Eastman 'Uptown Professional' Archtop Guitars
“Eastman is
positioned to storm the archtop world with a
product so far exceeding the current accepted notion of
price/quality ratio that it is likely to cause bedlam in the
archtop manufacturers world.”
(Just Jazz Guitar magazine)
The luthiers at Eastman Strings, famous for building
some of the most highly regarded violins and cellos of the late
20th century, have now turned their attention and time honoured
skills towards the handcrafting of archtop guitars. If you are searching
for unequaled tonal brilliance, ease of playing and beautiful woodcraft
you will find all these things and more in an Eastman Guitar!

Eastman Uptown professional archtop guitars are each carved entirely by hand. The solid maple back and sides and solid aged spruce top are complimented by a 3-piece maple neck with a solid ebony fingerboard. All Eastman guitars feature X-style bracing. Heavy-duty tuners, a classically designed tailpiece, and a J.W. Eastman fiberglass case all come standard.
Available in several finishes.

John Pisano Signature Guitar
World renowned jazz guitarist John Pisano personally designed his signature model from top to bottom, with all the features he ever
wanted in a guitar. Crafted entirely by hand, it features the finest available wood and fittings. John collaborated with noted pickup designer Kent Armstrong to design a humbucking pickup that covers the complete tonal spectrum, and makes this guitar sound as good plugged in as it does acoustically. Available in our Blonde or Sunburst finish.
The John Pisano Signature archtop guitar features a 16” body
constructed from highly flamed maple and select spruce. Body
depth is a very comfortable 2 3/4”. The 3-piece maple neck
is carved to John’s demanding specifications. The unique
headstock, pickguard, volume, tone controls, and adjustable
tension tailpiece are constructed of ebony, highlighted with
highly figured exotic woods. The wood binding, gold plated
Schaller tuners with ebony buttons, and adjustable ebony bridge
complete the distinctive package.
