THERMO-CURED ADIRONDACK SPRUCE TOP

Adirondack wood, also known as red spruce, is a popular choice for acoustic guitar tops due to its excellent tonal properties. This type of wood is known for its stiffness and strength, which allows it to resonate well and produce a bright and powerful sound. Adirondack wood also has a high stiffness-to-weight ratio, making it an ideal material for creating a thin, lightweight guitar top that can vibrate freely and produce rich overtones. In addition, this wood is highly prized for its tight, even grain pattern, which contributes to its beautiful appearance and enhances its tonal quality.

One of Eastman's unique techniques is the thermo-curing process, which involves baking the wood at a high temperature in a low-oxygen environment. This process helps to stabilize the wood and remove any moisture, which can cause the wood to warp or deform over time. The result is a guitar with increased durability and stability, as well as improved tonal properties. The thermo-curing process also enhances the wood's natural color and grain patterns, resulting in a more visually appealing instrument.

SOLID MADAGASCAN ROSEWOOD BACK AND SIDES

Madagascan rosewood is prized for its beautiful appearance and rich, full-bodied tone. This wood has a reddish-brown color with dark streaks and a striking grain pattern that adds visual interest to the guitar. When used in guitar construction, Madagascan rosewood contributes to a warm, balanced tone with a strong midrange and clear high-end. It also offers excellent projection and sustain, making it a popular choice for fingerstyle and flatpicking guitarists alike. In addition to its tonal properties, Madagascan rosewood is a durable and long-lasting wood that can stand up to the rigors of heavy playing and travel. Overall, this species is a versatile and highly sought-after wood that adds both aesthetic beauty and tonal excellence to any acoustic guitar.

MAHOGANY NECK WITH EBONY FRETBOARD

Ebony fingerboards are a popular choice for acoustic guitars due to their dense, smooth surface and ability to enhance clarity and sustain in the instrument's sound. This complements the mahogany neck very well thus providing a very balanced, projecting tone.

The Abalone snowflake inlays are impressive and are very pleasing to the eye, which look great on the dark ebony fingerboard.
