Eastman Traditional
For the instruments in the Traditional series, Eastman drew inspiration from well-known and proven models of renowned brands and manufacturers. These guitars are not copies, however; each has its own individual sound and a timeless, classic look.
The range within the series knows almost no limits. The Traditional series offers many different body shapes, from Dreadnoughts to OM and 00 models and even parlour guitars. The top (soundboard) wood is usually Sitka or Adirondack spruce, and the choice of body woods ranges from Sapele and Ovangkol on the more affordable models to exotic tropical woods such as Madagascar rosewood or mahogany. Each instrument in the Traditional series is constructed entirely from solid wood.
In instruments bearing the designation TC, the Thermo-Cure process has also been applied. In this process the guitar’s top is heat-treated, further enhancing the sound of these already high-quality instruments. Thanks to the Thermo-Cure treatment, the guitar’s tone already sounds at purchase as if it had been played for years. Another eye-catcher is Eastman’s Classic-Finish, which is also used on guitars from other series.
Depending on the price range, guitars in the Traditional series are delivered with a soft case or a vintage case. The cases in particular perfectly complement the traditional look of the instruments.
