The Jr and Dread. The 335 style is for my lead guitarist (though I am going to order either an Eastman Juliet (original model), An sb56 (goldtop p90 Les Paul), or a T64v. Full hollow 335 type with dog ears and bigsby. Couldnt decide yesterday. I have an artist relationship with them so when I get guitars from them, I head up and walk through huge stacks of guitars (like 50K sq ft warehouse). I get good deals on any of their guitars. But if they are in backstock, even better. For example, all 3 of these guitars were about 2500 USD out the door for me. The E8d price is 1369 plus tax, 486 is 1699 plus tax and the Jr 1359 plus tax at retail. so about 4800.00 USD retail price. I have 3 more of their acoustics (GACE3 PCh, E520CE, and AC622koa) as well as a couple other electrics and an acoustic that are out on loan to people. Besides my 2 custom guitars I had made from cherry wood from my grandpas barn, all my guitars are Eastman.

Had, it’s gone now. It was a great guitar though.

If you are ever interested., let me know.. You'd probably love the Jr.

Check out the Juliet as well. It is a very interesting original design.

I would indeed love it I'm sure. I've made a commitment, though, since getting the bronco that my next guitar will be a Rick 12. I might finally start that Rom Petty tribute band at that point...and I'll probably be as old as he was by then, too.

Also, your super secret classified thread is gone now, too. 😎
