Posted 8 day ago! I know some folks on here are jonesing for one of these...https://nh.craigslist.org/msg/d/auburn-eastman-ac820-guitar/6838007408.html

Eastman AR403
=============
Hollow body archtop. Bought new in 2012. Upgraded all electronics to Gibson 57 Classic pickup, 500k audio taper CTS pots, Switchcraft jack, and an orange drop cap (.033). It includes its original hard case. It's a well played but in great condition. It was my main jazz guitar and I gigged with it, so you'll see some very minor wear. But I take good care of my gear. There is a scratch in between the volume and tone knobs and a finish imperfection between neck/body by the cutaway (see pics). It plays and sounds great! The electronics upgrades really do the trick...57 classic sounds sweet in it. It currently has D'Addario XL EJ21 (12-52) strings on it but the high E and B strings are swapped out to an .014 and an .018 respectively. I was going for that Peter Bernstein sort of tone I guess.

$725 + $50 shipping in continental usa

Ehere do you all get audio stuff? I like to keep a supply (from Ebay) of jacks and plugs but I found I am out of 1/4" jacks. So what chain might carry 1/4" jacks?

I have noticed that the 3rd and 4th strings are very close to 2nd and 5th posts. Has anyone found this to be an issue and does the T386 have tuning issues like other simular models? Also what make are tuners and bridge? Is bridge metric?
Thanks

The Guild  I bought a month ago will not be adopted into the family. It's bit bigger than my Eastman AC512 OM. It's also a little louder than my Eastman AC422 Grand Auditorium. The loudest OM I've played. The Eastmans in my opinion, have a prettier tone. I wanted a more mellow sweet sitka OM, so a Guild forum member is going to buy it, and I bought a Seagull Artist Studio Concert Hall Burst OM. That is actually the model name, all that, This is a very very sweet sounding sitka OM I am very happy with. I could have bought an Eastman sitka OM, but that would be too close to my AC422 GA. I'd say maybe the Seagull tone is between an E8OM and a  Martin 000-28. A strong bass and good projection. sweeter than the Martin 000 and OM sitka/rw models I've played.

This is a snippet of an original tune I've been messing with for a few years, "Waiting."  It's a simple little thing in G.  Played my AC320 on a beautiful Sunday morning in Oklahoma.

Hey guys -

This video is a bit overdue; I wanted to capture my new Eastman E10OM-TC in action for the folks here on EGF.  As with any recording, the microphone, room and other variables can impact the final recording, but this hopefully provides a good feel for the tone of the TC.  I just got the guitar back from the shop today with a fresh setup, and it plays like a dream.  Brand new Elixir Phosphor bronze installed.

I think most folks know this classic Stevie Wonder song - the arrangement is by Adam Rafferty... thanks for watching/listening!

Brand new Blueridge BR-162, 000 body size, rosewood back and sides, sitka spruce top. Same body size as BR-163, differences are 1) 12 frets to the body and 2) 1 3/4" nut width rather than 1 11/16" and 3) Bridge is further away from the sound hole creating theoretically a warmer, more mellow tone. The BR-162 has a standard scale length like the BR-163 and BR-160. Price is $940 shipped no case, no gig bag. Shipped with case $1010. Personal check ok, or Cashier's check. On Musician's Friend presently for $1299, free shipping, no case, with occasional discount offers.

Anyone in Utah looking for a deal. Price drop to $599. The usual caveats apply. I just thought it was a good price.
