That P90 model was freakin' gorgeous! And sounded better to me...
Well, how is it that we deserve this? Back-to-back videos from Richard! Total Treat! Best guitar reviewer on YT!👍🎸✌😎
Sounds great
I prefer the lower wind P90's - lovely guitars!
Nice guitars and your performance on the track is badass !! My opinion is they should offer a model with a humbucker in the bridge and a P90 in the neck...
Great guitars this really seals the deal for me when it comes to Eastman. But really the player here is the one that deserves the glory not the brand. Excellent playing thank you
WOW
The narration is straight out of a Steven Spielberg movie 🙏🍿🎥
The P90's sound much more dynamic. But that is because P90's are the best pickups ever 😊
The P90 version is a killer.
P90 version for me thanks.
i like how they look but i don't really like how quick and sudden chords die off with the humbucker version. Don't know if that's the same with the P-90's version
Very beautiful gtr playing as ever, awesome indeed! I wonder why they chose the name Juliet for these? I guess the P90s one might be the more versatile perhaps, you can always fatten up the pu sound, but the humbuckers perhaps don't give quite such a pallette of clean tones.. 👍🌟
It’s because it looks similar to their Romeo model. Now why they called it Romeo, I don’t know lol
P90s fo sho
Thanks for a great quick overview! Both lovely guitars - Eastman are giving the 'big boys' a helluva run for their money, and not just solid bodies . . . they have been making orchestral instruments for some time - it's clear that the luthiers are bringing that experience to the line and someone smart figured Gotoh, Bare Knuckles, Lollar et al are offering the best hardware so, why not? I have my eye on the SB59/v and possibly the P90 Juliet next time I head out to Japan or Korea (Hong Kong agent doesn't stock the solid bodies, sadly - don't ask me why!)
Please show the back!!! Is the neck bolt-on?
You MIGHT need glasses! @ the 5:00 min mark you can clearly see it is a SET neck design! The Romeo was a set neck, so the Juliet would be also!
They’re set neck. Agree that he should have mentioned or shown it when he was doing the spec run-down but you can tell even when viewed from the front or in profile that it’s a set neck construction from the continuous finish in the neck to body join area.
Set neck
@@davidburke2132 So you saw WHAT I also saw! SHOULD have gone to Spec Savers!
@@Alanoffer I told him that already!
One of those guitars that I can’t decide if it looks naff or cool 🧐
In a perfect universe maybe, but all guitar manufacturers, even back in 50’s we’re building on other peoples designs. The guitar itself wasn’t designed by Fender or Gibson… Please, that’s a hollow argument. If anything, Eastman is just doing what Gibson used to do; have actual people build the whole guitar. To me, that’s what they have in common with Gibson… The hand varnished ones remind me more of old Gibsons I’ve owned than actual newer Gibsons!
Like always. I prefer humbuckers for rhythm and p90's for lead.
Looks nice, but I'd have a hard time dropping £1,859 for a guitar made in China. Great playing as always.
If these guitars were made in the US or Great Britain, they would cost many times more than Eastman's asking prices. There are made to a price point, contract manufactured Chinese guitars and then there are Eastmans (the same thing can be said about Wang's hand-wired line of amps versus everything on a PCB, including power tube sockets, Chinese contract manufactured amps). Eastman got their start by building handmade orchestral instruments. They are expert luthiers, not just guitar builders. Eastman moved into guitars first by making acoustic and archtop guitars that were well-received by guitarists. The solid-body instruments came later. These guitars are so well made for what they cost that I am trading my Gibson Custom R7 Goldtop for an Eastman SB56/n-GD and an Eastman Juliet P-90. I already own an Eastman T486, which is nicer than any ES-335 I have played, and then there is the Eastman SB55DC/v that I recently acquired after waiting for almost two years. That thing is a solid rock machine that fixes all of the design issues I have with the Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Jr DC at a third of the price. Trust me, Gibson has not always been known for quality (it took PRS raising the bar on quality to get Gibson to start to pay attention again). My first real electric guitar was a 1976 Les Paul Custom that I purchased new with the help of my parents in 1977. That thing was a 12lb tone dog.
they are actualy hand made as estman are violin and chello makers no cnc used thats not heard of at a guitar of this price even fender coustom shop are cnc. not that a good cad and cnc is a bad thing just hand made is well hand mad end of story i7ej
not metal, not cool, there will never be an EMG version,right? 😂🤡
I want to love these guitars but they sound pretty bland to me. Not a great deal of character in either model.
They both sound anemic, and it seems like there's not much sustain either.
Eastman guitars are too expensive for a cheap-labour guitar - a Godin is far better and less expensive.
Who says they’re cheap labor? They’re totally hand made with superb attention to fit and finish. Sure, labor is cheaper in China, but these are very skilled laborers.
How ignorant
You don't know what you are talking about. They aren't offshores - Eastman makes beautiful instruments, guitars included.
@@esdel1955 - Labor at this level of skills is not really cheap anymore in China. They have very good luthiers indeed.
And they are true luthiers, not just guitar builders. Eastman got its start in luthiery by building orchestral stringed instruments. They then started to build acoustic guitars, mandolins, and archtops before moving into solid-body guitars. Eastman is not a contract manufacturing shop like all of the other Chinese makers who build made to a price point instruments for the big labels.
After making copy cat guitars from great American originals for years, they finally decided to go with an own design. Not sure if this is worth to acknowledge. If at all, they should have made it the other way round and earn their own merits first. For me they are a simple marketing machine going piggyback on the success and hard work over decades of others. Uninspiring.
That changes once you play one. I owned a Thinline and it was built better than any Gibson on its price range or higher. Beautiful guitars.
They literally hand make guitars like the old fashioned way, best components and attention to detail used. best guitars your money can buy. For cheaper than a standard gibson, you get a custom shop level guitar.
Success is something Big Brands should gain daily. If you win Wimbledon once that's don't make you the best player forever.
@@gianlucab.9837 I am not talking about making things better. Mine is about copying on the back of cheap labour. And I bet their margins are even higher than the ones of the manufacturers of the originals.
