Verify saddle size E10SS-TC (new)
Posted by: dmoss74 - Forum: General Chatter - Replies (3)

Can anyone verify the size of the saddles on the E10SS-TC? This is a '24 model that I just bought. I want to get one that I can sand down further, while leaving the original taller, in case I end up liking that.

I emailed MaNichol on ebay, and he said to verify. They have both 69mm and 71mm for sale. 

I don't have my caliper on hand today, and don't want to remove the saddle right now.

If anyone knows the dims, I'd appreciate the info.

I also have a mid 10s E6OM, and an AC 420 from the same era, if anyone knows those sizes as well.

thanks

Hi all. I’m moving out of state and selling my guitar collection. So I’m needing help on pricing some Eastman guitars to sell. I have two E20D’s an E8OM aE10OM and a E10SS all are in excellent condition. Thoughts on what I should price them? Thanks Al.

  ‘18 E40OM vs ‘21 E40OM-TC Bourgeois influenced
Posted by: TomC - Forum: Eastman Acoustic Guitars - Replies (11)

So it comes as no surprise that I love my E40OM short scale, Adirondack/Rosewood dove tail neck joint with Nitro finish. I was always intrigued by the E40OM-TC made in ‘21 on a limited basis. These are long scale, bolt on necks, Torrefied Adirondack/Rosewood with TrueTone finish. I never got around to trying the new one.
On Monday I received an email asking if I wanted to sell the 2018. I declined. Then I saw an ad for the ‘21 available for pick-up in Chicago. As luck would have it, I had a trip to Chicago Tuesday. I met up with the seller and bought it. Sold the 2018 at the same time. I am shipping the 2018 tonight. Before I do I plan to do a quick comparison between the two. Sorry for the click bait post but more to come.

  Fretboard Inlays
Posted by: Tone1 - Forum: Eastman Acoustic Guitars - Replies (1)

Hi, I am looking at buying an AC322CE here in the uk. Is it possible to tell the latest model by looking at the fretboard inlays? Which year did they start to put the Hurricane? Inlays at the 7th and 12th frets?
I have noticed that there are not many available. In fact the shop in Epsom seems to have the only one available at the moment. Could it be a dud?
Cheers

Does anyone know the type of pickguard used on the T486 Archtop guitar? I'm going nuts trying to find a replacement. Thanks!

Hi All,

If I recall correctly, several EGF members have expressed an appetite for an all-mahogany smaller-bodied Eastman.

 Just passing long, fyi, that this (below) is currently listed on Reverb, as "mint". (Notes: 1. the price might come up in Canadian dollars depending on how the linkage works, and 2. i have no affiliation with the seller.)

All best,

  SB55DC/V Inlay
Posted by: samwchristmas - Forum: Eastman Electric and Archtop Guitars - No Replies

Hey guys!

First time poster here, I've had an SB55DC/V since November last year and it's mainly been kept at my office.

I put it in its case at the end of each day and today I noticed that one of the inlays has chipped! Quite unfortunate! Has anyone got any recommendations for a replacement inlay? Photo attached.

Thanks in advance!
Sam

  Current SB59 stock production
Posted by: SolidBody59 - Forum: Eastman Electric and Archtop Guitars - Replies (6)

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to try out an SB59/V Red Burst at a local store. They said it was an old stock. I instantly fell in love with it and couldn't stop playing. I had decided then that I would buy it. However, that guitar was sold, so I started looking for other retailers in Europe and found many. The question is: since the demand for Eastman guitars has increased significantly in the last 2 years, do you think that the earlier productions of the SB59, referring to years 2019/2020, are better than the current productions, or have they managed to maintain the same level, even though they have grown incredibly? Does anyone have any information on this or has tried any recent Eastman guitars? Thanks!!
