The Eastman T486 is a semi-hollowbody electric guitar that embodies classic design and boutique craftsmanship at a price point that punches far above its weight. With its finely laminated flamed maple top, back, and sides paired to a solid center block, the T486 delivers a blend of acoustic resonance and focused sustain — making it a true workhorse for players who need warmth, clarity, and versatility in one refined package. This model stands as a modern interpretation of the vintage-inspired thinline archtop, built with the type of care and component quality usually reserved for high-end custom instruments.

At the heart of its sound are Seymour Duncan Jazz and ’59 pickups, offering up a tonal range that’s equally at home in jazz, blues, rock, and even fusion. The neck pickup provides articulate, rounded cleans and velvety warmth perfect for chord work or smoky leads, while the bridge pickup delivers classic PAF-style punch with enough bite to cut through a mix. Whether you’re playing clean or pushing an overdriven amp into mid-gain saturation, the T486 responds dynamically to your touch with excellent note separation and a beautifully balanced voice.

Perfect for live performance or studio recording, the Eastman T486 is a stage-ready semi-hollow with high-end details like an ebony fingerboard, Jescar frets, ivoroid binding, and a genuine bone nut. It’s equally capable of nailing vintage tones as it is handling modern effects-heavy setups, thanks to its clarity and responsive feel. If you're a guitarist looking for a pro-grade semi-hollow that blends boutique tonewoods with classic tonality and modern reliability, the T486 is a guitar that will grow with you for years to come. Available now at Haggerty’s Music, this used model ships with a hardshell case for convenient transport and premium protection.
