Hi everyone, I’m listing for sale an Eastman 805E, one of the less common non-cutaway models, in blonde.
It’s seen use, very good condition, with wear in the form of bumps and scratches here and there. The seam along the fingerboard and neck can be felt, and there is no separation but a line is visible along certain parts where I suppose finish has sunk. No structural issues to note though, it is a solid joint. It has a bit of the typical hump in the board where it meets the body, but there is no issue with it in playability, the string height is a standard and comfortable 6/64”-4/64”. Very light fret wear in lower positions higher strings. Also the pickup seems to get in the way on the low E string past fret 18. Functionally I have not found it to be an issue really given the location, but bears mention. All is correctable if desired and I think nothing that would be surprising for a guitar this age.
Sold
Thanks for looking.

Man!! That's a whole lotta guitar for a grand and a bit! Beautiful, all solid and hand-carved goodness.
I like that case too. I have three 16" archtops, and when any one of them goes out the house it's in that. A very comfortable ride. I guess I kinda have this niche covered! GLWTS as we say around here.
