From the outside, the models in the series – which includes the DT30OM, DT30GACE and the DT30D – look like traditional flat-top steel-string acoustics, but there’s something different going on under the surface.

"Double top" has long been the accepted term for the style of soundboard used for this series. The DT30OM's soundboard is a three-layer construction, but it's certainly not plywood. Instead, we have two very thin layers of Sitka spruce sandwiching a Nomex "Honeycomb" core. The idea is to achieve a far higher strength-to-weight ratio than is possible with a single spruce layer – Eastman claims that its double tops are 30 per cent lighter than conventional tops. This makes these guitars sound like a piano!

The international reviews of this series were all raving and received multiple Guitar of the year awards.

The one piece Honduran mahogany neck alongside the exquisite premium Rosewood back and sides, makes this guitar a true canon, in sound and vision.
