Reviving this thread.
About a year or so ago I purchased my 1st true electric guitar since the 70’s. An Eastman t486 gold burst. Also a positive grid amp to go with. The goal was to get the widest neck on a production electric (1-3/4” nut). Time got away from me with the duo and hadn’t used it much. Fast forward to late Jan this year. We gave the duo a rest and my acoustics in the shop for much needed fret work. Taking advantage of the down time I’ve begun my journey with new weapons to finally learn lead guitar skills. Something very foreign to my world of bass player. All I can say is WOW. This is a really great guitar. Keep in mind I have no experience with any other electric guitars available and not making a statement in that area but, WOW. I do know a good guitar when it’s in my hands. Out of the box, playability, finish, looks, sound. I highly recommend anyone looking for an amazing value for you dollar, here it is!
