Hi There!
I am new to the forum!
I play Jazz Guitar on a semi-hollow guitar so have no experience in what wood would be best for Jazz acoustic?
Looking at the AC522CE and up models as I like the arm bevel and soundport.
I was at a jazz session the other week and fellow jazzers brought along their Taylor acoustics and one Martin D18 and I loved the sound of them! Someone so pure all hearing an acoustic playing a jazz standard with no amps!
A friend of mine has 3 Eastmans! The gypsy jazz model, the John Pisano model and a Romeo and recommend that I have a look at the Eastman acoustics.
My first acoustic guitar (sold many moons ago) that I had many years ago before Jazz was a sitka spruce and mahogany back and side so my first thoughts were the AC522CE, however I wanted to hear if anyone had an experience with the other AC models with Maple and or the Rosewood back and sides. I have done a lot of research and watched countless videos and still can't decide. I would buy online and don't have the opportunity to try in store.
I am looking for a guitar that is articulate, warm and some volume to play melodies and complex jazz chords.
Any advice?
