Completely unbeatable value. And honestly, if they charged same price as the American guitar it would still be an amazing value. I have an sb59 and it is absolutely the best ‘59 spec guitar I’ve ever picked up. The fact that the only comparison is a custom shop for 3x the price makes anyone unwilling to even try one insane
Nice - one picky thing is I think it’s a bit daft the way they place the tuners, each one perpendicular to the edge of the curved head stock, rather than parallel to o E another. It looks wrong and I think it would also bother me in use. I haven’t tried one but I think if I did, I’d straighten up the tuners.
Hey Steve, I felt the same too. But in use they are fine, it is all part of the character. Fit and finish is streets ahead of my Gibson. I cannot put this down. Try one 👍
Honestly, these are so good after a minute you won’t even notice them. Fantastic build quality and beautifully finished. The stock pickups are great, they do everything you’d expect from a 335…even where the jack socket is is better. Try one, you’ll be blown away.
@@kingstumble I like them, it makes it a bit different to a bog standard 335 copy, I like the Jack socket on the body side better too. They’re amazing guitars, it’s much better finished and put together than my Les Paul Standard was.
Eastman guitars are very good I have two of there acoustics I just love but I agree with the headstock shape assessment I usually stray away from those goofy curved shapes. I prefer a straighter string path to the nut.
It is laminated I think from Maple. To get the arched back and sides requires high pressure, and possibly heat or steam. Ply? Similar principle, but different materials often birch, flat and acoustically dead.

Does it not make more sense to follow the curve of the headstock? I quite like how they look. It certainly wouldn't put me off.

Beautiful intro…What kind of acoustic resonance does it have, while not plugged in?
Very resonant unplugged! You could happily noodle on this without an amp, though it will always shine when plugged in :)
@@GuitarVillageFarnham Thats just great! I am grateful and am getting this guitar in 6-7 days...😃
@@GuitarVillageFarnham Oh... Is there a vid with an extended intro like in this vid? I have been using it as a backing track :)
🎸🎸🎸
Where is this one made?
Handcrafted in China.
The delay makes you sound sloppy af,not good
Another plywood guitar, what's the excitement?
Nearly every Gibson semi-hollow has the same construction!
@@GuitarVillageFarnham Oh I know LOL, they keep and charging thousands for those garbage guitars, and all morons are happy to pay, sucker never die.
