Sound Pure's Take
Setup with Medium strings! Another fine build from Eastman!
Eastman's traditional builds are nothing to take lightly - from the exceptional slabs of woods they use while building the guitars to the dovetail neck joints, scalloped braces and all the other appointments. These 45-style dreads from Eastman will become a staple of their line in due time. The ornate decorations and great craftsmanship on each piece are perfectly exemplified while still retaining all the articulate clarity and rounded boldness Eastmans are known for. The E40D's have all the volume and projection you'd ever need from a guitar. These are spectacular models!
From Eastman Guitars
Eastman handcrafted acoustic guitars cover a wide range of playing styles and sound. The Traditional Series (model names beginning with E) bring back memories of the great instruments of the Golden Era of guitar building. Those were days when all work was done by gifted craftspeople, by hand using simple tools.
All Eastman acoustic guitars share that heritage. Eastman acoustics provide many choices of body styles and fine woods; perfect for many contemporary applications. These are heirloom-quality instruments which may be enjoyed by future generations of musicians.
