Martin OM-28 on a Budget? This is the Eastman E20-OM

Earlier this week I picked up an Eastman E20-OM. I've been a fan of Eastman guitars for a while and it's no secret that they structured their models after Martin (just look at the headstock). I thoughts I'd share a video comparing my new Eastman to the Martin HD-28 that I've had for a few years now. I'll talk about the manufacturing process and the differences between the two companies, as well as offer a bit of advice on purchasing an Eastman if you're in the market for one.
