The E2OM acoustic guitar by Eastman Guitars has everything that an advancing player or even a professional could desire. Solid cedar and sapele tonewoods give this guitar a thoroughbred sound that teems with richness and musicality. The versatile “C” profile of the E2OM’s mahogany neck helps players readily explore a glassy ebony fingerboard. What’s more, elegant appointments and the natural beauty of hardwood emphasize good looks to a degree that’s virtually unheard of in this price range. Beyond a solid top and solid back and sides, the E2OM acoustic guitar is fitted with a bridge, bridge pins, and saddle, all carved from ebony. The body is framed with tortoiseshell binding and a deluxe soundhole rosette that complements a Truetone finish, the E2OM’s final touch that adds a thin, durable seal while letting tonewoods vibrate and breathe at full force.





Upgraded with cedar and sapele





With the E2OM acoustic guitar, you’re only a strum away from warm, organic tone. Sapele back and sides bring familiar vigor with a full-bodied sound, along with lasting sustain that rewards emotive playing and thoughtful movements. The sound of sapele is frequently compared to mahogany, and for good reason! But it’s safe to say that many Sweetwater guitarists have come to prefer sapele because it performs outstandingly at a great price. The richness of sapele is heightened with a solid cedar top for high-quality projection and powerful tone. Cedar is also prized for its moody warmth, which manifests as distinct tonal variations, all depending on where you play on the neck. Lastly, these upscale tonewoods are optimized with scalloped spruce X-bracing for a sound that’s carefully balanced across each string.





Abundant handiwork, professional appeal





The E2OM's detailed appointments are crafted using high-quality materials such as hardwood ebony. The bridge pins, bridge, and saddle are all made from ebony. Once paired with the E2OM's bone nut and saddle, ebony hardware facilitates mature, unrestricted resonance that plastic components simply cannot match. Moreover, the headstock features ebony detailing and a pearl logo. The final touch is a Truetone finish by Eastman, which seals your guitar’s beauty under a thin, durable, and protective layer without dampening resonance. It’s safe to say we’re impressed ? now, it’s your turn!
