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.
Like the E40D, the Eastman E20D is built with an Adirondack Spruce top and Indian Rosewood for the back,sides, and headplate. The neck is mahogany and the bridge and unbound fingerboard are ebony. The open-gear tunwerees are reminiscent of the ‘butterbean’ Grover tuners, but are by Ping.
This guitar is in great shape with just minor wear, and makes a good Bluegrass instrument. The original hard shell case is included.
