Where the AR580CE fits
The AR580CE shares the broad solid-spruce / laminated-flamed-maple construction of the AR503CE, but moves to a Seymour Duncan Jazz pickup and a more ornate hardware and binding package. Above this point, Eastman’s archtop range moves further into all-solid and hand-carved construction.
