Sound Pure's Take
The ER1 is a great alternative to the Eastman semi-hollow design. Designed by Otto D'Ambrosio, this smaller bodied, lightwight guitar has incredible tone. The elimination of F-holes helps prevent feedback at higher volume levels when plugged in and the Kent Armstrong humbucker provides dark and creamy jazz tone. We especially like the "bar-style" fret markers. It's time to set yourself apart and travel light!
