Eastman AR403CED Classic Finish Electric Archtop Guitar with Hardshell Case

The Eastman AR403CED combines traditional archtop craftsmanship with exceptional playability and versatile electric tone. Featuring a classic double-pickup hollow-body design, elegant appointments, and Eastman's renowned attention to detail, this beautifully crafted instrument delivers the warmth, resonance, and expressive character associated with vintage jazz guitars.

Built with a laminated maple top, back, and sides, the AR403CED features a comfortable 16-inch Venetian cutaway body that provides excellent acoustic resonance while offering improved feedback resistance when amplified. Its three-piece maple neck and ebony fingerboard deliver a smooth, articulate playing experience, complemented by a traditional Even C neck profile and 25-inch scale length.

A pair of Tonerider AC2 humbuckers provides rich, balanced tones with excellent clarity and dynamic response. From warm, rounded jazz sounds and mellow blues to articulate chord work and expressive lead playing, the AR403CED offers impressive versatility. Individual volume and tone controls, along with a three-way pickup selector, allow players to easily shape their sound.

Traditional appointments include an adjustable ebony bridge, elegant ebony-on-brass tailpiece, multi-ply ivoroid binding, and nickel hardware. Eastman's beautiful Classic finish completes the instrument's timeless appearance, making the AR403CED an outstanding choice for players seeking traditional archtop styling with modern reliability.

Includes Eastman hardshell case.
