes the symmetrical double-cutaway design forward while keeping the classic tonewood formula of an ash body topped with carved maple.
Tone-Enhancing Hardware:
The Hawk’s full-contact hardtail bridge maximizes vibrational transfer for amazing clarity and epic sustain. Combined with the brass nut, the Hawk has the sonic clarity to translate every nuance of your technique.
DiMarzio Double Cream Pickups:
The reborn Hawk stays true to its roots with a pair of DiMarzio Double Cream humbucking pickups to deliver the sonic aggression that helped forge the sound of heavy metal.
Push-Pull Coil Splitting:
The Hawk features push-pull tone controls to add crystalline single-coil sounds to arsenal of full-bodied humbucking tones. Fine-tune your tone further with individual volume and tone controls for each pickup that give you access to a vast range of tone to explore.
Fast, Fluid Playability with Brass Ring Inlays:
The Hawk’s bound ebony fretboard with jumbo frets sets a fast, responsive foundation for even the most technical players, accented by inlays inspired by the iconic Washburn's Wing Series guitars. |
