This used Eastman T386 Thinline is in Very Good condition and a whole lot of guitar for the money. Top to bottom, from build to pickups, it's firing on all cylinders. Here with a Maple laminate body with center block, it's feedback-resistant, and its gorgeous transparent red lacquer finish is an excellent reminder of Eastman's esteemed attention to detail. Weighing in at 8 lbs, 5 oz, it's loaded with two Kent Armstrong humbuckers, as well as a Gotoh bridge with 2 3/32" spacing.
Surprisingly versatile, you aren't limited to just jazz when playing this baby. Blues, country, and rock are more than appropriate to dish out - and it all sounds great, be it plugged in or unplugged. Ivoroid binding, Rosewood fretboard, and nickel silver frets round out the appointments on this Eastman T386 Thinline. It does have a few playwear marks, most noticeably on its sides and headstock, but it plays beautifully, and is at a great price - it comes with its original hardshell case, too.
