Eastman E20D-SB Dreadnought Steel String Guitar Sunburst, 2005

 Eastman E20D-SB Dreadnought Steel String Guitar Sunburst, 2005

The Eastman E20D is the less decorated cousin to the Eastman E40D we posted recently, but even without the decorations it’s an impressive and classy guitar.
This example was built at the Eastman plant in China during 2005 and has been both played in and well looked after. It’s set up for bluegrass use, meaning that the action is a little higher for spirited playing, competing with other percussively loud instruments like banjos and mandolins.

Webber Jumbo Soft Cutaway Steel String Guitar, 2007 REDUCED

 Webber Jumbo Soft Cutaway Steel String Guitar, 2007 REDUCED

The Webber Jumbo body is an elegant guitar, combining the upper bout shape of an OM Style guitar with a large, circular lower bout. This tight-waisted guitar is smaller at 16 inches across than most conventional jumbo designs. As it is also slightly shallower, the body fits comfortably under the player’s arm. It delivers a big, well defined bass response with a strong mid range, making this guitar a great choice for Jazz comping or rhythm accompaniment.
Dating to 2007, this Webber Jumbo includes the Soft Cutaway option, which is a bit shorter or ‘softer’ than most traditional Venetian cutaways. In very good condition with very little wear, it is built with a Sitka Spruce top and Indian Rosewood for the back and sides.
