Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Excellent
This AC822ce from Eastman is in great shape and ready to be played! The 8 series from Eastman is the top of the line and with an attractive used pricetag this isn't one to sleep on if you want a modern sound in a guitar that would be suitable for just about any playing style. The englemann top is very responsive and reacts well to a pick or fingers and you get a sound that has a great low end and pleasantly forward high end. The guitar just sings from a light touch to a heavy strum you are going to be pleasantly surprised with beautiful overtones and massive sound that explodes out of this guitar. Playability here is also key, the neck is very comfortable and thanks to the cutaway you'll have access to the higher frets without issue. With a pickup from Schertler already installed this guitar is ready to be played in just about any setting!
