Now In Stock Acoustic Guitars & Mandolins


Eastman Acoustic guitars are the latest addition to our line of fine instruments. Each guitar is handcrafted with a solid top, back, and sides. The top is individually-voiced with scalloped X-bracing. The neck is hand-fitted to the body with a dovetail joint. Each guitar is finished with a rosewood headstock overlay, ebony fingerboard, bridge and bridge pins, and a hand-rubbed nitro-cellulose gloss lacquer finish. This selection of guitars has been developed to meet the needs of today's demanding musicians.


We've also added Eastman's fine line of mandolins.  Available in A, F and 2-point styles, Eastman mandolins are made to the same exacting standards as the great mandolins of the 1920's. The combination of Eastman's luthiery skills with tonewoods previously reserved for fine violins results in a classically beautiful instrument possessing unrivalled projection and richness of tone.

We invite you to visit our showroom and play these beautiful guitars and mandolins.  They sound as incredible as they look!   We're confident you'll be impressed with them.   Also visit on the web Eastman Guitars or Eastman Mandolins for complete specifications and photos on all models.
