Eastman E40OM-TC, Thermo-Cured Bearclaw Adirondack Spruce, Indian Rosewood, Tone-Tite Neck - NEW - SOLD
SOLD
(NEW) Eastman Guitars joined forces with legendary luthier Dana Bourgeois a few years back, and since then Mr. Bourgeois has been consulting on the design, construction and voicing methods used to build Eastman flat tops. We're now beginning to see the results of that collaboration. This new model, the E40OM-TC, is the top of the line Orchestra Model offering from Eastman, and is one of the first guitars to have the new Tone-Tite neck joint. This neck has been used on Bourgeois guitars for many years. It is a glue-less neck joint that facilitates simple neck removal in the event that the guitar ever needs a neck set. Tonally, we feel that it sounds as nice as any dovetail, and the ease of maintenance brings some real peace of mind.
Truly one of the nicest Eastman OMs we've heard, and competes handily with any rosewood Orchestra Model in our shop! It's luxuriously decked out in pearl, so hopefully bling is your thing!
