Eastman AR503CE-SB Sunburst Electric Archtop Guitar with Hardshell Case

The Eastman AR503CE-SB combines traditional archtop craftsmanship with rich acoustic resonance, warm vintage-inspired tone, and timeless elegance. Finished in a beautiful Sunburst, this handcrafted hollow-body guitar features a solid spruce top, flamed maple back and sides, and a premium Seymour Duncan Seth Lover humbucker, delivering the expressive character and tonal sophistication sought after by jazz and blues guitarists.

The solid spruce top provides excellent acoustic responsiveness, warmth, and dynamic sensitivity, while the laminated flamed maple back and sides contribute clarity, projection, and tonal balance. Its 16-inch Venetian cutaway body offers a comfortable playing experience with easy access to the upper frets, making it equally suited to traditional jazz chord melodies, expressive lead playing, and sophisticated blues.

A three-piece maple neck with Eastman's Traditional Even C profile and smooth ebony fingerboard provides exceptional comfort and articulation. The 25-inch scale length offers a balanced feel with excellent note definition and sustain.

Equipped with a Seymour Duncan Seth Lover humbucker in the neck position, the AR503CE-SB delivers the warm, rounded lows, rich midrange, and smooth, articulate highs associated with classic PAF-style pickups. Its simple volume and tone controls allow players to shape their sound while preserving the guitar's natural acoustic character.

Elegant appointments include an adjustable ebony bridge, ebony-on-brass tailpiece, multi-ply ivoroid binding, and nickel hardware. The beautiful Sunburst Truetone gloss finish completes this refined instrument, highlighting its traditional archtop design.

Includes Eastman hardshell case.
