At the source of every great feature in Eastman's guitars are highly skilled craftspeople who sculpt, refine and perfect a vision. The Antique Varnish process is no exception. The same team behind Eastman's respected Violin Varnish Shop painstakingly hand apply and age the full series of Antique Varnish Archtops, Thinlines, Acoustics and Mandolins. The six step process starts with a basecoat application to fill the grain, then moves to color application, concluding with a French polish, resulting in a finish that's softer than lacquer, with a smoother tone.
The resulting sound is pure and like no other.
