Nice addition to the clan. Love my Eastmans.

I might have to check one of those out. I don't suppose they have released the prices yet.

They look nice but come on Eastman we want a 000 and a Roy smeck model! Well me and Silly do anyway.

So are these both 25.4? I was hoping they would start doing OMs in the longer scale.

The OM is 24.9 and the D is 25.4 on the web site (like the e6,e8,e10 etc) I'm not keen on the pickup as standard, I would, if possible, prefer my acoustics to have no pickup installed and no strap button on the neck.

I've be lusting after an Eastman rosewood B&S OM for a while to go with my E6D and E60M. Maybe I'd part with the dread to get one. Only thing is whenever I buy a rosewood B&S guitar I'm never happy with the tone and I soon sell them on. I'm a glutten for punishment. So I might just try this new addition.

Man, they clearly don't have a clue how many 12 fret 000s they would sell.
I keep hoping!

I own an E1D and an E2D. Both units are 1.75 nuts. Every E1D and E2D I have ever measured was 1.75. Even if there was a slight variation being hand made still had the exact same string spacing.

Eastman guitars are top notch quality & sound! I love mine.

That was an early misprint on the OM. It's 24.9 like all their other OMs.
