Eastman Guitars Eastman T484 Goldburst

In the Thinline model collection, alongside the various 335-style guitars, we find a 39-style guitar from Eastman. The T484 is a hollow body with a center block, but significantly smaller than its sibling, the T486, which has nearly identical specifications. Due to its size, the T484 is comfortable and slightly lighter, but it also has a different sound. The tonal difference compared to the T486 can be described as sharper and more direct. The body of the T484 is simply more solid than that of the T486. It is ideal for a rock guitarist who needs to cut through the mix, but it is also creamy enough for blues or jazz guitarists on the neck pickup. Truly a very versatile guitar. The T484 features a laminated maple body, a maple neck with an ebony fingerboard, and Seymour Duncan Jazz and 59 humbuckers. The specifications are obvious according to traditional recipes, but the details include beautifully flamed maple on the top and ivory binding around the neck, body, and F-holes. Unlike the T486, there are no block inlays, but rather dot position markers. For optimal wood resonance, the T484 is finished with a real tone finish using a very thin, acoustic transparent lacquer based on polyurethane, developed by the prestigious Bourgeois guitars. This guitar comes with the luxurious original Eastman hard case and the associated documents.
