With the Antique Varnish series , Eastman Guitars presents a range of instruments with a used look . The guitars are modeled on well-known instruments from the pre-war period and impress with their special optics and unique sound , which is in no way inferior to the historical models.
The Antique Varnish series has the right instrument for everyone: from western guitars in several body sizes to semi-hollowbody and jazz models to solidbody electric guitars, there is the right partner for every musician. The instruments impress even the most demanding ears with their soft and open sound .
The special sound characteristics are created by the finish with the eponymous Antique Varnish , a type of shellac that has been used on Eastman's violins since the beginning of the company's history. The painting process is very complex and takes longer than polyurethane paints, but the wait is worth it: the Antique Varnish finish is significantly softer and also provides a smooth finish softer sound. The thinner layer of varnish allows the wood to vibrate better and develops an open tone with the best sustain.
Each instrument has been stylishly aged by professional luthiers, none of them look exactly the same as the other. The Vintage leather-covered suitcases from the Antique Varnish series ensure the right overall picture.
The guitar manufacturer Eastman Guitars has its origins in the company Eastman Strings. Eastman Strings was founded in 1992 by Qian Ni from Beijing and originally started with the handcrafted production of high-quality violins, violas, cellos and basses. Since traditional craftsmanship and the resulting instruments are still highly valued today, the manufactory quickly expanded its range to include acoustic, semi-acoustic and fully solid guitars .
These are created with the same craftsmanship and precise workmanship as the string instruments, which definitely makes the semi-acoustic models an absolute recommendation for all jazz and blues guitarists who are looking for a new instrument . The semi-acoustic guitars are available in thinline , archtop and even signature archtop model . Depending on your preference, you can then choose between All Solid Carved, Solid Carved Top and Laminate models .
The situation is similar with the high-quality solid-body guitars in the LP style. These are also divided into three levels. A distinction is made here between guitars with Antique Varnish, Truetone Gloss and Truetone Vintage Gloss finishes , whereby the Antique Varnish finish is based on violin making and ensures a full, open and resonant sound .
Fans of the acoustic guitar group can look forward to the largest selection from Eastman Guitars .
In addition to the many different guitar shapes such as Dreadnought, Grand Auditorium, Orchestra and Jumbo or OO, Parlor, Travel and other exotic ones such as Cabaret and Gypsy Jazz , the West guitars also differ in their processing levels and finishes. The most popular here include the Traditional, AC and Antique Varnish series .
No matter which instrument you ultimately choose from the guitar manufacturer Eastman Guitars , you will receive a high-quality piece of craftsmanship that is made from fine wood and impresses with an excellent sound .
