Washburn Sonamaster Stage Pack is a complete electric guitar starter pack built around the Washburn Sonamaster, a double cutaway electric with a poplar body, maple neck, 25.5 inch scale and an S-S-H pickup layout with a 5-way switch. It comes with a 10-watt amplifier, cable, clip-on tuner, strap, pick, guitar stand, gig bag and extra strings, for first time players who want to plug in and play the day it arrives. Available in Tobacco Sunburst and Black.
Everything a new electric player needs, in one box.
Washburn built this pack so nothing is missing on day one. Plug the Sonamaster into the included 10-watt amp with the cable in the box, tune up with the clip-on tuner, put on the strap, grab the pick and start playing. The stand gives the guitar a safe place to live between practice sessions, the gig bag carries it to lessons, and the extra strings cover the first broken string.
The guitar itself is a full size, full scale electric, not a short scale toy. Two single coils and a bridge humbucker run through one volume, one tone and a 5-way blade switch, so it covers clean chords, blues and rock from the same instrument. The maple neck has 22 frets on a 12 inch radius Techwood fretboard with pearloid dot inlays, finished in gloss.

Why Washburn
Washburn has made fretted instruments since 1883, when the brand started in Chicago, which makes it one of the oldest names in American guitar making. Today the range runs from acoustic and electric guitars to basses, banjos and mandolins, and its packs are built to get new players started on a real instrument.
