Eastman PCH2-GACE: RW Lam B/S GA solid top/satin

The Eastman PCH2-GACE handles fingerstyle with clarity, strumming with confidence, and sits comfortably whether you’re on a couch or under stage lights.

Up top, you’ve got thermo-cured Sitka spruce. Same story as the seasoned crowd—it’s been treated to sound older than it is. Dry, open, responsive. You don’t have to “play it in.” It’s already halfway through its memoir.

Turn it around and there’s laminated rosewood back and sides.

Now rosewood—even laminated—does a thing. It adds depth, shimmer, and that slightly scooped character that makes chords feel wider, more cinematic. It’s not overly complex, but it’s undeniably rich. The kind of tone that makes you linger on a chord just a second longer than necessary.

Finish-wise: gloss on the top, satin everywhere else. So it looks right under lights but still feels like a tool in your hands—not something you’re afraid to touch.

And yes—it plugs in. Clean, simple onboard electronics that get the job done without turning your signal into a science experiment. Volume, tone, go play.
