Looking to purchase a T49V or 371 in classic antique finish. Either single or double pickup models will be considered. Please let me know if you have one for sale! 

Thanks
Matt

I just picked up a T486 and am fairly amazed at how nice it is. However, I just have to add to what others have said which is that the the Jazz neck pickup is a poor choice for this model. It is just way too bright and thin for my taste. 

The T59/v has Seymour Duncan Antiquities pickups, which as I understand it, are Seymour Duncan Seth Lovers that have had the magnets degaussed.

I put Seth Lovers in my T486 and that completely cured the problem. It sounds fantastic. I highly recommend that set if you too find your T486 to be too bright and lacking body. (Really, I think any of the quality PAF style pups are going to sound good - Lollar Imperials, Gibson Burstbuckers, etc.)

Using Seth Lovers is also in keeping with the idea that the 486 is a new guitar vs the 59/v being the well-aged vintage version of the same guitar.

Hopefully this will help someone wondering about pickup options.

I purchased this E20OM MR TC back in early 2024 having played mostly dreads previously and nylon classical. It's great for fingerstyle, but I keep going back to nylon for most things and dreads for strumming.

$1500+shipping or trade for an equivalent dread.
Guitar is like new, with warranty card/unregistered.

Looking to confirm that on an AC412 that...

1) The bridge pins are the same size as what is currently being used on Eastman Acoustics

2) The Truss Rod adjustment is made with a 4mm Allen/Hex Key

I have contacted Pomona already, got a GREAT CS Rep to assist me, but sadly, they have VERY limited info on my actual guitar, which is an AC410. AC410's were only sold in 2008, per Pomona.

Pomona DID state in their reply email that the AC412 is simply a renamed AC410,  so I want to get that info on the AC412, as it should be the same  for my AC410.

So if you know the answers, I'd be grateful for your  response.

Hi

I just bought a 2023 E20OO, which I am having a lot fun of joy with. But I discovered some light grey spots on the headstock. I went to rub it out with naphtha but I guess I rubbed too much and it took out the finish. (The grey spots are still there, incidentally)

Is there a way I can touch up where the finish rubbed off?

I don't personally mind it but if this doesn't end up being a forever guitar for me, I don't want to have to drop the condition a level at resale because of rubbed out finish.

You can't really see it in the attached picture but I am including in order to identify the location of the issue (you can see the grey spots)

bonus if anyone has other ideas on removing the grey spots. I have no idea what they are but they appear to be on the surface.

Anyone have a specific capo recommendation that fits this guitar without a lot of monkeying around?  Reasonably priced and not spring loaded.
Thanks Mike

Selling my Eastman E8 OM. This guitar is in incredible shape. I don’t gig and it’s never left the house. It has a solid Sitka spruce and beautiful solid rosewood back and sides.

Comes with a solid hardshell case.

Hate to let it go but I just bought a new acoustic!

$900 shipped.

Ive seen some people install les paul style pick-gaurd and poker chips on their SB59. Just wondering where you get them from. would I just grab one from Stew-Mac? Also, I understand the spacing is slightly different from a Gibson and it requires slight modification of the pick-gaurd, what tools would/did you use to shave off a bit of it?

I did a restring on my E2D last night with some GHS PB lights, and the B string was missing from the sealed baggie. Has anyone ever had this happen? I’ve never seen that. Not the end of the world as I had a couple of extra packs of DR Rare, but I’ve just never seen a string missing from a sealed baggie, lol.

Hi everyone,

Visit the Eastman website and you'll see the big news: FullerTone, which is supposed to be the affordable version of the d'Ambrosio guitars inspired by Fender.

I'll look forward to seeing the reviews!
