Default Eastman AR 371

Hey all,
I have been gassing for an archtop to learn jazz chords and licks on. Several folks here have said the Eastman's are a good bet.The AR 371 is obviously a Gibson ES175 knockoff.The youtube example has a great sound.Wondering if anyone here has played one and or may know of a used one for sale?
Thanks,
Jan

The AR371 is an awesome guitar, and is one of Eastman's most popular models. I think it's actually their best selling model.

We've sold a bunch of them at RedZone, and can give you a great AGF member price (send me a PM) if you'd like to get one. We have them in Blond or Sunburst, and they come with a factory hard case.

I play an AR 372 and love it. Very nice piece, don't let the price confuse you. Very good value!

We sold our last sunburst AR371ce. I have another sunburst on the way, but I already have someone who has his eye on that one, too. It should be in next week. Still have the natural one... Maybe I should go ahead and order another sunburst. I'll try to snap a photo of the next one for you before it gets away.
