Eastman two point mandolins
Two Points are not just for jazz and blues. Comfortable to
play, with great clarity and snappy response, these
instruments please most players not stuck on having a
scroll. They are truly spectacular. With Eastman's usual
attention to detail, traditional hand construction, and a
wonderfully fresh look. Each with Eastman’s own deluxe
rectangular cordura-nylon covered, velour-lined hard case
complete with rain flap, full length music pocket, and straps.
Generally with Schaller tuners.
F hole models have a long neck joined at the 15th fret with
the fingerboard extending over the body.
Oval hole models have the short fingerboard joined at the
12th fret and extending onto the intricately carved top.
They also have an inlaid rosette and binding around the
oval hole.
