Eastman AC708CE Grand Concert Acoustic Electric Guitar with Original Case
Up for sale we have a beautiful Eastman AC708CE Grand Concert. Eastman is one of those companies that continues to impress with their craftsmanship, choice of high quality materials, and attention to detail/aesthetic. The AC708CE features a shape inspired by the contours of the great classical guitars of Spain. This Grand Concert’s addition of steel strings to this iconic design creates a powerful sound. Most commonly associated with finger-stylists, the Grand Concert is also flat-pick friendly due to it's body depth.
This guitar was originally bought as b-stock for a small imperfection in the cutaway under the finish, which is pictured. Overall, this guitar is in excellent condition with a healthy crown on the frets, no dings or cracks, and playing just as Eastman would want it to. A little pick swirling can be seen as well as some hairline marks in finish near the back bottom of the body. The playability of this instrument is great - nice, medium to low action, though not too low for light/medium strumming. And, there is plenty of saddle remaining for any potential need for adjustments in the future. The neck is a comfortable C and the 12-54 gauge strings get a ton of energy and sound from the soundboard. This guitar punches WAY above other guitars in this price range!
