Washburn Parallaxe PXM20EFTBM review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

The Washburn Parallaxe PXM20EFTBM is a solid choice for metal enthusiasts, thanks to its through-body stringing and EMG pickups which cater to a variety of metal styles. Praised for its good build quality and excellent neck, it offers value for money. However, its tones are not particularly distinctive and may not stand out in a crowded market. Overall, this model would be a great fit for modern hard rock players looking for a reliable instrument without the need for modifications.
