Many of the instruments made by Eastman Strings are used by professional musicians.

"I was stunned by the rich tone and gorgeous appearance of the Eastman Strings line of instruments! Their violins deliver everything a professional musician desires. Even their beginner models are a delight to play! I found these instruments to be truely 'player friendly'. I strongly recommend musicians at all skill levels to check out the old-fashioned quality at Eastman Strings."

"The Eastman Strings viola is the friendliest and most rewarding viola I have ever played. It has a warm and earthy tone which is reliable from the top to the very bottom. The instrument is very comfortable, easy to play, and has the feel of an ‘older’ instrument. The craftsmanship is superb and never fails to grab the attention of other musicians. This viola has served me well in many different styles and environments. It has adapted to bluegrass, folk, and classical with minimal effort. It has proven reliable on the road under punishing conditions—it has never let me down. It also delivers a fine tone in the recording studio, much to the delight of recording engineers. I heartily recommend the Eastman Strings model 305 viola to players from all walks of life—it is a superb professional instrument."

"My Eastman cello has consistently amazed me. I discovered it while looking for a cello sturdy and stable enough to endure the half of every year I spend touring.  I definitely got more than I bargained for. I was so delighted by its amalgam of a powerful sound with an even response top to bottom, that I began using it for all my appearances and recordings. And so, years later, when approached by Eastman to endorse their cello line, I could say confidently and unequivocally, yes!"

"The guitar and bass are fantastic instruments, both new, and they held up to weather changes, strange environments (both acoustical and physical) they always played and sounded great. It is an honor to represent such a good product and group of people."

"Just prior to going onstage, Peggy handed me his Eastman Mandolin and beckoned me to play...
...It really was a beauty, such resonance and great tone; little wonder he rates it as about the best he's yet played."

"The sound, playability, and craftsmanship of my Eastman AR800 are all I had hoped for and then some."

Don Nick
Guitarist for Louie Bellson

"My guitar is an 810. It's a beauty. I love it and have been doing some recording with it. Next I may have to have one of your mandolins! Keep up the great work."
