Product Description
This Eastman Custom Jazz Elite 17 is mint with no fret wear and full guitars ‘n Jazz warranty. . It is “gig ready” out of the box. The Jazz Elite 17 is a 17″ lower bout by 2 1/2″ depth at the rim and features Eastman best premium woods, 905 neck profile, abalone inlays, hand wound Lollar Imperial set humbucking pickup, and most importantly heavy parallel bracing used in the 60’s by Gibson in it’s famous L5 models which are extremely expensive today. The fuller 905 profile neck and the heavy parallel top bracing makes a much stiffer top and a more complex Gibson like Jazz tone with the clarity that Eastman archtops are famous, but with a warmer jazz tone. Feel and tone of this Jazz Elite is reminiscent of the early Heritage Golden Eagles which cost almost 3 times more and are no longer produced. This Jazz Elite 17 comes in a gloss Sunburst nitro finish with all maple binding.
