I picked out a nice one. Unreal value when one considers the prices for Gibson.

Any other Eastman owners out there?

That looks fine, I just dabble a lil' bit in mandolin. I have a Johnson resonator. I need to practice that more - still can't figure out how to play in other keys than G.:lol Are you a bluegrass player?

hanknc: Nice stuff!

Here's my Eastman 815. I've had it over two years. Great bang for buck ratio.

Nicun' Hank!

I spent a day at Gianna's Violins going through a fresh shipment of Eastmans to pick out the best one I could and low and behold it turned out to be a 505! It's a killer, but scroll envy can be a powerful thing!

Sliding-tom, I am learning fiddle tunes on it. I get the adult dose of Bluegrass music around these parts.

Yeah, Gianna's about 10 miles away from here. Glad you found a goodin'!
