An Eastman "Deluxe" Folk: Acoustic Tradition and Fine Finishes
The Eastman E3D-DLX Natural is in the spirit of great traditional folk guitars, with a selection of noble woods and a performance-oriented build. The Natural finish highlights the grain and elegance of the wood while maintaining a sober and timeless aesthetic. Within the range, this E3D-DLX targets guitarists who want the extra depth and detail of an all-solid wood instrument, with a construction designed to last.
Who is it for, and in which styles?
This folk guitar is especially aimed at intermediate to advanced musicians seeking an expressive instrument capable of nuances, reliable both in the studio and rehearsals. Its dynamic response makes it very comfortable in folk, pop, bluegrass, singer-songwriter styles, as well as for vocal accompaniment. It will also suit a demanding beginner wishing to invest in a guitar that can evolve, provided they appreciate a responsive instrument with generous projection.
Sound Characteristics
The solid Sitka spruce top provides clarity, precise attack, and excellent sustain when played loudly: perfect for energetic strumming and pick playing. The solid rosewood back and sides enrich the spectrum with deep lows, bright highs, and naturally long sustain, giving a sense of width and depth, highly appreciated in open chords and arpeggios. The mahogany neck / ebony fingerboard combination promotes a clear response, good note-to-note definition, and a more "direct" playing feel. Finally, the nut and components made of bone contribute to better vibration transmission, resulting in a more articulated sound and a stronger projection.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the best out of this folk guitar, you can choose a steel string set dedicated to folk guitars (gauge according to your comfort), picks suited to your attack style, as well as a humidifier to place inside the hard case if your environment is dry, to preserve the stability of the solid wood.
