Eastman AR372ce-BD 'Blonde' Archtop Preowned 2020

Eastman’s AR372CE archtop dives deep into the majestic waters of pinnacle ‘50s archtop engineering. A true hollowbody of 100% maple, save for its ebony fingerboard, the AR372CE archtop boasts a lively and projective presence for the utmost clarity in expression. At both the bridge and neck positions, you’ll find a set of stellar Kent Armstrong humbuckers standing by to flaunt both smooth jazz tones and rock-capable power alike. Vets and advancing players will love the feel of Eastman’s Traditional Even “C” neck profile, enabling all players to get a comfortable hold for stress-free playability in any musical setting. To boot, its truly classic design elements like a Florentine cutaway, trapeze tailpiece, amber top hats, Pingwell tuners, and split parallelogram fingerboard inlays present an undeniably awesome elegance that’s instantly recognizable from the days of old. For vintage enthusiasts and true connoisseurs of tone alike, the AR372CE nails every archtop element!

This 2020-built model is in wonderful condition, with minimal playwear and a gorgeous glossy natural finish. Currently set up with flatwound strings, it's got all the classic warm, thick jazz tones you'd expect but can just as easily switch to raucous rock and roll thanks to the original Kent Armstrong pickups. A gorgeous, highly-specced archtop guitar! Include original hardshell case.
