Washburn Mighty Idol Series WMIDLXLITEFHB Electric Guitar Review

Update: I now own this guitar. With a little adjustment, the action is now amazingly low. I have found this to be one of the most comfortable guitars I have ever played. Ergonomically, everything feels "just right". After years of playing Strat-type guitars, I am convinced that LP-influenced designs work better for me. I do miss that glassy, crisp, snap of the strat's tone, due in part to the longer scale neck and pick up locations. One planned upgrade: Seymour Duncan TS-2s Triple Shot Carved Top Pickup Mounting Ring Set Cream to take full advantage of the capabilities of the Seymour Duncan SHPR-1s P-Rails - Neck and Bridge Pickup Set Cream that a previous owner had installed.

Original review:

Disclosure: I have never seen the factory stock version of this. I set up a used Mighty Idol LITE for a friend. The one I played had Seymour Duncan P-Rails pickups in it, but the guitar itself was pretty cool, as a matter of fact, I loved it. It was one of those guitars that can be set up so that it almost plays itself. I am used to Fender 25.5 inch scale necks, and the Gibson-ish 24.75 scale seems a little smoother and more refined to me.
I set up an Agile AL 2000 Agile AL-2000 Rootbeer Flame Electric Guitar at the same time for the same friend. In comparison, the Agile was the better guitar, much more Les Paul-like with tons of sustain, even unplugged. The Washburn held its own, though, in its own way. It had a nice chimey resonance unplugged, which made the single-coil sound just come alive, (the Idol comes with a single coil-to-humbucker switch stock, a nice touch!) The idol was also lighter, with a "belly cut" on the back that made it a bit more comfy that your average LP-style axe.
All in all, it is a good guitar for the price- about three bills for the Washburn, vs. two and a quarter for the Agile, both in stock form. With shipping costs for the Agile figured in vs free shipping through Amazon for the Washburn it is just about even price wise with a slight edge to the Agile.
The Agile feels much more expensive than it is, while the Wasburn feels great for a cheap guitar.
Flexibility-wise, the edge goes to the Washburn, with its stock coil tap switch, giving the option of a Gibson or Strat/Jaguar tone at the flick of a switch.
I had more fun with the Washburn, and had trouble making myself give it back to my buddy.
Recomended!
