Great comparison. I have to agree, the Eastman had the nicest tone to my ears.

@adrianmolinamusic 10 месяцев назад

Thanks! this woody tone has a lot of personality, doesn't it?

@darenguitar9664 11 месяцев назад

Wow! What a great comparison video. This is very interesting, we normally hear the guitars just through the amp. I enjoyed that, thank you very much. The Eastman is a beautiful guitar for sure!!

@adrianmolinamusic 10 месяцев назад

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Daren!

@dalesutherland7092 11 месяцев назад

I agree with the Eastman quality and sound. I have an Eastman 810CE, a Heritage 525 and a Peerless Renaissance Custom.

@adrianmolinamusic 10 месяцев назад

Eastman quality, sound and also very important the price, isn't it? By the way, nice collection of guitars you have!

When I went looking for a good archtop a decade or so ago, I had all the big names on my list. But after trying a bunch, I ended up buying an Eastman, even though I'd never heard of the company before. It just sounded so great. I ended up scratching it the first day I owned it! Doh! But as the Japanese say, "wabi sabi."

@adrianmolinamusic 9 месяцев назад

Ups! Scratching your new guitar is never a good feeling... but that means you were using it, I think it would be worse if no one is playing it and keeping layers and layers of dust

@terramareverburg 7 месяцев назад

I really like this demo! The difference is very clear.

Glad you like them! Thanks for sharing Kimball!

@Gk2003m 9 месяцев назад

It’s a fair comparison, as they all have their electronics mounted into the top (as opposed to floating). And yes, the Eastman has the most ‘open’ and full sound acoustically. Beautiful.

@adrianmolinamusic 8 месяцев назад

Thanks! I'm very curious about that "open and beautiful sound" of the Eastman, so I was thinking of making another video comparing the acoustic differences between an all-laminated wood archtop and an all-solid one with similar specs to isolate that thing.

@pacucoreyes7268 4 месяца назад

La Eastman es una verdadera maravilla, en mi opinión es la más redonda y equilibrada de las tres. Enhorabuena!

@adrianmolinamusic 3 месяца назад

Gracias! Sí, la verdad es que el Eastman sobresalía bastante en comparación con las otras dos.

@Leoguitar2009 Месяц назад

I love the amount of good guitars used that are better for metal then the 7+ string guitars used by modern metal guitarists like Tosin Abasi or scalloped or multi scale fret guitars used by shredders like Yngwie Malmsteem or solid bodies used by every metal guitarist except for a few

@geraldponce8336 2 месяца назад

Got a Eastman ar805ce. Feeling pretty good about it. Warm and deep sounding and clarity

@adrianmolinamusic Месяц назад

It´s a really nice guitar for that price! Congrats for your Eastman Gerald!

@geraldponce8336 Месяц назад

@@adrianmolinamusic like the tru-gloss finish. It has a nice smell and sounds woody. And yes the price is right for what we are getting. A hand carved solid wood arch top. That would cost a small fortune if it was made by a small American boutique guitar shop. 10k+? Probably the only awkward thing is the tail piece. I would have used either an ornate bell brass tail piece or something completely made out of ebony. Ebony over brass ok. It is good enough for the money.

@geraldponce8336 Месяц назад

Thanks @@adrianmolinamusic

@JillandKevin 5 месяцев назад

I really feel that the Eastman 805 is in a higher class than the others in your presentation. But that's mainly because I play older Swing, which sounds way better with an acoustic archtop tone. I owned an 805 for several years, and (of course) wish I still had it! I wound up playing it 95% of the time, in Western Swing bands, Straight ahead Swing bands, and even a couple of Blues bands! (Even though I had about 19 different guitars at the time!). The Eastman is truly a professional grade instrument! I had several other Eastman guitars, and found them all to be wonderful guitars!

@adrianmolinamusic 4 месяца назад

Thanks for sharing your passion for Eastman guitars! I totally agree, they are very good and for a good price.

@josephmckenna4068 2 месяца назад

Thanks for the comparison. I agree the Eastman has that ringing clarity of a wood top and is really balanced and focused

@adrianmolinamusic Месяц назад

You´re welcome Joseph! I love that Eastman guitar.

I am an Ibanez player but the Eastman sounds good

@adrianmolinamusic 10 месяцев назад

This Eastman has some magic, right?

@zepapires 3 месяца назад

This Ibanez model lacks a solid top.

@richyrich5049 6 месяцев назад

Hi Adrian, I think your video would be much better if you switched to flat wound strings. They not only provide better tone, but you also avoid the finger slide sounds. Otherwise, nice playing!

@adrianmolinamusic 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Rich for sharing! I've used flat wounds strings and they're great but not for me... I made another video comparing those two types of strings. Here it is: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-76mEeaZTUks.html

@bpabustan Месяц назад

The Ibanez is the cheapest of the three but it has the more all around sound. The Hofner has a great electric sound in all 3 position. But the acoustic is kinda muddy The Eastman has the best mix sound. And the clear winner But the thing is, all three sounds amazing. All are just a matter of preference.

@adrianmolinamusic 25 дней назад

I totally agree on that! it's just a matter of preference. Each of those guitars has a different yet interesting personality. thanks for sharing Bryan!

@kenster865 6 месяцев назад

Nice comparison, indeed. The Eastman hands-down was the best sounding of the three, followed by the Ibanez and the Hofner a distant third. You're a decent player and kudos to you as you can do these types of comparisons with ease. You need to expand your comparisons beyond just these three. I own a Gibson ES-175 but often want to "upgrade". A "Baseline" instrument would be a Gibson L-5 CES. It's the "Granddaddy" of all modern jazz archtops. Other comparisons would be offerings from Heritage (their Golden Eagle or Super Eagle come to mind) and perhaps a Benedetto, like their 16-B favored by awesome lady jazz guitarist Jocelyn Gould. Food for thought... 🙂🙂

@adrianmolinamusic 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing Ken! I would consider it if I have the opportunity to be around those amazing guitars you mentioned.

@brentgilbert4208 11 месяцев назад

In your hands, they all sound great, but the Hofner really caught my ear!

@adrianmolinamusic 10 месяцев назад

Thank you very much! I agree, the Hofner is the most special one.

@kenraiteri451 9 месяцев назад

Is the Hofner vintage?

@ronaigner7708 10 месяцев назад

I agree with your decided winner but the width of the Eastman at the nut makes it more difficult to play. Just my 2 cents worth. ( Eastman 1 3/4” nut)

@kamarienedwards1757 9 месяцев назад

I’ve played classical for a while and love the east man’s nut width

@JillandKevin 5 месяцев назад

And that's actually one (of many) reasons that I LOVED my Eastman AR805CE. I dislike narrow fretboards!

@ShawnHeath 9 месяцев назад

Thanks so much for this! Since the Eastman only had the one pickup, the comparison would've been a little better if you had lined them up by pickup, instead of going through the different settings on each guitar. In any case, the Eastman was indeed great, but it was nice to be reminded how fantastic sounding those mini humbuckers are. They're so often overlooked and not often found on guitars, but they really hit that sweet spot for me. Do you have another with a Charlie Christian pickup? If so, which do you prefer: CC or mini HB?

@adrianmolinamusic 8 месяцев назад

You're welcome, Shawn. I think I'm probably going to line them up a different way for next time. I don't actually have any guitars with Charlie Christian pickups but, if I have to choose, I'll go with a nice pair of bright humbuckers.

@gillesgenete9598 9 месяцев назад

My preferences go to Ibanez for electric, and Eastman for acoustic. I play an Ibanez AF95 and Eastman AC372.

@adrianmolinamusic 9 месяцев назад

Cool choice!

@laurencehaynes1321 10 месяцев назад

Was impressed with the hofner presidential but the Eastman was warm responsive great tone acoustically and amp . Eastman wins hands down , it has that true l6 vibe

@adrianmolinamusic 9 месяцев назад

I totally agree Laurence

@nangkorasiagtr6100 10 месяцев назад

definitely Eastman.... But Right Hand picking Technique Significantly contribute Tone Production (IMHO)... thanks for sharing

@adrianmolinamusic 9 месяцев назад

I totally agree.

@andreasfetzer7559 3 месяца назад

Hofner is it!

@adrianmolinamusic Месяц назад

Magical guitar! Thanks for sharing Andreas!

@webrambler88 4 месяца назад

The Hofner sounds the best acoustically!

@adrianmolinamusic 3 месяца назад

This Hofner has a sound slightly closer to a flat top which gives us a really interesting acoustic sound compared to the other archtops in this video.

@bernardmartinand7506 9 месяцев назад

The most important, the player 😊

@adrianmolinamusic 8 месяцев назад

I couldn't agree more Bernard

@4578a Месяц назад

Immediately the Hofner sounds way better than the Ibanez. The eastman of course sounds great but out of these three i'd go with number 2.

@adrianmolinamusic 21 час назад

Good choice! The Hofner is the most special of the three. It has a unique voice and character.

@hampirterkenalchannel2697 6 месяцев назад

Waw eastman very good

@adrianmolinamusic 5 месяцев назад

I agree, it's an amazing jazz box!

@marklansaw5202 9 месяцев назад

eastman is the winner hands down

@adrianmolinamusic 8 месяцев назад

I totally agree, maybe it is due to the types of wood... I was thinking of making another video comparing the acoustic differences between a fully laminated wood archtop and a fully solid one with similar specs to isolate that thing.

@daveduffy2823 Месяц назад

The Eastman wins by far

@adrianmolinamusic 20 дней назад

I agree! The Eastman is an excellent guitar. Thanks for sharing Dave!

@russellives6069 10 месяцев назад

I’m not a jazz player, but the Eastman surprised me at how good it sounded. The Ibanez surprised me at how bad it sounded. The Hofner wins hands down though.

@adrianmolinamusic 9 месяцев назад

This Hofner guitar definitely has some magic in it.
