I own a Washburn D10 and I love it. Pretty much has turned out to be my favorite acoustic. It doesn't have a big bass response but none of my guitars do and I frankly don't want one. That's what I own several bass guitars for.

Some of the Washburns I tried I did not like. The strings seemed muted but that might be the strings themselves but I didn't want to take a chance. The D10 has a bright, ringy tone and I like it. It is easier to hear, for example, than my Dean.

My Takamine is about the best for the evenness of the sound and every note being bright and clear and the intonation perfect. Unfortunately, it isn't really made for my long, spidery fingers.

So, the Washburns seem to me to be hit and miss--sometimes they sound great but other times not. I, however, am very happy with the D10 I bought.
