Congrads on the Eastman. How about giving some info on the tone/volume of your new mando. Maybe at a later date. Give her some time to open up a bit. I have always played pretty decent handmade USA mandos however I did play an Eastman several mths ago and I was pretty impressed with the tone. It could have been the same model you have. Thanks Stephen

And here's a very bad phone picture of my new Eastman 514:
(Sorry if I've hijacked this thread - I didn't think we needed a fresh one for such a poor photo)
Warning: Eastmans are 'gateway' instruments. They sound so good that you next mandolin will need to be quite a bit more expensive to satisfy your need for change. Well, at least that was my experience.
