Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

Eastman has taken John Buscarino's acclaimed Cabaret, unique for its ability to dive deep into the two massive worlds of nylon and archtop guitar playing, and, under his careful guidance, achieved an airtight production model that meets Buscarino's own exacting standards.  The look and feel of every instrument are as sophisticated as they are effortless; the voice manages to comprehend both the precision and power of an acoustic archtop with all the nuance and color of a high end nylon.  Players will feel just as comfortable shedding into the wee hours (the sound port really will change your perspective on solo play) as they will performing amplified thanks to the top notch L.R. Baggs LB6 that comes standard in every model.

SP Luthier Notes: Restring, Reglue Bridge

From Eastman Guitars

A must have for the fingerstyle and jazz players, the Cabaret is a seamless blend of traditional nylon and acoustic archtop that honors the deepest roots of craftsmanship.
