Eastman T486B-BK Black Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar with Bigsby and Hardshell Case

The Eastman T486B-BK combines classic semi-hollowbody styling with exceptional craftsmanship, expressive P-90 tone, and a sleek Black finish. Featuring a traditional 16-inch double-cutaway body, this beautifully appointed instrument delivers the warmth and resonance of a classic semi-hollow guitar with outstanding sustain, clarity, and comfortable playability.

Constructed with deluxe flamed maple laminate for the top, back, and sides, the T486B features a solid full-body centre block that enhances sustain and helps control unwanted feedback. Its slim 1 3/4-inch body depth provides excellent playing comfort while retaining the rich, open tonal character that makes semi-hollow electric guitars so desirable.

The maple neck is paired with a smooth ebony fingerboard, elegant pearl split-block parallelogram inlays, and 22 Jescar frets. A 24 3/4-inch scale length offers a relaxed, responsive playing feel, making the T486B equally suited to expressive lead work and articulate rhythm playing.

Equipped with dual Seymour Duncan Phat Cat pickups, the T486B-BK delivers the warmth, clarity, and bite of traditional P-90 single-coils in a humbucker-sized design. The neck pickup produces rich, rounded cleans with excellent articulation, while the bridge pickup offers punchy midrange, crisp attack, and natural grit when pushed into overdrive. This versatile combination makes the T486B an excellent choice for jazz, blues, roots, rockabilly, and classic rock.

The Bigsby B70 vibrato provides smooth, expressive pitch modulation, allowing players to add subtle shimmer, gentle bends, and classic vintage-style vibrato. Paired with a Gotoh Tune-O-Matic bridge, it offers traditional feel and outstanding musical expression.

Premium appointments include Pingwell tuners, nickel hardware, ivoroid binding, pearl headstock detailing, and a traditional five-ply pickguard. The sophisticated Black Truetone Gloss finish beautifully complements the guitar's graceful double-cutaway silhouette, creating an instrument with timeless visual appeal.

Includes Eastman hardshell case.
