Description
With its sleek single-cut body, rich-sounding Lollar humbuckers, and striking Antique Varnish finish, the Eastman SB59V has the look, sound, and feel of a well-worn vintage classic. This guitar is ideal for musicians who love timeless designs but still want something new, innovative, and exciting. And thanks to its phenomenal tone, this axe sounds great for rock, pop, blues, alternative, and everything in between.
The SB59V projects a dark, midsy growl with remarkable articulation, courtesy of its one-piece mahogany body and visually stunning flame maple top. Its naturally warm, rich voice is complemented by its dual Lollar Imperial humbuckers, which churn out '50s P.A.F. tones like you wouldn't believe. Inspired by vintage pickups, the Imperial humbuckers have that same classic sound but with an improved frequency balance and a slightly boosted output.
If you're the type of guitarist who loves shredding blues-rock solos and fast pentatonic fills, you'll have a great time riffing on the SB59V. From its 12"-radius ebony fingerboard to its comfortable one-piece mahogany neck and 22 medium jumbo frets, this guitar plays with a nice, quick feel. Additionally, its Gotoh Relic Series tuners and bridge have a slick old-school appeal and offer optimal tuning stability and intonation.
But that's not all you get with the Eastman SB59V. This gorgeous guitar also features Orange Drop capacitors, CTS 500K Audio Taper pots, and ships in a premium hardshell case.
For vintage guitar enthusiasts, single-cut lovers, and players seeking a top-shelf guitar with plenty of attitude, the Eastman SB59V is exactly what you're looking for.
