Default Excellent 2007 EASTMAN T185mx Electric Guitar -$995

Hi Everyone, I recently rejoined the forum after years of inactivity. Unfortunately one of the things I need to do is to let go of some of the guitars I've acquired over the years. The first is this excellent condition Eastman semi-hollow body T185mx. Search the forum, including the classifieds, and you'll find some nice comments about this particular make and model. I bought this guitar about 6 years ago, thinking that I needed the option of an electric - but that never really happened and I only used this guitar once or twice and haven't touched it in several years. It is a very nice guitar and I hate to have it sitting here unused. Here are some comments from another classified about this guitar (as it is identical to one sold recently on this forum)
An amazing and versatile guitar
Unlike a 335 style, this guitar is fully hollow carved with all solid woods
A center block sits only under the tun-o-matic bridge and stop tail pc
Much warmer arch-top like tones out of the Neck pickup.
Amazing searing lead-tones from the bridge pickup. And absolutely NO FEEDBACK!
I'm pricing the guitar below market at $995 (compare on this forum, reverb or eBay).

Which pickups does this model have? I know the newer ones have Lollar, but do the old ones?

Smile My goodness

That is PRETTY!

I would be tempted to keep it as art on the wall...

But of course it SHOULD get played!

Best on this and welcome back to the candy store.

Have a FINE WEEKEND

Paul

Default still available

I've had some interest but no buyer yet. I should also state that the $995 price includes shipping.....

Default Pickups on Eastman T185mx

Another forum member informed me that the pickups on this year guitar may be Kent Armstrong pickups. While I haven't been able to verify this yet, I wanted to make sure everyone has all the information I have. Thanks for the input RIred.
