Eastman

Eastman was founded in 1992 by Qian Ni, a Chinese musician who had moved to America. He realised there were few professional instruments available at the time, which is why he decided to start his own company. Quality is still Eastman’s priority. Every instrument is made by hand and goes through an extensive process to ensure that the instruments will stand the test of time and can be used quite intensively.

The AC522CE

The AC522CE is a high-quality Auditorium guitar. Auditorium guitars are very versatile; they’re a little smaller than the popular Dreadnought and a little bigger than the Grand Concert. Although Dreadnoughts are ideal rhythm guitars whilst Grand Concerts are better for fingerpicking, the Auditorium is ideal for both. This is because the body is deep enough to produce beautiful deep tones, but it can still define and balance the individual notes. Consequently, Auditoriums are very versatile and popular. The AC522CE moreover has a cut-out, which makes reaching higher frets a lot easier. The top of the body is made of solid spruce. Spruce is an amazing tonewood for acoustic guitars as it produces a bright and warm sound with great sustain. The guitar has solid mahogany back and sides, which produces a warm and powerful sound. The guitar has a mahogany neck and an ebony fretboard. These are high-quality tonewoods that look beautiful and feel very comfortable. A hardshell case is included with the guitar.
