Re: How to inspect a used Eastman?
I've owned a couple and played many (like dozens, i tried about 6 at Wintergrass last week) On reverb, you can use the filters on left to choose sellers willing to ship to Canada, which there aren't many of in U.S. They mostly seem to be in border states, you could also look at Kentucky and The Loar that could be shipped to you
All above info is good, like dental mirror and fret wear, oftentimes you'll have to bring your own strings to test play w/decent strings, which will make it brighter than its normally very bright sound. Eastman's serial number should tell you year of production (1st 2 digits).
Kentucky km900
Yamaha piano, clarinet, violin; generic cello;
a pedal steel (highly recommended); banjo, dobro don't get played much cause i'm considerate ;}
Shopping/monitoring prices: vibraphone/marimbas, rhodes, synths, Yamaha brass and double reeds
