I came upon a very good offer for this Eastman guitar, saved my money (and sold a piece of unused gear, and a poem) and bought it. All but brand new. The guitar plays beautifully, with low action and a very slim neck. (Anyone reading this and expecting tech talk with be disappointed.) It's strung with D'Addario 10s, which seem just right; bendable, but also taut enough to stay in place with the right touch. A chord rings on this guitar forever. I use the neck pickup almost exclusively and the tone is mellow overall, and very responsive to variations in touch, which is great as I usually play finger style. It is a bit touchy to tune, but otherwise flawless as far as I can tell. I'm currently playing thru a Carvin MicroBass combo amp (don't cringe--it sounds great) because that's all I have, but I have my eye on a tube amp for the future.
