I got this T59/V 2 years ago. It's an incredible tone machine ! I just tried it for curiosity, and was blown out, and had to buy it. It is far better tone than any Gibs ES that I tried, for half the price. One may be surprised by the aging: it is perfectly done and looks like you've played it everyday since 1959. When you get it in your hands, on your stomach, it feels warm. Just incredible. You'll play blues, rock, jazz with THE TONE.
I had the same reaction. A dream guitar .
Same here 👌😍
after watching this , i went and viewed one, omg what a fantastic guitar, ended up purchasing it, build quality is exceptional……...
Absolutely amazing demo man! I’m so on love with this guitar, coming from someone that owns a figured 335, and a Guild Starfire IV.
hard to argue with how good it sounds
That thing looks and sounds sensational
Nice tones, nice playing, pretty guitar.
Great playing man! Tone super
This might be my dream guitar its so versatile jazzy tones blues tones flat out rock tones and that finish is amazing just a beautiful guitar. I could see myself selling 2 or 3 of my guitars to buy this. I have a Epiphone Sheraton which I love but this is next level. This is more a pro players guitar. Not sure i can justify it but man what a sweet guitar
Very nice guitar
Wow that is sweet...
Nice.
Recently purchased this guitar, incredible sound, finish quality all around. Will be selling my Gibson 335's.
sure
Sounds pretty bright
Love the Zeppelin quote.
Thanks for this excellent demo. This guitar may be in my future. 🙂
Update: Used T386 SB is on the way across country via fed x. I'm curious what kind of pickups you think work well with this guitar. I'll be playing mostly blues and jazz.
The fact you can get these used for around $1700 is pretty crazy. Just ordered one :)
How are you finding it? I've got one coming to me in about five weeks.
@@dociledeer3818 I love it. Like REALLY love it. It does everything I want a duel humbucker guitar to do from mostly clean jazzy tones to classic rock and even some heavier Zeppelin style stuff. Theres a lot of versatility in the tone and volume knobs. I cant imagine ever getting rid of it. Its my second eastman in this antique finish and they're so incredible feeling. Ive played a few guitars from the 60s and this genuinely feels like its over 40 years old. The finish is understandably fragile so if you are thinking of gigging with it I would be cautious. Enjoy it
@@mattwilliams3104 Ahhh, great to hear. I've got a good feeling about this one, love the different tones i'm hearing on the RUclips demo's. Thank you so much for your reply and take on it. Very helpful .🤘
I know some people are snobs, but how can you blow an extra 2 grand for a gibson after listening to this?
AS an amatuer maker, eastman guitar that I've had my hands on are closer to individual craftsmanship than Gibson guitars. From time to time, they need a little help to finish fretwork, but they have personality and signs that humans worked on them (and the eastman factory looks like people working on instruments at a relaxed pace - 'craftspeople', not unskilled workers with a dandy display here or there (like the abs binding scraper lady at gibson - she's a treat).
I've had more than 100 guitars, I've made 8 and hope to make 80 more. I think the difference in price between an es335 and something like shown here or the yamaha SA 2200 is just servicing gibson's debt and covering all of their marketing expense.
A used SA2200 yamaha is a real pearl, too.
(I've had two eastman AR910CEs - still have one of the two in natural - sold the other to a guy who has an L-5 (the one I kept is better than the one I sold. The one I sold, he said "it kills my L-5, it's not close). i.imgur.com/OAPI9jj.jpg
i.imgur.com/lcICkUY.jpg
(the average that I paid for the two 10CEs was $1500 used. They are incredible, and the workmanship is bumping up against what you'd expect from collings, but more natural and less CNC kind of vibe. The wood selection, including the top spruce, is unreal).
Because they’re too bright and the neck feels too small and the edges are not rounded of as much as on standard Gibson.
@@zwip778It takes less than half an hour to round the binding a bit (or a lot) more, if you feel it's necessary.
Plus you have two tone controls if you find it too bright. On the contrary there is nothing you can do if you want to add some brightness to the dark sound of your Gibson.
"Retired Paperclip Decomissioner" LMAO!
Great demo buddy, you did the instrument justice.
The T-185, T-186 is even hipper. ALL SOLID WOODS!
Would you prefer this, the T486 or T186 for jazz?
How has no one mentioned "Retired Paperclip Decommissioner"!?
the rain song 😃😃
GOOD GUITAR AT ANY PRICE,
I just got this guitar in left handed a month ago, and I have the same “Dude” OD pedal. I hear the same thing here as on my guitar and pedal: the OD sounds somewhat buzzy, as opposed to smooth. I am more after the smooth OD tones. I am wondering if a different pedal might have a result more to my liking, or might I need to swap out the pickups? The clean tones are outstanding in the guitar, however.
Maybe try a more balanced gain pedal with a bit less character and/or experiment with rolling of the tone? Often even rolling off high end on the guitar can help create more of a smoother overdrive sound, by emphasising gain on the high mids. You should check out the DOD looking glass and Morgan OD, they both help avoid this problem
Surgelo it’s the OD you have. Try a Free The Tone MS SOV or a Full Drive 2 and you’ lo be Pleasanton surprised…
THRILL IS GONEEEE
Fantastic demo great playing as always I love your demos you’re always extremely in-depth very detailed. I am totally blind, so I truly appreciate it when you go into the details of the design of what you’re playing as far as specifications as well as when you talk about the colors on the amps, if you wouldn’t mind When you’re doing your videos as I watch you a lot, but if you could ever talk about your signal chain a little more when you’re playing, I would love to know as you have encouraged me in buying a lot of gear lol including this guitar. Thanks. 5:32
What is that box on top of your amp? Great video !!!

@@withbrando8757 Thanks...
What a beautiful guitar.Does it have a smaller body than a es335?
thinner
@@sooparticularNope. Same thickness (1.75”) and dimensions.
smaller@@marcpost4034
It doesnt have the Gibson tone, why is that?

I bought one today . I played a ton of Gibson ES355s this guitar destroyed them all
The typicaI Great G... coming out from their ES335 is Iacking when the pick gets to hit the string. Not worth the money at aII, much too expensive.
I humbly disagree. I’ve played es 335 s for 40 years . The Eastman is absolutely incredible.
too much pedal....just needs some boost and it will sing.
Violets are blue
Roses are crimson
My name is the Eastman T59v
And I’m better than a Gibson
Thia just sound like a electric guitar. No warmth or acoustic tone like an Es Gibson.
Epiphone sounds just as good. Or even a Firefly.
I have Epiphones, even with upgraded pick ups, no one Epi compares to my T59v.
Are you joking
It's not always just sound too, guitars play and feel differently. This will obviously resonate way better than any Epiphone.
I have an Epi and an Eastman 486 with the 59v coming next week. There is no comparison with the richness, colour, complexity, sweetness and crisp punch. Not to mention the construction and fittings... man that’s a crazy thing to say. Even the 335s weep in the presence of an Eastman..
Well summarised Ray.
Great playing. The guitar needs a hog neck with rosewood fretboard. It's lacking mids, way to bright and chirpy without the mids to give it some authority.
I agree. I'd have bought one already if not for the lack of some mahogany like a real 335. I've owned a couple Eastmans they are cool guitars and I'd love one of these. But While it sounds nice, it is exactly as you described. The John Connor guy mocking you is just a troll. It's a reasonable observation.
Sure you could just boost the mids on your amp?
@@urbaniteproductions.4391 You can't add to the EQ what's not there in the first place. Boosting mids is really just cutting highs and lows, it's not filling out the EQ at all and would just sound like ass not make a fuller sound.
Don't get me wrong, this guitar doesn't sound bad. But it is a bit anemic and could sound so much better with a little natural wood warmth from some mahogany added to it, like the 335/345 it is based on.
@john mcclure But you are a braggart, how you play has absolutely zero meaning here in the discussion of woods and their affects on a guitar's natural EQ. Strange flex.
Love the player not the guitar.
NOTHING WRONG WITH THE GUITAR UNLESS YOUR DEAF
Coz you cant play like him

Overpriced Chinese crap!
@@kodiakandgrizzlybears3787 With a moniker like Kodiak and Grizzly Bears, of course you're going to say, 'Chinese crap'. Good things are only made in Murika, right? Kyeh.
@@kodiakandgrizzlybears3787 apparently you've never seen an Eastman guitar before in person. As good as Gibson Custom Shop at about a third the price
Just another wannabe ES-335.
RootsRockRebel if you buy an instrument with one eye on resale value you've already lost.
RootsRockRebel : you haven't checked resale prices lately have you....modern Gibsons aren't selling for big bucks anymore because they are pretty much shit. I own a Gibson les paul, resale price is half of what it cost. New guitar and had to replace the tuners (etune batteru rattled in the housing driving me nuts and tuning issues) and replaced the circuit board with hard wired pots (board was broken, could't get a replacement anywhere). Fret ends have yet to be dressed and the nut has to be cut down. Nut sides I have filed down so not to cut my hands when fretting open chords, guitar has grounding problems and crackles like crazy even with the new electronics...probably faulty pickup. I still like the guitar but it is NOT a good guitar. Resale value reflects these problems....
@@SRT54 whilst I'd never let resale value dictate which instruments I buy, knowing that certain instruments are regarded as well made, sound great and are highly sought after certainly makes buying them easier, especially when you're talking about a Chinese made instrument. Eastman have this status, so it's all good.
@@RootsRockRebel "chinese trash " ? Are serious, did you really listen to that demo ? I have that Eastman T59, I chose it because of the tone it gives. I tried hard Gibson ES335, not one could match the quality of this Eastman, tone, luthery and finish, despite twice the price. If you're honest musician you should try this Eastman. By the way, I also sold my Gibson LP Standard 2011, losing 20% of its value, replaced by a Tokai LS1000 with the money from that sale: that Tokai compares to a Gibson Custom Shop 59 reissue 3 times more expensive. My ears, eyes , and fingers drive my choices, not the brand nor the resale value.
@@RootsRockRebel you're just another badge snob
