I heard rumor "Gordon" is no longer with Eastman and is now affiliated with Century Strings

Looks like a 25" scale and "carved" arched top and back..

    It appears to be true. Gordon and Eastman Strings definitely parted company. There was a rumour that he was hooking up with a company importing Selmer-style guitars from China, which would make sense, given his association with Eastman.

    Here's a quote from http://www.jazzmando.com/new/

    "Former Eastman guitar and mandolin pioneer Gordon Roberts has introduced the world to a whole new level of approachability in premium sound and playability with this rising-star company, Century Strings."
    Benny

    "It's a great feeling to be dealing with material which is better than yourself, that you know you can never live up to."
    -- Orson Welles
