Sound Pure's Take
Eastman nails it again! Where else can you get a guitar with hand scalloped braces for under $500?! Sapele is a pseudo-relative of Mahogany that shares a similar balance and sweetness in the highs but with a bit of a brighter sparkle overall. Whether you're just getting or started or just need a guitar that can go from your favorite couch to your favorite music festival with ease, this handsome dreadnought won't let you down!
From Eastman Guitars
Iconic, big, and bold. You’ll never have to worry about competing for sonic space with this classic, flat-picking bluegrass instrument. Perfect for ensemble settings where cutting through the mix can be an issue.
