Eastman SB59 Review (Guitar & Bass May 2017)

I was the first dealer in the UK to experience the Eastman SB59. My immediate feeling was this was something incredibly special as was demonstrated by my 2 videos on the SB59 and the beautiful V (vintage) model.

If you would like to see the two videos I created you will find them here and here

However, just to demonstrate that I never waste your time with false praise, PLEASE check out Guitar & Bass magazines latest review complete with about 9 pages of background information on Eastman guitars. It comes from their May edition.

Just click on the image for a PDF. Enjoy!

Title: Great tone and feel – exactly what I was hoping for! I recently received my new guitar

Title: Great tone and feel – exactly what I was hoping for!

I recently received my new guitar, and I have to say, my first impressions are really positive. The build quality feels solid right out of the box, but the biggest standout for me is definitely the sound. It has such a rich, clear tone with nice depth – whether I’m playing soft melodies or strumming chords, it projects beautifully and has a really warm, pleasing character.

The playability is smooth too, making it comfortable to practice or play for longer sessions. It feels well-balanced and looks just as good as it sounds. For anyone looking for a reliable instrument with a great voice, this one absolutely delivers. Very happy with my purchase!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Would you like me to make it shorter, or add a bit more detail about the type of music it suits best?

I have not had chance to really try the Yamaha Revstar out yet as I have not accepted the guitar

I have not had chance to really try the Yamaha Revstar out yet as I have not accepted the guitar which was sent to me because of its condition. The marks on the back of the guitar were unacceptable bearing in mind it was supposed to be a new guitar. When or if I get the guitar I ordered then I will test the guitar properly. Really disappointed with the ordering process and the so called action by Yamaha
