2012 Eastman AC 522 Grand Auditorium
The Eastman company has come quite a long way from it's beginnings in 1992, when they first starting building violins. After establishing themselves as master violin makers, they soon branched out by producing mandolins, arch-top guitars and finally flat top and electric guitars. From the playability, fit, finish, to the remarkable tone, the quality of their acoustic guitars is superb. Even more surprising, the prices are very affordable.
I found this particular model quite a joy to play.
