Eastman Price Increases

[Elvengrail]

Seems prices on all models went up by $50, though I think the archtops went up alot more. It’s still a great deal for what you’re getting: real ebony, real pearl, Ivoroid binding, nitro etc...

I’m after that T486 with the real Bigsby it’s $1499 now abit disappointed I wasn’t able to secure it before the price went up

Eastman YT channel has nothing abt the new thinlines or the gypsy guitars, nothing at all abt NAMM 2018. Weird.

You might check with dealers who have the T486 in stock, they might sell it to you based on their cost. I was able to do that on a new 2011 Eastman E20D that went up from 900 to 1000.

When you look at the price increases from the big names over the past ~5yr, Eastman's increase is very modest.

worth ever penny on top of that
