How does this differ from what Breedlove has done for a generation with their Passport series, or Martin a generation before with their Sigma series? On paper it makes a good bit of business sense - and I love that the operation in the US will be growing in conjunction, but I would wait for them to iron out the kinks in the process before lauding it.

FWIW I think that their guitars are a wonderful modern take on the Martin aesthetic and that the entire Eastman line will likely improve because of it. Unfortunately, due to my own personal economics unless they partner with Wal Mart I will not likely ever even get to try one. That’s not me hating though; I’m perfectly happy with what I’m already playing.
