This Beauty was built for the 2012 NAMM show bye the Yun Zhi Cats right after they left Eastman guitars...Serial number is 0026! Just a sweet sweet ride...This guitar was purchased by a well know player who fell in love with her at Namm but he preceded to never play her! He eventually had a Peche pickup custom fitted with Brazilian Rosewood to create a perfect fit on this guitar..The Burst is as good as any I have ever scene...All solid woods hand carved with a highly arched Adirondack Top and Highly Flamed and arched maple back and sides...Boutique quality across the board on this guitar...Evo gold frets and wide maple binding everywhere...A Somewhat beefy D neck with a 1.75 nut width and If this had another name on the Headstock we're talking 3-4k for sure...She's plenty loud enough to be played acoustically at a jam or rehearsal and the Peche sounds really nice...The only marks or imperfections are from the Peche...The Peche and the chord are of course included and she is 16 inches wide at her widest spot and 3 3/8's deep not including the Arched top and back areas...

Looks a lot like an oval-hole version of my Eastman 805CE. I take it to have a carved rather than bent top/back, yes?
Yes, it's all solid wood hand carved and these guys were at Eastman...I've played many Eastman's and this guitar is built to a higher level
I feel like a video demo is in order :D
For anyone who's looking, it all depends on how it sounds, of course!
Video!
