Sound Pure's Take
Deeply rooted in the D-18 idiom (the specs speak for themselves!), this piece of acoustic artillery is ready to roar! You've never had as much sheer fun strumming a guitar. The strum-happy Sitka is also a bit more responsive to the fingers than it's rigid Adirondack relative. You'll find that the E8D is just as much at home on a quiet night flopped on the couch as it is in full-froth on a 5-man bandstand. And who would have guessed such carefully researched, hand-crafted work comes with such a friendly price tag? Just an unbelievable model from one of our favorite makers!
From Eastman Guitars
The iconic shape of the Dreadnought is synonymous with acoustic guitars in general. Big and bold, these cannons are perfect for ensemble settings where the guitar competes for sonic space with other instruments or accompanying strong singers. The Dreadnought is the classic flat-picking bluegrass instrument.
