Guys please use same tune to the comparison! This is basic in video reviews.

That jacaranda back is to die for.

Hey guys Have enjoyed watching your videos - I am an owner of several eastman guitars and I purchased a NUX stageman ii AC80 that is great. As far as I know they are the same amp with the 50 - but mine came with the physical 2 switch pedal. I really wanted the pedal you have here the NMP-4 and I just bought it from a shop It was new in the box - but I am wondering if there is a problem. I have spent 2 hours trying to get the bluetooth to connect. Very frustratiing - can you tell me anything you might know? Do you have an AC80 there that you can try to connect the pedal up with - do you even have a pedal anymore - maybe not - this was 3 years ago. Any help would be appreciated - this is a pretty obscure item.

Great pre-NAMM opening! Thank you guys!

I'm not even an Alvarez fan..but it sounds better all around than the Martin

(((thumbsupface)))

All sound great, D18 authentic sounds best!Mighty fine picking! Would love to see you compare the Authentic d18 and d28 to the real vintage versions!

All I know is that I sure do like mine. And I’m guessing mine is the one in the video. Sounds and plays fantastic !

Nice double neck, but for that price, I’ll stick with my Alvarez-Yairi DY-87. IT’s also 45 years old & well opened up lol.

Big Heart !

I have to disagree slightly. There are some guitars where lights, custom lights and mediums sound pretty similarly in tone, the mediums are louder and harder to play and custom lights sustain more. There are some where you want mediums to add headroom or custom lights to play lightly with your fingers. Then there are some guitars where mediums just straight up sound better and have minimal effect on how hard or soft you need to play for it to sound good.

Fantastic job with this tune!

Fun to get the insider view. Thanks for bringing this to us!

Eastman is part of ESP. I'd liken them to the LTD brand. High quality stuff for a bit cheaper.

I'm a college student and I've been trying so hard to find a DMA sunburst. Anyone know where I can find a used one?

Your audio is bad,

love this

But does it have looper?

What do the liquid metal pins do

Looking forward to the high quality tone samples on all of these👍 Thank-you for asking about the Archtop Octave #hereforthemandos 👍😀👍

😂😂😂

Whatever sells guitars helps pay the bills.

I'll never understand this shit. The madolin is in the bluegrass hall of fame. That's a replica. It should cost slightly more than whatever the base instrument costs.

Less talking, more playing!!!

The brother on the bass doesn’t get enough credit. He really does some nice runs and double stops Great stuff guys sounds awesome

These Martins are outclassed by Yamaha in this price range!

The Atkin though.. it sounds different than the rest, in an excellent way!

i accidntally bookmarked this short instead of youtube so for like the past year, everytime i boot up youtube i hear john say "hey what up?"

They all sound good. The Authentic is louder for sure! But, I prefer the tone of the Modern Deluxe. I've said for a while that the Modern Deluxe line is the best thing Martin has going. I love mine.

The police have informed me that was not a legal place to park.

Can we see the back of the dread headstock?

Did he say a replica 40,000 he lost his mind for that ticket might as well make an adventure out of tracking down the real one

Is the Standard short scale? 🤞

What is the model number and price of the sunburst parlor with a pickup? It was not mentioned. When will this (E1P Deluxe?) and the E1P be available to the dealers?

Nice D-20 with the large sound hole

Thank you for this. Beautiful playing.

I always thought the sound port was an easy way to get your pick out of the body when it falls in 😂

You guys always seem to throw in a chord that makes my day. Thanks for the "absolutely" !

I only consider Eastman when it comes to Arch top Guitars. Otherwise I have no particular preference for them. I won't ever spend more then $700.00 for any Guitar. That's quality enough me. I'm no purist.

I know that you will delete this but I am truly sad for my friends in what use to be the USA. In Canada we will keep making music without our US friends. From the history of Banana Republics, "Politically, they were ruled by a corrupt authoritarian government beholden to the interests of international companies and a small circle of wealthy elite." Banana Republic USA is official.

What they don’t tell you is any guitar player would prefer to have a guitar already played in because it will sound better after a year

This is some fine duet picking. As soon as you think you know the depth of Johnny chapmans talent . Guess what,you go back through the archives and find perfect example like this. John is a sleeper. Give him a chance to deliver the goods ,and boy oh boy he can pick the shine off of a guitar.

914CE would do it for me.

wow. wow. wow. this is ONE LEGIT launch .. .

They all sound the same, and those treble strings are nasty, I had a D28 and that E and B strings sounded just like that, hated it. $7000.00 is just not worth it you could buy 3 high end Yamahas for that, and sound better.

Those Touchstone models legit!
