Howdy everyone! I'm the gent with the Eastman 8D for sale on the cafe I've had the pleasure of chatting with a few of you over email about the guitar. Truthfully, I'm not a guitar expert by any stretch, but I've been fiddling around on guitar, mandolin, fiddle, and banjo for a long time. Although I'm not as skilled of a picker like many of you, I think my ear has developed over the years and when I compare this guitar to some of my friends guitars, the sound it so much fuller and well balanced with very good volume as well. Although it's not a newer model it still needs to be played in. If someone buys it and really starts to play it hard it will open up beautifully. Just wanted to share some info with y'all  

The guitar is a pretty true 1 3/4 inch nut and I think it plays very nice. It really is in wonderful condition and it comes with a couple of straps and picks. If I'm trying to sell it, forgive me - I am My intention really was to make myself known to y'all and to let you know that I'm happy to answer questions as best I can. I think it's time someone started really working this guitar in Also, I'm willing to take $600 + shipping if anyone is interested. I'm also willing to meet someone up to an hour or so away from my home. I love in central, IL. I don't think you'll be disappointed at all. 

Thanks again for considering it y'all. -Scott

Scott -- I'll be putting my Guild Westerly OM-140ce for sale on Craigslist in the next day or two, and I'd be interested in your E8D if it hasn't already sold before I find a buyer for the Guild. But don't wait for me if you get someone who wants it -- who knows when or if I'll find a buyer anytime soon. 

EDITED TO ADD: The Guild is now up on Cincinnati Craigslist -- we'll see what (if anything) happens!

Scott --  Congrats on the sale (and darn it!)
