SOLD: Eastman E1SS Classic Finish Limited Edition

AmigoAmigo Frets: 119
edited March 2021 in Acoustics £
I realised that I did not play my Eastman E1SS-CLA-LTD in a long while, and the reason was the neck width. For my fingers and hand and my playing style—or what I try to play, rather—which is finger-picking and in the future jazz, the neck is just too narrow. So sadly, it needs to go. It has been thoroughly set up by my luthier, and it has a fresh set of D'Addario Phosphor Bronze Lights. I also asked the luthier to add a strap button on the back of the neck heel, as per the Eastman recommendation.

Needless to say that it is a lovely guitar, and sounds beautifully, and I am really annoyed with myself for not having thinner fingers, but there you go. Anyone interested in it, before it goes on Ebay? I cannot buy another wider-neck guitar without letting this one go.  I will also throw in a couple of string sets and a guitar tuner.

    Thank you, @bad_alice. If its nut were a wee bit wider it would not be on sale.
