Premium tonewoods and meticulous craftsmanship create a harmonious relationship that has made Eastman a name in the world of jazz guitars. The selection of tonewoods and the proven methods used to craft these guitars produce an organic, acoustic tone that is rarely achieved. Chords are full and harmonious, while individual notes are clear and well-articulated. The Lollar pickups do an outstanding job here.To be great is to be misunderstood. Eastman firmly believes in the de-stigmatization of "laminate guitars" (at least when it comes to jazz guitars). The highly compressed laminate woods dampen the overtones created by solid woods and are ideal for perfect tone reproduction in louder environments. Durability and versatility make Eastman laminated archtops the perfect choice for players looking for a more modern approach to their rig.Blues, rock, indie work just as well here as Oberkrainer or, of course, jazz.The "Varnished" finish of the T49 is lovingly made to look aged, making you wonder if this might actually be a treasured vintage piece you're holding in your hands. A dream of a jazz guitar, safely stored in a stylish case.
