To the Chinese craftpersons who build these guitars: Salute, well done, and thank you.

[@akfisher7138]

I am a master cabinet maker, in the UK, and know several luthiers as we all share a passion for wood and tools. This is what real workshops look like. They smell great too, of wood...A great workshop is one with light and a a bonus if you have space too. Also one where you have your own bench. Would love to visit this place.

[@buddyalbert5808]

It’s like these Eastman instruments are being “born” right before my eyes. I just bought a E10SS and hands down the craftsmanship is second to none. I am a full time professional musician for over 25 years and feel like a kid on Christmas Morning when I play my Eastman. Thank you!

[@enforcer41]

I've had 3 Eastman guitars and can attest to the craftmanship compared my E20p with a collings parlour about 7 years ago and they were near identical in every way including tone. The only 2 areas where the Collings came out on top was price and the tuners. So I returned the Collings for a refund. I've got my 4th on order now an ac422ce-ae and can't wait.

[@DoctorMcFarlandStudios]

Just got my first Eastman and I am so proud to play their instruments.

[@FolkSongsEtAl]

Still waiting on mine - hopefully in the next few days I'll get a nice t486 delivered. Took me ages to find one in Australia - they're in high demand over here.

[@masterhorax]

I own several guitars....I have 3 acoustics though. A Taylor GC3, an Epiphone Masterbilt AJ500RENS, and an Eastman AC420. Guess which one plays the best and has the best sound? My Eastman! Guess which one cost the least? The Eastman! Guess what I'm buying next? An Eastman!

Thank you to the craftsmen and women who make this outstanding instruments . You are amazing .

[@jangle_key]

For about 15 years, I only owned one acoustic guitar (Martin DXME), which I eventually sold because I wanted something a bit smaller and more fingerstyle-oriented. After some extensive shopping (and an excellent offer on reverb) I eventually pulled the trigger on a used Eastman AC308CE-LTD. My Eastman is simply one of the finest instruments I’ve ever played, and I don’t see myself ever getting rid of it. I’d love to see the factory myself someday, and at the very least I’d love to play any Eastman I can get my hands on! Love & respect to the workers who make these phenomenal instruments.

[@BreadLightPray_EWFMgtr]

☑️ right on❗️the specs on this model are incredible and the woods gorgeous , so I bought the AC308CE LTD my first Eastman acoustic , the tone ridiculous good for the price ; I now own five of their acoustics within a few month's time , and frankly will sell off many of my over expensive domestic builds ‼️🤔🥸🤓😜🤑

[@andersonlong7709]

Handmade guitars vs, CNC mass produced guitars. It's one reason Eastman's sound, play and look exponentially better than anything costing 2-3 times as much. I own a SB/59 Classic Varnish and have yet to own (have owned 3) or play a custom shop Gibson Les Paul that compares, which makes me sad as I have loved my Gibson's. But this video also shows how Gibson's used to be made-- by hand. But no more. They simply do not compare to the Eastman's.

Where can you buy these Eastman Guitars? I seem to be hitting a road block trying to find them....

[@Lovesalluneed]

[@rossgraf2649]

To those who commented on the seemingly poor work conditions in the Eastman factory and alluded to slave labor. I have visited many American factories where the conditions are much, much worse than seen in this video. Who gives a shit what the walls look like. And look at all the windows in the Eastman factory! You won't find many American factories with windows in them. (Even in the front offices). Go to 2:29 in the video and take a look at the broad smile of that factory worker. That doesn't look much like the attitude of a slave. Regarding their pay scale, I would be willing to bet that they are compensated pretty well according to Chinese standards or they would work somewhere else. Each worker at the Eastman factory is mentored by expert craftsmen and the the high level of craftsmanship in their products is absolutely amazing. If you have ever seen, held and/or played an Eastman you know what I mean. Today, the instrument and bow making workshops at Eastman operate in precisely the same manner as late 19th century European workshops. They have virtually no power tools aside from the band saws used to cut out the necks and the outlines of the tops and backs of instruments. Chisels, knives, gouges, and scrapers, in the hands of outstandingly gifted craftspeople, are the primary tools used to create these modern instruments and bows, using methods centuries old. Thanks to Eastman, string players today have advantages unknown to earlier generations: quality Cellos, Violas, Guitars & Bows, available world-wide at affordable prices. Just price out a custom guitar handmade by a Luthier and the cost will run into the thousands of dollars. Made precisely like the guitars in this video I might add. Kudo's to Qian Ni founder of Eastman and his vision to keep tradition and quality alive.

[@timhanson8556]

i bought the "E10SS" over a Gibson J-45 in an actual "blindfold competition"... they are just amazing guitars.... my next Eastman will be a "thinline", i already have a true 1968 - 335, but i am just so impressed with the handcrafting these guys are doing, and the way the instruments come alive in your hands.... they are really quite special guitars. (and i own 17 at the moment.. most Gibbys, old Epiphones, Fenders, etc)

+Tim Hanson Very cool. I am going on 17 myself. Lol. I really can't wait to try an Eastman. I'm also going to check out a Blueridge BR180 and a PRS SE Angelus but I am really leaning towards either the Eastman AC420ce or AC422ce. Their handcrafting is very impressive no doubt.

[@SubCultureMEDIAHilbert]

Blueridge is good too ... but I have a feeling Eastman will hold up better, I've seen many a Blueridge in forums where people talk about the action raising do to the top lifting a hair in convex fashion just behind the bridge (over time) from string tension.

New workbenches, decorate the place, and buy some vacuum cleaners....PLEASE!! These fine people deserve better than what we can see in this video.

[@michaelwebster8389]

@@osamabinladen824 It might have changed a bit now, but they were definitely having big trouble keeping up with demand for a while there, and it's just economics that the prices go up if demand is higher than supply. I think they've gone up probably around 10-20% over the last year or two, so that's not a big rise given general inflation, and they must have sorted out how to produce more instruments, because they seem to be a little easier to find at the moment.

[@husseinshafie]

I’ve recently purchased my first Eastman acoustic guitar: an AC322. I also have a Crafter (made in Korea), a Breedlove (made in Korea), a Taylor (made in Mexico). My next guitar will almost certainly be an Eastman too because these guitars are truly excellent for a very reasonable price. However, watching this video was not reassuring at all: the Eastman luthiers seem to work very very quickly. Too quickly?

[@ViaticalTree]

Here’s a guess. Maybe since there don’t seem to be individual luthiers who do every step from start to finish, each worker becomes very well practiced, efficient, and quick at their step. The build quality is very impressive on mine. You don’t hear of many quality issues, though no company is perfect.

You will not be disappointed I know a guy who owned a couple of high dollar Santa Cruz guitars and sold them and kept his Eastman . They cost a third of the price as big brand American guitars and let’s not forget that’s what most people are after is brand status. I personally don’t own any loyalty to a company and why would I?

[@FolkSongsEtAl]

I was trying to get an e10p - just couldn't track one down, so ended up spending twice as much for a Martin O-18. It'll be a great guitar, but it's a shame how hard it's becoming to get the Eastman's as they get more popular.

[@andrewkim6037]

So, where are these guitars made?

[@aceglass2577]

China.... I know that many people hesitate at that, but here's my take on this particular Chinese company: This is a family of woodcarvers that dates back many years. The reason I mention that is because it seems to me that the main objection to "Chinese Made" is due to the fact that many American companies have pulled their manufacturing out of the United States and set up shop in China for the express purpose of maximizing profits oftentimes resulting in a lesser quality product, hence giving the "Chinese Made" label a bad name This is not the case with Eastman. Their story is quite different and they are definitely NOT in that classification. They are truly a Chinese company simply making the best product that they know how, and they do not seem to be driven by the corporate model of lower quality and higher profit. Through trial and error they have steadily improved their product, having started out as classical instrument company, and then expanding to other instruments such as guitars. There has been, I believe, a steady and sincere attempt at achieving a loftier goal of making the best that they can. I think the results speak for themselves.

[@SubCultureMEDIAHilbert]

So, I went to the Guitar Shop the other day down here in Costa Rica and Played a 3k$ Gibby Hummingbird and a few different 900$-range Taylors and a couple of the 1200-1800$ Martins & Taylors. My Favorite Guitar in the Shop was a 700$ Eastman. Knew nothing about the brand, just loved the way it felt and played. I was actually a little upset when I looked in and saw that it was made in China ... because Chinese guitars SHOULD NOT be that much better than American guitars (price-point-wise). I was seriously impressed with their playability.

[@30smsuperstrat]

Are Eastman grand Auditorium guitars bolt on or glued in necks

[@chronicdeist]

I know the traditional series OM's are dovetail and glued in. I don't know about the PCH series, but I am betting they are also glued in. I can also say that owning both Eastman and Martin Guitars, the Eastman fit and finish is absolutely right on par with one of my Martin's and better than the other. The tone of my Eastman is also amazing. Not necessarily the same as Martin, but every bit as rich and pleasing.

[@baronvonchickenpants6564]

All very romantic, but CNC was designed for a reason, how will they keep up with demand, are the woods responsibly sourced? Someone said they don't have a factory they have a workshop what's the difference? I love beautiful craftsmanship and I hope they do well but something has to give here,

[@vKarl71]

It kills me to see a $3500 Martin that has "Boltaron" binding - and those boring rosettes. Why should such a fine guitar look so boring? Eastmans that cost 1/3 of that have beautiful wood bindings. Martins are, for the most part, great sounding guitars - but Boltaron? Really?

Why are these guitars not more known? You can hardly find any information on the company. Their guitars sound better than any Martin or Taylor I've tried. Though the build quality isn't quite up there , their sound equals that of some Larrivees and Matons I've tested. Amazing for the price!

Eastman has become the equivalent of Japanese and top Korean luthiers . Crafters is in China , Their shops are just automated and they price their stuff higher than Eastman . but they don't hand voice and radius the tops like Eastman ... In fact I dont think Crafters has a single luthier in the factory . Just machine operators and production line people taught to do an operation that they have no idea what its about.

[@DDLAN]

I bought an eastman t185 some monthes ago. It's à second hand that was actually built in 2006. Equiped with classic gibson humbucker, I have to recognize it sounds quite good for the price I paid but mostly it weights no more than à feather wich is à real relief for my back pain. Now, having discovered through this vidéo the working conditions under wich these eastman guitars are handcrafted, I feel à bit ashamed to enjoy this guitar.

[@BulldoggerJK]

I’d love to see a live factory tour hosted by someone. All I can find is these promotional type videos. Makes me question what’s really going on there. There are so many instruments stacked on racks in some of these videos, there is no way these few people at benches are making them all. This video doesn’t show all the instruments Eastman has stacked up. I bet they have more neck blanks stacked up than all the American companies combined. They do orchestra and band instruments too. Dealers that sell a ton of these should have access but it seems none of them do. The closest I’ve seen is a distribution center in CA called a factory.

[@kft590]

I wonder how much these Chinese Luthier's get paid an hour? Do they make all of their guitars in China? They seem to be reasonably talented but I would guess that they only make a fraction of what they would get paid here.

[@ManchurianCounterweight]

much respect to the Chinese luthiers who made my Eastman. It's ridiculously good.

[@jerryallen2100]

I'm old (68), so I've had to learn not to be critical of some instruments because of where they're made. 5 years ago, I would have NEVER looked twice at anything made in China. However, if you're reading this right now, your device is made in China or maybe Korea. As is almost everything electronic. If you put a blindfold on and play not knowing what you're playing or it's history, chances are you'll pick the Eastman. I have the only Marshall amp (I think) that was made in China, the JMD 100, EL34's and a Swedish company's Preamp. It only models other Marshalls, and it sounds as good as any other Marshall, at least to me. I'd much rather avoid buying something made in Korea. There's something deeply offensive about people that eat dogs. Anyway, these guitars are extremely competitive, and probably better than most Gibsons.
