I didn't know if anyone of the 7 string hollowbody players out there were aware of this guitar. It's by a company called Eastman Strings and was introduced sometime last year. It's completely hollow (solid wood construction,carved spruce top flamed maple back and sides) This model has a single Kent Armstong humbucker in the neck position.
I was drawn to it because there aren't many acoustic options for the extended range player. I also appreciate the smaller dimensions of the body compared to the average jazz box.
They build all of their instruments by hand in China (there is a cool video tour of the facility on youtube) The interesting thing is that they mainly build Mandolins,and Violins. I think this may be the reason this thing has such beautiful acoustic tone.
Anyway, here is a clip of me using mine with the AxeFX Ultra and the boomerang to make some sounds.
Enjoi!
