Here's a comparison between two almost identical Eastman guitars. These both have the quintessential dreadnaught combination of a spruce top with rosewood back and sides, and both are based off an iconic Martin guitar that we all know and love. The only thing is that the second guitar has a torrefied top (a process with which the top of the guitar is essentially baked in an oxygen free oven to simulate the aging process).
