Details
This Eastman AR-605CE was crafted in 2008 and it’s in excellent structural and cosmetic condition. It’s part of a series of instruments that archtop guitar expert Jim Fisch designed for Eastman. The idea was to create an affordable, solid wood archtop to inspire players who were unfamiliar with the style to give it a try. This 16-inch cutaway model has a carved, solid spruce top and a carved solid mahogany back, and has the punch and power that this style of guitar is known for. It’s fitted with a Kent Armstrong floating pickup, which produces a sweet, mellow tone that is well suited to jazz. Includes an Eastman fiberglass case in equally clean condition.
