Hi all. Ordered a T59/v in the middle of January. Any idea on what the back order wait time currently is?

Not sure about the T59/v, but I ordered a T486 back on June 3 and I'm still waiting. Blame COVID, Chinese New Year and a host of other reasons. Manufacturing and shipping are slow for all products these days.

Welcome Geology Guy. No idea, but your dealer should be able to get a quote from Eastman for your guitar. As mentioned, wait times are unprecedentedly long for Eastman guitars and other products.

I’ve just counted 33 brand new T486 guitars on sale on Reverb. Pretty much all configurations and finishes. There were 9 on eBay though there may be some overlap).
Why are some of you experiencing long wait times?

I have been trying to find a T59/v RD and also do not see any availability either through online stores nor Reverb.
Where are you guys buying T59s these days?

My T486 arrived first week of March after a nine month wait. It didn't matter how many were for sale on Reverb because none of them would ship to Canada. Patience is a virtue and any Eastman is totally worth the wait.
