Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: Eastman D'Ambrosio Series
I expect they will be lovely; maybe even approaching the Novos they're so obviously inspired by. But I have to wonder how many more interpretations of Strats and Teles the world really needs.

Re: Eastman D'Ambrosio Series
The neck joint will be superb. Tom Anderson do an angled version of it and once you've seen it, it's a blinding flash of the obvious. No sane person would ever choose anything else again. Think about it; the shape laterally braces the neck relative to the body and all the bolts have to do is pull it tight.

Interesting neck join. The recessed pickguard is a really nice touch, I reckon.

Re: Eastman D'Ambrosio Series
I suspect they're gonna try and undercut Novo and Fender CS. Maybe even do a loss leading thing to establish themselves as a US brand. USD$2500.

I reckon that's over thinking it a bit.

Re: Eastman D'Ambrosio Series
Maybe. It’s certainly got my attention. That neck looks nice and beefy too!
Initial reaction to the recessed pickguard was “cool”, but then I realise I won’t have anywhere to slip my picks….
And pickguard mounted jack can still GTFO….

Re: Eastman D'Ambrosio Series
I don't care for pickguard mounted jack either, not as strongly as you though. Thankfully it's not the one I'm interested in. Nor do I slip my picks under the pickguard.

Re: Eastman D'Ambrosio Series
Jeremy's right.
US$3700-$4000.
So not for us then.

Re: Eastman D'Ambrosio Series
Which is sad as I REALLY dig that one with the JM bridge and gold foils, maybe I'll find a neck and build a replica
