Summary: The quality of Eastman guitars and the tone they emit continues to amaze us here at Empire guitars. The ebony fretboard feels fantastic and has a really natural glossed look, while the pristine nitrocellulose lacquer finish on an all solid-wood semi-hollow body resonates acoustically with brilliant articulation. All the acoustic qualities blend seamlessly with the humbucking pickups when amplified for a rich sustaining tone that is really alive and inspiring. Eastman continues to be one of our favorites at the shop and this guitar is just simply exceptional! It ships in its original Eastman hard shell case.

Body: The 14” semi-hollow body is bound in 6-ply flamed maple (ebony/maple/ebony). The f-holes are even bound in 3-ply maple/ebony/maple and it looks absolutely beautiful. The top is solid flamed maple and the back and sides are solid mahogany….all finished in a natural brown sunburst nitrocellulose lacquer.

Neck: The traditional C profile to the 3 piece mahogany neck has a nice buffed out ebony fretboard with a 12” radius, bone nut and 22 Medium Jumbo Jescar frets. The fretboard and headstock are bound in flame maple. It has small pearl face dots and black side dots. The headstock has an ebony overlay with ebony truss rod cover, vintage style Gotoh tuners with green keystones, and pearl inlayed Eastman logo. The nut width is 1 ¾” and the scale length is 25”.

Pickups/Hardware: The custom wound Lollar Imperial humbuckers sound fantastic on this instrument. There are 2 volumes, 2 tones, 3-way toggle switch, Switchcraft output jack, amber speed knobs, a Gotoh tailpiece and Gotoh tune-o-matic bridge.

Cosmetics: This instrument is in near brand new condition, you may find a couple small indents in the finish on the top but nothing severe or too unpleasing to the eye or touch. The frets are in perfect shape with no wear on them, they are smooth and level. There are no breaks cracks or visible repairs on this guitar and it looks stunning.

Playability: This has got to be one of the best playing semi hollow guitars I have played, it is so light and responsive. It has been inspected, set up and restrung with a new set of 10’s by our in-house guitar tech. The action is low, the neck is straight, the frets feel glassy smooth, the notes ring out pure and sustain beautifully!
