2015 Eastman E6D Dreadnought Guitar

Overview: Eastman guitars are super-popular when we have them around the shop. The value to price is undeniable. This one looks like (well, and also sounds like) a '30s-style D-18 from the front but from the back it's got hoo-boy flamed mahogany all over the place that's highlighted with a bit of a burst finish.

Interesting features: I noted the stand-out bit -- the stellar mahogany -- but it's also got interesting appointments. It's got '60s-style tortoise binding with a matching tortoise pickguard, a diamond "volute" at the back of the headstock, and a neck that's faster and more modern than the '30s-style guitar it looks like.

Repairs included: Jose gave this a fret level/dress and setup and it's playing spot-on and ready to go.

Condition notes: It's lightly-used with only a bit of light usewear here and there (very light scratching/handling). Jose did a level/dress of the frets but they were only mildly-pitted and so there's plenty of fret height left for further jobs. There is a small ding on the back of the neck, which I've pictured.

It comes with: It has its original hard case.
