Eastman acoustic guitar with solid Sitka and ovangkol
If you want an acoustic guitar that combines a classic look with a modern voice, the Eastman AC222CE-LCE is a compelling option. Its all-solid construction pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid ovangkol back and sides, which the product information describes as delivering a full, powerful tone with clear projection and warm mids. That makes this steel-string guitar appealing for singer-songwriters and players working across different styles.
The hand-carved X-bracing adds dynamic response and resonance. Combined with the 16" x 4 1/4" body dimensions and 25.4" scale length, this acoustic guitar is built around a mature, serious playing experience.
Playing feel and finish of the Eastman AC222CE-LCE
The mahogany neck uses a Traditional Even "C" profile and feels comfortable in the hand alongside the 12" fingerboard radius. The ebony fingerboard, 1 3/4" bone nut, and ebony bridge with bone saddle and 2 5/32" string spacing match the refined, premium character of this model. With 20 Jescar-FW43080 frets and a dual acting truss rod, you get the kind of specifications players expect in this class.
Visually, Eastman keeps it elegant with a classic rosette, tortoise binding on the top and back, a tortoise shell pickguard, and pearl details on the headstock and fingerboard. The Truetone Satin finish on the top, back, and sides gives the guitar a restrained Natural look with Traditional color choice.
Acoustic guitar with Fishman Sonitone pickup
The built-in Fishman Sonitone pickup also makes this acoustic guitar a practical electro-acoustic guitar for live performance and recording. You can play it unplugged or connect it directly when working on stage or in the studio.
Eastman includes D’Addario XS Coated Phosphor Bronze Light strings in .012 - .053, a deluxe Eastman gigbag, and a 4mm truss rod wrench with the AC222CE-LCE. At Magna Music, you can try this model in-store, and if a setup is needed later, there is also an in-house workshop for maintenance.
