Here for sale we have an Eastman Juliet in Pomona Blonde finish. Made in China in 2017, this guitar features a neck-thru construction comprising a one-piece Okoume neck and body, and 22 fret Ebony fingerboard. Nickel hardware is fitted including Gotoh GE-104B-NI T-o-M style bridge, Gotoh GE101A-NI stop tailpiece and Gotoh SD91-05M-L vintage style split post tuning machines. A pair of Bare Knuckle Old Guard humbucking pickups are installed, and are wired to a 3-way blade switch, independent volumes and master tone controls.
The Okoume neck plays very well, with a profile that could be described as a vintage-style 'C' shape; filling the hand nicely for a substantial grip, whilst remaining slim enough for articulate playing. This is well complemented by the relatively wide nut, which at 1.68" offers ample string spacing for accurate fretting across the register. The Ebony fingerboard used in this particular example is beautifully dark, and with its tight grain adds a real sense of luxury to the playing experience. Along with the 12" radius and Jescar FW47104-P frets, which feel like medium jumbos, the fretboard is confidence-inspiring, highly practical and playable.
The pair of Bare Knuckle Old Guard humbucking pickups installed in this guitar deliver rich and full-bodied ones, well suited to a wide range of playing styles and genres. The neck is warm and round, with plenty of power to push your lead lines and solos to the front of the mix. Handling both clean tones and a range of gain levels very well, this is a versatile neck pickup. The bridge position is of course brighter, and is exceptionally well suited to rock and blues rhythm parts and riffs. With independent volume controls and a master tone, it's nice and easy to tweak your tone right on the guitar while playing.
