Eastman's new Special line gives the E1 entry-level series a serious upgrade. As we have come to expect from the E1D, this Special is also fully solid, but now in this Special version with truly beautiful quilted back and sides and high-gloss Truetone Gloss finish. The Thermo-Cured top (unique in this price range) adds warmth and clear projection. A beautiful Herringbone rosette and a North Star inlay on the 12th fret complete the picture!
In addition to the (still available) standard E1 series, the Special Series is a serious step up at a modest price.
