The Eastman AC122-2CE has become my "go to" recommendation for anyone looking for the most INCREDIBLE all-rounder instrument - but there is NOTHING all-rounder about the tone from this incredible guitar.
The Eastman guitars put many brands to total shame - the difference between what this guitar achieves and even guitars by other brands at twice the price is remarkable.
The auditorium body shape is very comfortable - so if you want a nice easy guitar to hold it ticks the box.
If you want a sweet sounding instrument you have come to the right place with a cedar top (which gives you a warmer tone than spruce - if you want the more biting tone then check out its sister the AC122-1CE) and sapele back and sides. All solid woods! The all solid wood nature of the guitar ensures the very best tone and resonance.
OK - so we know its super comfortable and it sounds amazing!
The guitar has a beautifully discrete pickup system with a tone and volume sound wheel under the lip of the sound hole. A perfect solution for those open mic nights!
The guitar comes with a beautiful gig bag which is nicely padded offering excellent protection.
Of ALL acoustic guitars we sell at Richards Guitars - this guitar will always be on my personal list of recommendations. If you want a little more bite - maybe a little more crisp edge - then the spruce version (AC122-1CE) is equally wonderful.
