Bought a used acoustic guitar (Not an Eastman) online from Guitar Center several years ago.
I really liked the guitar, but it had mold inside it.
Really smelled & thought it was the case.
Set the case outside with the lid open in the sunshine when the sun was out. Odor still there.
Looked inside the guitar & saw tiny white flecks of mold.
Read quite a few articles on how to kill the mold. Most said you can never get rid of it.
Yes, you can. Here's how I killed it.
Had an aquarium hood light with two led lights. Each about the size of a domino.
Placed the lights inside the guitar for around 12 hours per day.
The first 5 days odor still there. After the 6th day & apprx 70 hours the mold was dead, never returned & the odor was gone
