The balanced sound produced by the E22 acoustic guitar's emphasis on walnut and spruce tone woods enables studio professionals and singer/songwriters to blend the E22 with other instruments and vocals in real time. Essential components include solid walnut sides and back. In addition to bringing a clean, crystalline presence to highs, walnut's robust middle highlights crucial tones for unwavering intelligibility, which organically improves your sound with openness and width. Additionally, Eastman decided to use Adirondack spruce for the top of the E22. The prewar norm for acoustic guitar tops was Adirondack spruce, which differs from the popular spruce cutting of today in terms of resonance and appearance. Finally, Adirondack and walnut are forced into a sonorous, well-balanced marriage by the scalloped spruce X-bracing within, making it suitable for any musical genre.
