Hello! Love this forum. Lots of good information and advice. I’m a first time poster and just received a new (to me) 2018 Eastman E1OM. I think it’s their entry level all solid wood guitar? I’m 67 and have only been playing for 4 years, so I’m not as good/knowledgeable as some of you are, but this is the best guitar I’ve ever played. I’ve been playing an Alvarez Artist series OM and it’s a nice guitar but this Eastman is louder, more articulate, and the neck seems more forgiving to a relative newbie like me. I took it in for a set up and the guitar tech said he loves Eastmans. I think I do too!

Hello and welcome. I too started playing at a later age 4 years ago. Just got my first Eastman a short time ago and like it so much a second one is coming.

Hi,
I received my Eastman e1ss SB a few days ago. I can't believe how good it is. I'm an old guitar player and I didn't think to discover such a magical instrument at this price. Is someone already tried Gibson strings on that guitar? Thanks for your answers Didier
