The Eastman AR405 brings classic archtop styling and tone to a single-pickup configuration that captures the warm, woody character of vintage jazz and blues guitars. The 16" non-cutaway archtop body, built with maple laminate top, back, and sides, delivers the resonant, midrange-focused tone that defines the archtop format, while the floating rosewood bridge and nickel trapeze tailpiece preserve that traditional acoustic responsiveness even when amplified.

Fitted with a Tonerider Dog Ear P-90 in the neck position, the AR405 produces a clear, articulate, and dynamically expressive single-coil tone, perfectly suited to jazz, blues, rockabilly, and roots styles. The traditional even C neck profile, vintage-style tuners with butterbean ivoroid buttons, and Truetone Vintage Gloss finish complete a guitar that looks every bit as classic as it sounds. Ideal for players who want authentic archtop tone and feel without the complexity of a multi-pickup system, and for guitarists exploring vintage-inspired jazz and blues tones for the first time.
