I have this guitar in red, with flame that is not to be believed. And I agree with you, it is an amazing instrument. I have YET to have anyone play it that didn't rave over it. Eastman makes some sensational instruments.
If I didn't already have a double humbucker semi-hollow I would get one. I already have Eastman's casino, 59 LP, and a mandolin. I've accidentally become an Eastman collector, they make amazing instruments for the money.
That guitar is drop-dead gorgeous! I am very impressed. And I have heard nothing but great things about this guitar. In fact, I just ordered one in the 'Classic' red finish for myself today. Thanks for a great review!
Congratulations dude. I’m sure you’re gonna love it.
Looks may be secondary, but they're important for your look as a performer. Also, a beautiful guitar inspires one to play. That Eastman is a beauty.
Really nice guitar Tony. Beautiful wood and finish. Sounds great with the 57 pickups. Nice playing demos.
Sweet guitar Tony…look forward to hearing more of it this sunday…rock on my brother!!!
Happy for you Tony, that thing is sweet!!!
Yes, looks count! Good choice!
Guitar Pawn - love watching all this Eastman SemiHollow content - keep 'em coming 😍
Bought a T486, I am in love. You sound great!!!!!!!
Awesome guitar and killer demo. 👍
I got one last month and it’s the best guitar I have am going for the les Paul next ..great post 👌👍
Beautiful guitar
Gorgeous guitar!
Thanks Tony
hello tony , congrats on the new guitar .
Excellent review as always!
I appreciate that
Love the Eastman guitars. I got my lefty in red a couple of years ago. I've since bought an SB59 as well. That too is fantastic (this could be your next one Tony). Finish is either nitro or something called truetone they switched around 2020 it seems.
Still addicted after all these years 🤘🤷♂️🤘
I think looks are important. It helps bond with it when I’m happy just to look at it.
It's gorgeous Tony I am sure you will enjoy for years.
I think so too!
Nice guitar, Tony!
Love my T486! Same color as yours too! The finish is possibly nitro depending on the year it was made. Eastman switched to a thin poly finish called "truetone" around mid 2021.
Thanks I’ll check the date
Damn!!! I guessed right on Instagram!!
Best lookin guitar I ever saw
Eastman can only be compared to Collings. In build quality. You’re holding a $7000 guitar in your hands. Handmade! And once people start to catch on? You’re going to see the prices skyrocket on eastman.
I agree, lets keep it between you and me. I like the prices as they are...Thanks for watching.
Tell me that is one beautiful guitar I love it
I bought one. Love it! With case mine was under $1300. Gibson 345 flame top, sides and back, with case..$$$$
It's a nitro finish.
That was a awesome deal!
I've yet to see anyone say they don't like Eastmans. Always quite the opposite.
Can you get a sunburst like that on a 486 today? I can't find one anywhere. If I could get that finish I would buy it in a heartbeat.
Yes you can. They still sell these.
Jescar not Jester!
Not sure I’d describe swapping a great set of pickups for another great set of pickups an upgrade…
True unless your really like the new set.
I have a 2020 T386 SB on the way. The finish looks to be nearly mint. I am debating whether to degloss the back of neck when it arrives. I'm not sure what the finish is on these newer Eastman guitars. Anyone know? Might be hard to mess with that gorgeous finish, even to speed up the neck. But ... not sure.
I would leave it. It doesn’t seem sticky to me.
@@addictedtogear Probably good advice.
Glossy Eastmans used to have nitro finish, but at the ending of 2021 they decided to switch to a urethane finish they call Truetone.
Still debating buying a hollow body. Never owned one, but I feel if I did, it wouldn't suit my style. Already sold my thinline tele.
You need to try to know..
I own the T486B. Without doubt it leaves Gibson in the dust. End of story...
Just got mine today and sounds really dark to me
what is the neck profile like?
Very comfortable C shape
The ffreys are stainless that's what the name implies.
??
@@addictedtogear Fret wire is stainless steel on most Eastman guitars and the finish is Nitro on most of them, the T59v I have is hand rubbed.
I own an Eastman archtop and it is excellent. However, I hate that they bind the f-holes. When the eye falls on the f-holes of these beautiful guitars they really do start to look cheesy.
That’s interesting, I like the binding on my T484 and feel it’s something my Heritage H530 is lacking…
Wait.... Tony is not going to swap out the pickups???????!!!
Never say never…you never know…
Buy a Gibson you will respect yourself in the morning !
Gibsons are great but make no mistake these Eastman t486 guitars are great for half the price.
I have the Eastman 371/ ES175 single HB
FANTASTIC!!!
