The New 2026 NAMM Model Eastman PCH3-GACE-AB Sitka/Laminated Maple Grand Auditorium Cutaway Guitar is built for players who want modern versatility with unmistakable Eastman style. Featuring a solid Sitka spruce top paired with laminated maple back and sides, this grand auditorium body delivers a balanced, responsive voice in a lightweight, stage-ready design. The Amberburst gloss finish sets it apart visually, giving this guitar a bold, contemporary look while maintaining the clean lines and refined details Eastman is known for.

This model is designed to perform in a wide range of musical settings. X-bracing allows the Sitka top to project clearly with strong fundamentals and a smooth high end, while the maple body keeps the tone focused and articulate. The grand auditorium shape offers excellent balance between low-end warmth and midrange clarity, making it equally comfortable for fingerstyle, light strumming, and rhythm work. With its cutaway design and Eastman by Fishman electronics, this guitar transitions seamlessly from living room to stage, delivering a natural amplified sound that stays true to its acoustic character.

Playability is where this PCH3-GACE-AB truly shines. A maple neck with a traditional even C profile, 12 inch radius ovangkol fingerboard, 25.4 inch scale length, and 1 3/4 inch bone nut provide a familiar, comfortable feel across the entire fingerboard. Quality appointments like an abalone rosette, pearl dot inlays, rosewood bridge, and precise factory setup ensure a smooth, confident playing experience. Finished in Truetone Amberburst gloss and protected in a padded Eastman gig bag, this 2026 NAMM Model offers modern performance, eye-catching style, and dependable Eastman craftsmanship at an accessible level.
