OM with Thermo-Cured Sitka Spruce Top
We are continually impressed with Eastman’s craftsmanship and consistency, which represents the very definition of what we seek in the instruments we stock: best performance value. Considering how splendidly crafted they are and the high quality of the materials used, the superior performance characteristics of these instruments is easy to appreciate. Indeed, one is tempted to say that they are without peer in their price class.
Special features of the Traditional Series guitars, which are inspired by classic acoustic guitar designs, include: all solid wood construction with hand-carved scalloped braces, forward shifted X-brace, dovetail neck joint, and hand polished nitrocellulose finish. The E6 OM-TC is Eastman’s fine take on a vintage 000-18. The star of the show is the “Thermo-cured” or torrified Sitka Spruce top, which simulates the process of decades of aging, that yields a sweeter, drier voice. This top combined with the mahogany back and sides, yields a clear and punchy response, with slightly more prominent midrange. Though quite versatile in general, the E6 OM-TC is a fantastic finger-picking or lead guitar.
