The Joe Trohman Washburn Idol is a modern electric single cutaway style guitar. Tones ranging from punishing to pristine spring from dual humbuckers and the innovative Voice Contour Control. VCC is a unique coil splitting system that allows players to incrementally blend humbucking and single-coil pickup sounds without the hum normally associated with single-coils. The solid basswood body has a wide-yet-thin profile that is lightweight but balances well. The set maple neck has a fast profile, comfortable neck joint, rosewood fretboard, and 22 medium-jumbo frets and Grover tuners to keep you in tune.

"I spent a long time putting this guitar together, making it something that really represented me as a guitar player. This is the result and I'm so pleased with it. The fact that Washburn presented this opportunity in the first place means the world to me, and now I got to work with great people to create something I truly love. I'm a guitar player, and I'm obsessed with every inch, every nook, every aspect of guitars in general. I put my stamp whole heartily on this guitar, knowing that it fully kicks ass and surpasses my standards. I'm excited to make it available to everyone out there. Enjoy it, it will bring you riffs galore."
