affordable fingerstyle guitar |

My daughter gave me an early Christmas present, its a long story, so I have some cash to finally get a real fingerstyle guitar. I am talking to a guy about an
Eastman AC308 for $700. 1 3/4 nut with 24.9" scale neck. I dont know what the string spacing at the bridge is but someone said theirs is 2 1/8. For me
that would be a dealbreaker. I have seen the brand in the past and they are pretty but the sound has been less than spectacular. I talked to a guy that has
watched their development and he said that they have continued to improve so now they are comparable to any quality guitar. I dont know but for $700, or did
the dealer say $750, to get a fingerstyler, wow. Anyone have thoughts on these?

I've demo'd one of their acoustic 12-strings a while back. It was a pretty nice guitar for the money I thought. But it's always best to try any
acoustic first if you can...or at least buy from someone with a 30 day return policy...just in case.

If you are spending that much i would take a look at the Seagull line of guitars. They make a bunch of different models, and one with all solid wood that i
think goes for around your price. I think they would probably be a better choice than the Eastman.
