The Twelfth Fret

Eastman E10-SS

On February 24, 2012 /

Part of the Traditional Series of guitars from Eastman the E10-SS slope shouldered dreadnought is an excellent tribute to the iconic guitars from the 30’s and 40’s! Inspired by great flat top guitars from the Golden Era of guitar making such as the Gibson J-45, it features an Adirondack spruce top which provides plenty of punch and crisp note fundamentals to complement the warm and sweet midrange of the mahogany back and sides. Top it off with a lovely looking vintage style tobacco burst and you have a guitar that sports a classic look and sound!!

This is one of the most impressive sounding classical guitars to come through our shop in a long time. This instrument has a perfect balance of crisp attack transient, meaty note fundamental and complex but not overpowering overtone series. It is not unusual to get a pleasing bass register on a nylon string, but to find trebles like this is very rare!! This is an exceptional sounding, truly concert grade instrument made by one of the best luthiers of our generation.

This is an amazing instrument. The wood selection and build quality is outstanding, creating a visually stunning effect, and the tone – well, it’s got everything, and all at once. Given the way this guitar sounds now, once it’s been played in and opens up, it will be truly exceptional.

Eastman makes some of the best-value jazz boxes around, and the Eastman AR 503 is a prime example. It plays and sounds great, and wouldn’t look out of place anywhere.
