How does the ETS650 differ from the ETS652 52nd Street?
The ETS650 uses a lacquer finish, French bead wire, and an R neck. The ETS652 has an aged unlacquered finish, a large bell, rolled-style tone holes, and an M neck, reflecting a different design concept within Eastman's professional tenor line.
How does the ETS650 compare with the ETS850 Rue Saint-Georges?
The ETS850 adds Eastman's DS mechanism and includes both R and S necks. The ETS650 is supplied with an R neck and provides the core Rue Saint-Georges configuration at a different position within the professional lineup.
