Eastman semi-hollow guitar with vintage character
The Eastman T59/V-SB is a thinline semi-hollow guitar with a 16" body made from deluxe flamed maple laminate in Antique Varnish Sunburst. That combination gives this semi-acoustic electric guitar a pronounced vintage look, while the construction is aimed at balanced resonance and immediate playability. The two hand-wound Lollar Custom Wound Imperial Humbuckers add a warm, dynamic tone with vintage character and modern clarity.
That makes the Eastman T59/V-SB a good match for styles such as jazz, blues and rock, both on stage and in the studio. If you are looking for a semi-hollow electric guitar with a classic look and a versatile voice, this is a highly refined version.
Construction, neck and playing feel of the T59/V-SB
The 16" thinline body with a depth of 1 3/4" keeps the instrument comfortable in your hands. The maple neck with Traditional Even "C" profile feels familiar right away, while the ebony fingerboard with 12" radius and 22 medium jumbo Jescar frets gives you room for smooth, accurate playing. With a 24.75" scale length, a 1.72" bone nut and a set action of 3/32" on the bass side and 2/32" on the treble side, this guitar is ready to play straight away.
At Magna Music, instruments that benefit from proper setup can also be supported with advice from musicians and service from the in-house workshop.
High-grade parts and complete finish
Under the knobs and covers, the Eastman uses 500K AudioTaper pots, 0.022μF capacitors, Gavitt braided wiring, a Switchcraft 3-way switch and a Switchcraft L11 output jack. This gives you a reliable electronic foundation with a rich tonal range. The pickup height is set to 3/32" on both sides.
The hardware is chosen with equal care: Gotoh GE104B Relic bridge, GE101A tailpiece, SD90 tuners and EP-A1 strap pegs in relic nickel. Ivoroid binding around the headstock, neck and body, pearl split-block inlays, black pickup frames and gold bell knobs complete the look. The included hardshell case is a practical addition for transport and protection.
