Eastman E10OOSS / Gibson J35
What's Hot
This is a lovely example of Eastman's small bodied acous
tic. These have an incredible spec and sound for the money. Top is solid adirondack spruce. Sides and back are solid mahogany. Neck is mahogany and fretboard is rosewood. Finished in nitro throughout, gloss for the body and satin for the neck.
Condition is excellent, I've struggled to find much in the way of playwear or dings on this guitar. Check out the photos.
It sounds lovely, much bigger than the body would suggest. I can provide some sound samples on request although mic'ing an acoustic is never quite the same as being in the room with it.
Comes with fitted hard case.
£750 plus delivery. I would prefer collection or meet up but will consider posting UPS insured. I can meet between Alnwick and Wetherby on the A1 or Carlisle on the M6.
Richard's Guitars are the dealer for these in the UK and they're asking £1239. This is a lot cheaper and you don't need to deal with Richard.

Comments
With its nice chunky neck and loud woody tone I'd say this is a great strummer's guitar.
It's got a really cool retro vibe going on, with the white tuners, screenprinted "Only a Gibson is good enough", and nifty tiger-stripe 'guard.
Cosmetically this is very close to new, I've found a couple of tiny marks on the top and a few scratches on the pickguard and that's about it. The case is plush, and the whole package is very nice.
As above, if anyone wants to hear the guitar or see a video, hit me up.
A used J45 could set you back about £1700, this is very close to the same thing for £1100.
