Eastman AC322CE - truetone gloss sunburst

Discover the Eastman AC322CE, a Grand Auditorium-style steel-string acoustic guitar that combines style, comfort, and musical performance.

Overview

The EASTMAN AC322CE (Truetone Gloss Sunburst) is a Grand Auditorium-style electric-acoustic steel-string acoustic guitar with a cutaway. It stands out for its all-solid-wood construction, which includes a spruce top, a mahogany back and sides, a maple neck, and an ebony fingerboard. This model also features an LR Baggs Element VTC preamp, with volume and tone controls integrated into the soundhole, as well as a glossy nitrocellulose finish.

Rich, balanced tones for all playing styles

The combination of the Auditorium body with high-quality materials such as spruce, mahogany, and ebony produces a dense, warm tone. You’ll appreciate the following features:

• Generous yet controlled bass


• Prominent and punchy mids


• Full-bodied highs with excellent definition

The ebony fingerboard naturally compresses the sound, delivering exceptional dynamics and clarity, regardless of your playing style.

An innovative preamp system for high-quality amplification

The Baggs Element VTC (Volume Tone Control) system consists of a piezo pickup under the nut and a Class A active preamp housed in the jack. With its two knobs, you’ll have optimal control over volume and tone. With a claimed battery life of approximately 1,000 hours thanks to its 9V LR61 battery, you’ll always be ready to play.

The tones—whether strummed or plucked—are balanced, clear, and dynamic. They naturally reproduce the vibrations of the soundboard and bridge, offering a dynamic response that’s less stiff and artificial than some competing models.

Finally, the guitar comes with an Eastman hardshell case, ensuring it stays protected when you’re on the go.
