Audio-Technica has announced the ATH-WP900SE, a striking limited-edition headphone that blends artisanal craftsmanship with advanced audio engineering. Inspired by the world of classic guitars, this special model features a beautiful three-color sunburst lacquer finish and solid ash wood housings, created in partnership with renowned Japanese guitar manufacturer Fujigen.
Guitar-Inspired Aesthetics and Premium Craftsmanship
Every ATH-WP900SE is meticulously handcrafted to the highest standards. The eye-catching sunburst lacquer pays homage to iconic guitar designs, while the solid ash wood earcups showcase natural grain patterns that also contribute excellent acoustic properties. This collaboration with Fujigen ensures exceptional attention to detail in both visual beauty and material selection.
Each unit comes as a true collector’s item, complete with a specially designed Fujigen cleaning cloth for lacquered finishes and a card bearing a handwritten serial number.
Advanced 53mm Drivers for Detailed, High-Resolution Audio
At the heart of the ATH-WP900SE is a newly developed 53mm driver paired with an advanced voice coil. This combination improves linearity and delivers high-resolution sound across the full frequency range. The headphones are specifically tuned to highlight the character of string instruments, offering a listening experience rich in clarity, warmth, and precision — ideal for acoustic performances and nuanced recordings.
Practical Luxury with Excellent Connectivity
Despite its premium build, the ATH-WP900SE remains lightweight and comfortable for extended listening sessions, making it suitable for both home and on-the-go use. Signal integrity is maintained through Audio-Technica’s A2DC detachable connectors, which ensure stable, low-noise transmission.
The package includes two detachable cables for maximum flexibility:
- 4.4mm balanced cable
- 3.5mm standard cable

With decades of experience designing wooden headphones dating back to 1996, Audio-Technica continues to explore how natural materials influence sound.
