The Eastman T486 'Classic Finish' is a striking rendition of Gibson's timeless ES-335 semi-hollow design, built by Eastman with genuine craftsmanship and style. Its semi-translucent amber nitrocellulose lacquer gracefully reveals the laminated flame maple top beneath, giving this classic finish version real depth and character.

A pair of Seymour Duncan humbuckers, a '59 in the neck and a Jazz in the bridge, deliver a classic voice with real depth that complements the thinline's feedback-resistant design, while a 16" lower bout, 24.75" scale length and 1-3/4" bone nut strike a comfortable balance between playability and expression. The ebony fingerboard is set with elegant pearl split block inlays across 22 frets, and the T486 is ideal for players moving between rock, jazz, blues and country, with a Gotoh bridge for precise tuning and a hardshell case included.

Features

  • Semi-hollow ES-335-style design in a laminated flame maple body finished in semi-translucent amber nitrocellulose lacquer gives the T486 genuine vintage depth.
  • Seymour Duncan '59 neck and Jazz bridge humbuckers combine for a classic, versatile voice suited to rock, jazz, blues and country.
  • Ebony fingerboard with elegant pearl split block inlays across 22 Jescar frets offers smooth, precise playability.

  • Ivoroid binding across the body, neck and pickguard, with nickel hardware and a pearl logo, gives the T486 refined, classic styling.
