The Eastman SB59 V reflects the classic late 1950s design for a single cutaway, Flamed Maple on Mahogany solidbody with humbucking pickups. While it follows the formula, it’s not a precise copy and Eastman uses their own designs. As a ‘Vintage’ style model, this guitar has undergone an treatment process to simulate the wear of decades of use – except for fretwear.
Starting with the basics, the Eastman SB59 V uses a Mahogany slab body with a carved, bookmatched Flame Maple cap. A Mahogany with a long mortise and tenon joint carries a bound Ebony fingerboard. Hardware is top quality, starting with Gotoh vintage Kluson style tuners, nickel plated Gotoh adjustable bridge and stop tailpiece. The pickups are Lollar Custom Aged/Wound Imperial Humbuckers, wired through a Switchcraft 3-way switch, plus CTS 500K Audio Taper pots for individual volume and tone controls with Sprague Orange Drop Capacitors. The wiring is very cleanly done.
The Eastman SB59 V here carries the Antique Varnish Amber finish.
This guitar is sold with the original Eastman hard shell case.
