Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Good
The solid, handcarved construction and lack of a center block on the T146 lend it a tonality and playability like no other. You've got surprising (and you will be surprised by it!) acoustic response when unamplified that lends your amplified sound a wonderful resonance in combination with great natural compression thanks to the shallow body depth. Lightning fast response and high sensitivity mean you'll be able to hit licks you never thought you could while inflecting nuance with ease, from chord work to lead playing. A serious crossover guitar, too--this might be the perfect medium between electric and acoustics! Call us up to learn more about what makes this wonderful model from Eastman a shop favorite!
