BETTER than a LES PAUL?

  • This Eastman single cut guitar is legit top shelf. With some of the nicest fretwork that I've ever seen, Lollar pickups, a beautiful, classic finish, and high grade components, the SB57/N-BK is an obvious alternative to a traditional Les Paul. While this is not necessarily a budget instrument, I think you're getting way more for your money than the "other" choice in this style. What do you guys think?

    Gibson slogan: Only a Gibson is good enough. Eastman slogan: When good enough isn't good enough.

    After playing over 50 gibsons trying to find the right Les Paul for me I tried an Eastman bought the Eastman . Eastmans are built the way Gibson's were built on the early days so Eastman over current Gibson any day.

    I bought a Les Paul Standard in the early 70s (used). Almost 50 years later I decided I wanted another. It didn't have to be new.

    You can tell you really like it, your playing reflects that, and yes, it came through in the video. The price reflects the quality and the tone as well, beautiful sounding, I didn't like the look of the tuners, but I am sure they are very functional. Beautiful guitar, thanks for the review, it was this review that made look closer at Lollar pups. I am looing at putting one of those in my other guitars. You are always surprising us with new cool guitars, which I appreciate! thanks!!

    Nobody has a bad thing to say about these guitars. Gorgeous in black too.

    I guess all guns are pointed at Gibson now. Schecter has their own version of the LP, Eastman vs Schecter shoot out would be cool.

    I’m very familiar with these Eastman handmade guitars. They are the best quality you will ever find at this price point. It was a little hard to convince s few of my friends to spend this amount on an instrument made in China. But it’s not a factory made instrument, it is literally hand made by a small team of luthiers. As you mentioned, the feel is amazing and it sounds amazing. Last year when these were initially released, they were actually difficult to find, they were sold out everywhere as soon as they were stocked. I would say they are heirloom quality, something to leave your kids. Great video.

    I sold my Epiphone and my Taylor to get this guitar and it was worth it! After playing it for awhile I can say, it is an absolute work of art. It feels like a guitar I've been playing for years, just has "that feeling" I was looking for.

    One of the most articulate guitars I've heard you review. I listened to the intro and immediately thought, yeah that's actual Gibson quality sound.

    These go for $1,800 ($1,759) brand new in most stores. $2,200 is list. I own two Eastmans -- earlier models, the SB59s. One is a vintage amber and has Duncan Antiquities (they go with Lollars now) and one burst model with Duncan '59s (they still put these in their nitro bursts). I love them. It's only a matter of time before I get this one and the SB56.

    Great review! I own Eastman acoustics, price to quality ratio they are an amazing company.

    I recently picked up the SB59-GD, and a week later, the SB59/v. Amazing. Both of those guitars are beyond anything I have owned in the 35 years of playing. They absolutely smoke the current Gibson guitars - Gibson wishes they made guitars this good.
