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.

If I had a dream about arriving at the Pearly Gates and being handed a perfect Lester, that P90 Custom is what it would look like!

That guitar gives me that 'oh lordy' feeling in my stomach. That momentary clench of desire and admiration. Love that thing. Cool as ....

Re: Much Eastman love....
I couldn't really fault the 335-style Eastman I tried. The pickguard maybe. It was poorly finished and a poor fit. No idea how they hold-up long-term. When we see PRS factory tours where the necks take weeks to make because of the emphasis on repeatedly letting the wood settle in order to ensure stability, you have to wonder about other manufacturers' efforts. It's not something you can see in the finished product. Just something you experience through use.

Re: Much Eastman love....
They’re quite smart in a way since they always change the specs a little bit (ebony board, maple neck etc) to avoid a direct head-on with the respective Gibson models. But a Gibson is a Gibson.
Anyway mine’s getting delivered tomorrow, will report back.

I'll play. Here's mine. An AR605, hand carved. Pics courtesy of Mr Oleg's for sale post. Guitar is far too good for my talent (or lack of) , but I don't care!!
