Electric Guitar / HN268983

Description of product

The Eastman Strings brand was founded in 1992 by Chinese flutist Qian Ni after graduating from the Boston University School of Music. Over the course of three decades, the company's portfolio has grown to include acoustic, semi-acoustic and electric guitars (Eastman Guitars) and with it the brand's fame, so that the company's players include such luminaries as James Dean Bradfield (Manic Street Preachers), Adrian Utley (Portishead) and Lee Ranaldo (Sonic Youth). In the case of Eastman instruments, you can rely on superior craftsmanship, demonstrated by features and techniques such as hand-reduced ribbing or individual tuning of the instrument's soundboard.

The Eastman SB59/TV is an electric guitar in a single-cut "LP" design. The mahogany body of the guitar is adorned with a solid flame maple top. The wood grain is enhanced by the body's gloss lacquer finish with a subtle hint of patina (Truetone Vintage Gloss) and Vintage Classic finish. A one-piece mahogany neck is glued to an ebony fingerboard fitted with twenty-two frets. Orientation on the fingerboard is facilitated by pearl position blocks (Pearl Crowns).

Two Lollar Custom Aged/Wound Imperial humbuckers give the guitar a clean, warm and dynamic 1950s PAF pickup sound that will stand out in rock, blues and a variety of other musical genres. Adjust the character of the sound using the standard controls. The strings are mounted in Gotoh tuning machines and through a Gotoh GE-104B-NI Relic bridge in the same brand's tuner. The nice workmanship is accentuated by the imitation ivory top and fingerboard binding, hardware with subtle patina elements (Antique Nickel) and pearl company logo on the headstock.

The guitar is supplied in a case.
