    Dude, that guitar sounds amazing. 👌 Only ever seen Atkin in 'cross-the-pond videos, but they are stunning. The kinds of guitars you'd want to take to sing songs around a campfire but be afraid to take for fear of something happening to it. Stray cinder. Raccoon attack. Drunk brother stumbling into you. Trees not providing adequate acoustics...

    Amazing guitar. I have a 2010 J45 and it used to sound like this. I couldn’t play it because the action was too high. So I sanded down the saddle. Now I can play it but it doesn’t have the same tone as it used to 😢

      The Eastman is warmer across the mids and doesn’t have the J45 thump on the bottom or the sparkle on the top…different voicing.
