Great ES-335 copy from China, and built with exceptional quality control and value for money spent. The finish seems hit and miss, so pay careful attention to photos of specific product chosen. Looks like the reddish stain is applied in unfortunate coverage areas.
The playing experience is wonderful, and the ebony fretboard is very comfortable, if a bit wide feeling. Pickups sound fine, while many owners seem to replace them, there isn't any need that I can detect.
Nice heavy hardshell case included.
Prices have gone up recently and still a decent buy.
Sweetwater is fast to ship, and customer services have always been helpful for purchase issues.

After watching and reading nothing but spectacular reviews of Eastman's guitars I decided to go ahead take a chance on one. The price to quality ratio is insane, right out the box I was blown away by how nice of an instrument it is. Everything is very high quality and well put together, and I was in love with it before I even plugged it in. The acoustic sound is great, very well balanced sound and responsive on it's own without amplification. Plugged in it is beautiful, very rich, clear, full sounding pickups. The case is also very nice, fits perfectly and is not overly bulky or heavy. Also comes with a hex/phillips head adjustment tool specifically for the guitar. I adjusted the pick up height slightly and I've never felt a smoother adjustment than I did with this guitar. I don't think it's possible to find a nicer instrument at this price point.

I bought mine open box from Sweetwater, but everything about it was perfect. It took me awhile to even find the photographed ding it was so minor, but everything matched exactly and it is a stunning instrument. I will definitely be looking at Eastman again for my next instrument purchase, very well thought out and designed instrument.
