Sound Pure's Take

Full balanced sound that is really clear.  This is a great value.  

The rosette stands out as one of the prettier ones we've seen and the overtones are sweet and resonant.

From Eastman Guitars

The modern profile of the Grand Auditorium represents the best of both worlds for flat-pickers and fingerstylists. The Grand Auditorium is a true hybrid that has many of the attributes of smaller bodies with the volume, punch and bass of a dreadnought without sacrificing anything.
