  DT30D Arriving Monday K&K vs. Fishman
Posted by: Maxgea83 - Forum: Eastman Acoustic Guitars - Replies (16)

DT30D arrives monday to the lands of Costa Rica.

Hey my name is Max. New to the group. Ive had few Eastmans
AC122CE
E1
E10SS
And soon a DT30D.

I've playing for a 3 Years and I actually make a living out live performance turnes out I had it. I started with an alvarez. Then moved to an Oscar by Washburn by this point I didnt have a clue about bodies or tones or laminated or solid or woods. And one day I saw in a little town where I live in Costa Rica the sexy ars of an AC122CE and trade it for a drum set that I inhereted from whom was leaving the country I fell in love with the brand installed some Grover Tuners had a bridge lift made the mistake of installing a pre-amp pickup (cutting the wood of that beautiful guitar) didnt know then guys I am sorry and after Installed the Matrix Infinity Blend. Well long Story Short I fell In love with the brand but I started to learn about laminated woods and solid woods and went for the first upgrade an E1 installing a Matrix Infinity on that and the E10SS buuut.

All of them have used a Fishman Matrix infinity Blend. It has been so far the best acoustic guitar Electronics I have used it gives something like an 80% of the real sound of the guitar when on stage. Tried the LR Baggs anthem and is too plastic.
But I came across a few videos with the K&K Trinity Pro System and I am really intrigued if anyone has any experience with these.

Thanks in advance!!!

  Eastman Mandolins?
Posted by: Rockabillydoc - Forum: General Chatter - Replies (3)

Anyone here play mandolin? I’ve been a guitar player for 40+ years and recently purchased an Eastman 515v.

It’ll be about a week before I receive it. Looking forward to new fun adventures with the mandolin.
It has an antique varnish finish. I’ve heard they seem to sound more open and lively. Here is a pic of the little read headed las, and yes it’s left handed.

  When the screw snaps
Posted by: ThemisSal - Forum: Eastman Acoustic Guitars - Replies (14)

By the way, dont buy cheap $5 strap buttons/screws made overseas from Amazon....

Lesson learned.

I asked on AGF and UMGF, but I’m debating whether to go straight to a luthier, which might take a week, or order a high quality vice grip and slowly turn and back it out that way...

Still haven’t decided. This is an Eastman. I did order a better strap button from D’Addario.

  Eastman & Tariffs
Posted by: Pura Vida - Forum: General Chatter - Replies (11)

I want to be careful here, so we don't end up in a political debate.  But Eastman made the news with the latest round of tariffs, so I thought I'd share, in case anyone missed it.

Howdy! I am new to these parts!
I recently took possession of a sunburst top E6D and PCH1 OM CLA..
I purchased them at my local guitar shop here in Rockwall, TX.. Morrison Guitars.. Bought them together.
The E6D is a dynamic cannon of a guitar with excellent highs, lows and mids.. Just a great axe and the second one I have owned over the past few years.. My first E6D was a natural top and sounded amazing. It was just not  as substantial as the new burst one I bought and when I dug into it just kind of buckled under the pressure. Not this new one.. The neck profile is slightly beefier. It was made to be strummed with vigor and really projects. It also is a very responsive finger picker as well..

I have also owned an AC422 OM in the past that I sold but it was a great guitar.. Picked it up for $350 on CL a few years ago and wish I would've kept it..

The PCH OM is obviously the budget line for Eastman with the lam back and sides. However, it is a great little guitar in its own right and is my office / couch / campfire guitar.

I am a Guild guitar enthusiast as well and I am a member of the Lets Talk Guild forum.. There is some love for Eastmans over there.. Any true guitar enthusiast who is not completely fixated on only US made guitars agrees that Eastman is a tremendous value for the money. I love that they are handmade in a true instrument workshop where folks pride themselves on making high quality instruments. Glad to be here!

  Eric Clapton: Nobody Knows You ...

Eric Clapton's take on this number :-

Not bad Eric, bit bland though. Solo guitar and voice might have been interesting - like Scrapper Blackwell

Never even heard of this guy till I stumbled across this a couple of days ago. What a guitarist! And best guitar version (nobody but nobody performs it like Bessie Smith) I've heard of Nobody knows You When You're Down And Out  :-
