I posted this elsewhere but I thought it was suitable for here since there is at least one Eastman in each picture.
Updated February 21, 2025 -
Below are four years progression of my silly habit of buying and selling acoustic guitars. I have to admit the comings and goings can be addictive and I am pushing my luck on shipping. The two I wish I wouldn't have sold are the John Walker Wise River and Eastman E40OM. One of these days I will slow down, but it has been fun "renting" some fine instruments.
February 7, 2022 - L->R - Farida OT-22W, Martin 000-28EC, Eastman E40OM, Iris DF and Eastman E8D-TC

Almost all new for February 21, 2025 Left to Right:
2024 Eastman E10-LGSS/V-LTD-SB - 20th anniversary LA Guitars model. Torrefied Adirondack/Mahogany. Reminds me of a cross between an LG2 and 00-18. Very balanced and nice projection
2023 Atkin 000 37S - Torrefied Sitka/EIR. 12 fret model with 25.4" scale. I like Atkin's 45 mm nut as it is a touch over 1.75". Just received this yesterday but am quite impressed.
2020 Gibson Custom 1936 Historic J-35 - Torrefied Adirondack/Honduran Mahogany. 1.77" nut and big neck. Mistaken Banner headstock logo. Big, bold and loud.
2015 Eastman E10 00-12F-M - Adirondack/Mahogany, 12 fret L-00 body style with all mahogany construction. Replaced bridge and saddle. Surprisingly loud for a small body. Interesting all mahogany tone. I am not sure this is a keeper but still an interesting guitar. I have it listed in the classifieds. If it sells - great. If it doesn't - equally great.
2019 (?) Farida OT-22W - Sitka/laminate Mahogany. LG2 style. I keep this an an inexpensive foul weather guitar and guinea pig to practice my tech skills - speed neck, slotted bridge, new tuners, new nut, etc
