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 T386-RD is a semi-hollowbody electric guitar in the style of the popular ES-335 "thinline" models. The body of the guitar is made of laminated maple. A maple neck with a nice "C" profile is glued to an ebony fingerboard with twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets. Orientation on the fingerboard is facilitated by pearl position dots.

Two Kent Armstrong humbuckers give the guitar the vintage tone and feel of PAF pickups that you'll love in jazz, blues and rock. Adjust the character of the sound using the standard controls. The strings are held in nickel tuning machines and through the TOM bridge in the stringers. The nice workmanship is accentuated by the double-sided imitation ivory body binding, black-lined pickguard and mother-of-pearl company logo on the headstock.

The guitar comes in a case.
