This is a seriously cool offset and a great collaboration between Eastman and Kauffmann. The classic three-colour sunburst, tortoiseshell guard and dark rosewood fingerboard give it a familiar vintage appearance, while the heavily aged nitro finish adds the character of a genuinely well-used instrument. The offset shape and pair of cream P-90s make it stand apart from the more conventional Jazzmaster-style formula.
The roasted pine body and roasted maple neck should provide a lively, resonant foundation with plenty of attack and acoustic response. Lollar Soapbar P-90s are a particularly strong choice, offering the thickness and midrange authority of a traditional P-90 while retaining clarity, dynamics and a slightly raw edge when pushed. The Halon bridge and vibrato hardware further elevate the specification, providing a refined and dependable take on the traditional offset system. A distinctive boutique-inspired instrument that combines vintage character with thoughtful modern construction.
Condition Report
Mint condition beyond the extensive factory-applied aged finish. All lacquer checking, chips, exposed timber, marks, fading and apparent playwear form part of the original Time Travel relic treatment and should not be mistaken for subsequent damage. Presents exceptionally well overall and is supplied with its original case, tremolo arm, documentation and accessories.
