Eastman ER-3 El Rey Classic Electric Guitar

What they say

The first archtops were made to accompany orchestras and provide a chunking rhythm that was felt more than heard.  By those standards what our hollow bodies do today is quite different. Our vision for the archtop is to maintain traditional build methods while providing a new sound and image that appeals to players of multiple musical disciplines. 

Otto D'Ambrosio: "Eastman builds guitars like I build guitars. We create instruments with our hands. I was always attracted to the craftsmanship of small shops and thought it was impossible to manage a big production shop on a small studio model. Eastman proved me wrong."
