Eastman acoustic guitar with solid build and pickup
If you want an acoustic guitar that combines a classic appearance with modern usability, the Eastman AC222CE-CLA is a strong choice. Its all-solid construction with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid ovangkol back and sides gives this Eastman a full, powerful tone, clear projection and warm mids.
That makes this acoustic guitar a great option for singer-songwriters and players who want one instrument for different styles. The built-in Fishman Sonitone pickup makes the Eastman AC222CE-CLA ready for live performance and recording right away.
Construction, feel and finish of the Eastman AC222CE-CLA
The mahogany neck with Traditional Even "C" profile feels familiar in the hand, while the ebony fingerboard with 12 inch radius adds a refined playing feel. With a 1 3/4 inch bone nut, 25.4 inch scale length and 20 Jescar-FW43080 frets, the dimensions are clearly aimed at a serious acoustic guitar for versatile use.
Hand-carved X-bracing adds extra dynamics and resonance. Its classic character also shows in the tortoise binding on top and back, tortoise shell pickguard, classic rosette, pearl details on headstock and fingerboard, nickel hardware and Truetone Satin finish. At Magna Music, you can also try this model in the shop and compare it with advice from staff who are players themselves.
