Though Eastman’s naming conventions aren’t easy to follow, their commitment to making excellent instruments at excellent prices certainly is.

The AR series, Eastman’s jazz guitars, have long been regarded as some of the best Archtops for the money, and this 603 model is no different. With a solid spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides, and Seth Lover pickups, the AR603 is an amazing representation of the warm (while still being present) tone of an L5, just with a slightly thinner body.

This one is in a “used like new” condition, with the same type of marks you’d expect to see on a guitar in store. The frets have almost no wear.

Comes with the original case.
