Eastman thinline guitars are handcrafted and lacquered — the way they ought to be. They have a warm, rich tone and feature premium pickups from the world’s finest manufacturers, meticulously selected for maximum character. The instruments in our Thinline Series — whether featuring solid construction for the warmer, fuller tones or laminate construction for those times on stage when things need to get louder — possess unique characteristics made possible by the differences in body style, tone woods, construction, and size.

My friend Ted Baker, a fantastic piano player, had been doing lots of tracking sessions with Donald and Walter for the Two Against Nature recording. They had been working on that record for a couple of years, and in late 1999 they asked Ted to recommend a guitar player. He had a copy of my first solo record, a collection of instrumental music in a style influenced by Weather Report, among others, and he played a bit of the first track for Donald and Walter. From what I gather, somebody made some wisecrack about the derivative nature of the music, but shortly after that I got a call from Walter asking me to come in and do some overdubs. I ended up doing several days of work on that record, and at one of the sessions they said they were planning a big touring year to accompany the release of the new record, and they asked me if I’d be interested in playing guitar. DONALD FAGEN AND WALTER BECKER ARE KNOWN FOR BEING VERY PARTICU- LAR IN THE STUDIO. WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST STUDIO SESSION WITH STEELY DAN LIKE? It went smoothly, I thought. We worked for about four hours on one rhythm guitar part, and did many takes without too many comments about what I should do differently the next time. But they’re used to taking their time and enjoying the luxury of a relaxed pace in the studio.
