In 2026, The Fellowship of Acoustics celebrates its 25th anniversary. To mark this occasion, we asked Eastman to create this special anniversary edition of their successful parlor model. We may be a bit biased, but it truly turned out to be a beautiful instrument!

 

This model stands out through its use of Indian rosewood for the body, paired with a strikingly light Sitka spruce top, finished with herringbone purfling and rosette. The most distinctive detail can be found on the fingerboard, where an inlay is inspired by an ornament featured on our historic villa.

 

With its refined Truetone satin finish, this parlor guitar immediately draws the eye. The combination of a solid Sitka spruce top with solid Indian rosewood back and sides delivers a rich, warm tonal palette with impressive projection, especially considering its compact size. The scalloped X-bracing allows the top to vibrate more freely, enhancing both resonance and dynamic range while maintaining structural stability.

 

The mahogany neck with a Traditional Even C profile offers a comfortable playing feel, perfectly complemented by the ebony fingerboard. The shorter 24.9" scale length makes playing effortless, with reduced string tension that lends itself well to expressive fingerstyle work. From delicate fingerpicking to rhythmic chord playing, this guitar responds with clarity and definition!

 

The guitar comes with a TFOA passport in an Eastman gigbag.
