Description
The Eastman E2D Deluxe Cedar Sapele Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric - Sunburst is a strong fit for players who want the projection of a full-size dreadnought with a slightly warmer, more immediate response than you typically get from a spruce-topped guitar. Its solid cedar top and solid sapele back and sides give it a balanced foundation that works especially well for singer-songwriters, fingerstyle players, and strummers who want plenty of body without an overly sharp top end. The Sunburst TruTone gloss finish, tortoise binding, and classic appointments keep the look traditional and understated.
Eastman pairs the solid-wood body with hand-carved scalloped X-bracing, an ebony bridge, and a bone saddle. The mahogany neck uses Eastman's Traditional Even "C" profile, with a 12" radius ebony fingerboard, 1-3/4" bone nut, 25.4" scale, and 20 Jescar frets. That combination gives you comfortable spacing for fingerstyle work while still feeling familiar when you're playing open chords or digging into rhythm parts. A Fishman Presys VT system handles amplification with a straightforward setup that makes this an easy acoustic to move from home or studio use directly onto a stage.
Open-gear PingWell tuners, an ebony bridge and bridge pins, and bone nut and saddle round out a practical hardware package built around consistency and easy maintenance. We like the E2D Deluxe for someone who wants an all-solid dreadnought with a warm cedar voice but still needs the versatility of onboard electronics. Eastman's Deluxe Padded Gig Bag is included for storage and transport.
