Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and he'll spend thousands on fishing equipment he'll use for a bit, then get bored and move onto something else.

Re: Much Eastman love....
Have had GAS for a semi for a while now, The T386 is on my radar along with a few others, seems like such a lot of quality guitar at an amazing price point

But not sure whether it's worth holding out so I can save a bit more a get a higher spec'd model. Thoughts?

Same, it sure looks lovely! I prefer block inlays and gold hardware... don't know whether not having that would bother me or not

My T486 got here yesterday. Was surprised by how much gain I can throw at it before it gets out of control. Wondering how it'd handle higher output pickups, I have a spare BKP Ragnarok lol.
Amps:
Soldano SLO100 x2 | Wizard MC1 & MC2 | Diezel Herbert
Fryette Pittbull CL | Marshall 2203KK | Krank Rev 50 | Mesa Mark 2A
