Washburn entered the electric guitar market in the late 1970s, and the Wing Series represented its first major line of electric guitars.

The Wing Series didn’t just give Washburn its first electric models — it helped establish Washburn in electric guitar culture at a time when many players were looking for quality instruments beyond the big three (Fender, Gibson, Ibanez).
