The Eastman Jim
Fisch Archtop Guitars
Jim Fisch had a life long passion
for archtop guitars and the music created by these instruments. In 1982 Jim co-arthured
"Epiphone - The House of Staphopolous" documenting the historic
company. His regular contributions to 20th Century Guitars kept players
and collectors abreast of the most recent innovations in the guitar industry.
Jim joined Eastman Guitars in 2004 to help us
expand and improve our line of instruments. His accomplishments can be seen
throughout nearly every one of our guitars and mandolins.
The Jim Fisch archtop guitars represent the
last project that Jim worked on before his sudden death in 2006. Jim's hope was
that these guitars would allow players who did not own an archtop guitar the
ability to do so. Eastman is dedicating these guitars to Jim's memory, and will
donate a portion of the proceeds from each guitar sale to the newly formed Jim
Fisch Foundation, which will work to expose the music of the archtop guitar to individuals
throughout the world.
Each Jim Fisch Archtop Guitar is hand crafted
with a solid Spruce for the top and Mahogany back and sides. These guitars
feature Rosewood fingerboards and are available in Classic and Classic/Sunburst
finishes.
