Eastman AC622CE-koa-ltd

An LTD Edition Designed for the High-End Market: Solid Koa and Exceptional Finishes

With its AC622CE-KOA-LTD configuration, this model stands out with a decidedly high-end approach: solid koa throughout the body, luxurious appointments (abalone rosette, "maple leaf" abalone inlays, pearl logo), and meticulous craftsmanship down to the details. The 16-inch format provides breadth, while the cutaway facilitates access to the upper registers, making it an instrument suited both for modern playing and refined accompaniment.

Who Is It For and What Styles?

This guitar is aimed at intermediate to expert guitarists seeking a premium acoustic that is expressive and reliable on stage. Its 25.4-inch scale length promotes note definition and sustain, and the Even "C" neck profile remains familiar and comfortable. It excels in fingerstyle, pop, folk, vocal accompaniment, and also suits more driving rhythms thanks to its projection and dynamic range.

Sound Characteristics

The choice of a solid koa set (top, back, and sides) delivers a tonal signature that is both warm and precise, with rich mids, silky highs, and excellent articulation. The hand-scalloped X bracing enhances top responsiveness and the sensation of "breathing" under the fingers: resulting in wide projection, good sustain, and very gradual dynamics, ideal for nuanced touch. The ebony fingerboard and bridge contribute to attack clarity, while the LR Baggs Element EAS VTC system provides balanced and natural amplification, convenient for transitioning from soft playing to more aggressive attacks without losing the acoustic character.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

The guitar comes with a Hardshell Case for secure transport. It is factory-strung with D'Addario XT Phosphor Bronze 12-53: if you wish to maintain the factory feel and balance, stick to this 12-53 gauge phosphor bronze set when replacing strings.
