Re: JBovierA5 vs Eastman 505
Both make nice instruments, i love my F5-T got it straight from Jeff he's very friendly and asked lots of questions about what i wanted and picked one oit for me. I have compared mine to many other mandos some were Eastman sofar i like mine better than any. I'm trying to save for a trip to Nashville with mine to compare and hopefully upgrade, bit i know i will need atleast 3k. The best Eastman i have played sofar was a 315 almost every 315 has sounded better than thier higher models atleast sofar. I have played some nice Kentucky ones also and i'd like to try one of the new ones coming from thier factory
