Happy New Eastman Guitar Day to me! Oh, and Merry Christmas too, I guess...
Lollar pickups, aged Gotoh hardware, "vintage" nitro finish (whatever that means), and coloured string ends for Bg's viewing pleasure.

Worth noting Eastman switched from nitro to urethane 'Truetone' in mid 2020, but it doesn't seem to be a big deal since folks on the Eastman forum have had to email to company to find out what finish their guitars had and couldn't distinguish it otherwise. Time will tell how it will ages, though.
