Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

Stunning!  This is truly Eastman at the uppermost height of their powers--the 905CEs have long been our pick for an affordable, high quality, all-solid, 16" archtop, but this Limited model has the looks, the hardware, and the condition to make this guitar a once-in-who-knows-when kind of deal.  

SP Luthier Notes: Fretwork, Setup ("This is a fantastic guitar!")

From Eastman Guitars

Fans of traditional or modern jazz will feel right at home with our handcrafted take on archtop guitars. We’ve brought classic designs to life and into the hands of legendary players like John Pisano and Frank Vignola
