Unlike a lot of companies making guitars in Asia, this Eastman model is hand produced. The attention to detail, finish, action, and sound quality are all excellent. This a very fine playing and sounding instrument, we've always loved Eastman's for the exceptional quality for the price.

While the T59/v will cost more than an Epiphone, but not quite as much as a Gibson. Some would argue Eastman guitars have far better quality control than most mainstream brands on the market. After having played a selection of their guitars recently, they are every bit as good as far more expensive options.

Eastman's T59/v thinline semi has been around for a couple of years now, but Winter NAMM 2019 saw the company announce this updated version. Retaining the French-polished and aged patina pioneered in the company's violin department, here the T59/v has gained a gorgeous Antique Red finish, a hand-made pickguard and a narrower headstock design.

The neck is a nicely rounded ‘C' profile that nods in the direction of the 59's model name. Although the jack socket lives on the body edge and the bridge studs are screwed into bushings rather than directly into the body, for the most part, this guitar feels like ‘home' for anyone familiar with old-style Gibson and Epiphone semis.
