Goodluck man!!!

If you have any questions about Eastman, PM me, or send me an email.

A little fun fact (and you can ask him Max), while Jim loves the Tomasi, the Jolivet will make him wrinkle his nose.....so, if you are auditioning for Eastman, play the Jolivet Concertino if you don't want to play for too long. (I am KIDDING) (seriously, he is not fond of the Jolivet)
