Eastman E10OOSS Thermo-Cure - truetone gloss sunburst

The EASTMAN E10OOSS Thermo-Cure is a remarkable steel-string acoustic guitar with a compact size (OO, short scale 24.75") and immaculate all-solid-wood construction: Adirondack spruce top, mahogany body, mahogany neck, Ebony fingerboard. The quality of the woods and the workmanship make this guitar worthy of excellent vintages.

Abundant in the 1930s, when it was used extensively for the soundboards of Martin guitars,"Red Spruce" or "Adirondack" spruce (Picea Rubens) enjoys enormous popularity. More dense than common spruce, Adirondack spruce is exceptionally responsive. The soundboard has benefited from the "Thermo-Cure" treatment. The essences have been subjected to accelerated drying through exposure to high temperatures. The result is greater stability and better resonance.
