Hehehe… these guys are complete madmen –– Eastwood has once again upped the ante on seriously funky vintage-style guitars, with the limited release of an Eastwood Airline 2p LTD in Metallic Margarita finish.
The guitar will be built in a run of just 48 instruments (24 with Bigsby Vibrato, 24 hardtail,) and is apparently sporting original NOS (new old stock) Valco knobs, a vintage tone switchplate, and a Deluxe Airline hardshell case.
Prices are running $899 for the Standard model, and $999 for the Deluxe model with Bigsby. The guitar will ship beginning August 31st, 2008, and pre-ordering is suggested.
Not convinced? Check out the demo… that’s some solid chicken-pickin’ goodness.

Not sure what I liked more…the guitar or the demo. Love how the guy gets stone serious when he’s playing, then gets nutty when he’s done. (If you haven’t been to the Eastwood site he has a number of nifty demos posted there).

I took a look at the picture and thought it was a cartoon of a guitar at first, not a real guitar. Like a Flintstone guitar. But it plays really good!

Gorgeous color, goes with the over-the-top shape of the body. But with the price bump you’ve got to compare it to the three pickup version w/bigsby… I don’t know which I’d rather have :/
