Have to wait for the new (to me) Eastman arrives. I always worry about the shipping but have been lucky so far!! I will let you all know what I think once it arrives.

The Eastman should be awesome and you can be sure I will get back to everyone with first impressions. I can't wait!!

I'm sure you will enjoy it. Love to see some pictures and a review later. Congrats!

You didn't give it away already did you, Ron? A forumite came through and bought it I hope?? On your comment to Sixiron, I would definitely like to hear the PSD-21/AC-720 tonal contrasts, especially this modified one.

"My 12 year old son won $100 flatpicking at a local fiddler's convention last year. He is also learning mandolin and violin. Is this deserving enough for you to send me... I mean him the AC720?"

It just might be, but then you'd want to sell your Stanford.

Btw, you're so right about the treadmill/time relationship!

I have seen folks pay $700-$800 in the last month for guitars
that are not HALF the instrument this is. So. . . . . .

I am going to leave it listed, but I am now looking for that
deserving youngster.

WOW - that's a screaming deal Ron. Wish I had some spare $$. I think things are really tight right now for most folks, and even for those that it isn't they are playing it pretty close to the chest. Good luck w/ the sale.

I really need to sell this guitar, so $675.00 SHIPPED to zone 1-3.
Add $25.00 for west coast shipping.

THIS IS A GREAT PRICE!!

Someone is going to get the buy of a lifetime.

God! Wish it wasn't a dread Ron or I'd be all over it.

I tried playing a dread again this last weekend and they just don't fit me well.

With all the dread players here, someone should scoop this up.

Good Luck

Sorry to hear that you have to sell your beloved Eastman, Ron. I know how much you have raved about that guitar and how highly you speak of it. Knowing the quality of your musicianship, I highly respect your judgment.

I wish you the best. I hope your new custom meets or exceeds your expectations.

OK, guys, my Eastman AC720 is now for sale! It is one of the best guitars
I have ever owned. Period! My Randy Wood custom will be ready next week,
so I have to raise the money quickly. The Eastman has been worked over &
set-up by Jim Grainger AND Randy Wood, and is, simply put, a superb guitar.
It has a K&K PWM installed and comes in the OHSC. It just SINGS and plays
very smoothly, though I have it set up for fingerstyle. I will accept your check,
if you have been around here for a while, and you give me an extra few days
to clear it, but otherwise I will only accept payment via a USPS money order.

The price is $825.00 including shipping, and it is not for sale outside the USA,
but just as with the Martin D-35, you may pick it up here in Tybee Island, &
spend the weekend with us, if you pay for the guitar in cash. The custom work
was expensive, and the K&K was over $200.00, so the above price is a steal....
