Sound Pure's Take

335 style guitars have always been a favorite of mine, and these Eastman T486's are a very respectable homage to those classic guitars. Dual humbuckers can go from jazzy mellow to screaming 60's rock at the drop of a hat. 

From Eastman Guitars

Eastman thinline electrics are handcrafted, lacquered instruments–the way thinline guitars should be made. They have a warm, rich tone and feature select pickups from several leading manufacturers. Each Thinline Electric model has unique characteristics made possible by carefully crafted differences in body style, size and tonewoods.
