Eastman Guitar Build Overview
The Eastman AC722CE Grand Auditorium Cutaway #M2509954 is a premium acoustic-electric guitar built for players who value warmth, depth, and tonal complexity. Featuring a solid European spruce top paired with solid rosewood back and sides, this guitar delivers a rich, full-bodied voice with strong low-end presence, clear trebles, and lush harmonic overtones.
The Grand Auditorium body with cutaway provides exceptional versatility across playing styles, while the addition of a sound port and arm contour enhances comfort and player awareness. Whether fingerpicking or strumming, the AC722CE responds with balance, projection, and dynamic sensitivity.
Visually, this model features rosewood binding with turquoise and magenta purfling, an abalone rosette, and hurricane pearl/abalone inlays—delivering a refined, boutique aesthetic. Paired with the LR Baggs Element EAS VTC pickup system, the AC722CE produces natural, dynamic amplified tone with excellent clarity and control.
Why the AC722CE Stands Out
The combination of European spruce and rosewood creates a tonal profile that emphasizes warmth, sustain, and harmonic richness—ideal for players seeking a full, expressive acoustic voice.
