I have never seen, nor heard, one of the Borys nylon archtops. I have no idea about the projection on those.
I do have an B520 Maple/Spruce. It plays fine acoustically and does have good projection, unplugged. Acoustically, it isn't going to fill a concert hall, but is has enough, unplugged, to fill a small room. I bought it, used, several years ago and it did come with both an under-bridge multi-transducer plus a soundhole mic setup. It was a working guitar.
They are similar to the Cabaret, but when I looked at those they double the price, new or used. The Eastman is a newer animal. Not sure how many Buscarino sets up every year, in the beginning it seemed like a minimal number.
