Since 2001, Eastwood has been creating some of the most exciting Electric Guitars the world has ever seen. Their RADICAL VINTAGE REMAKE series feature a variety of models based on popular sixties designs - from the classic Mosrites to the top-selling AIRLINE - they capture the excitement and style of the originals. Each year the prices of the originals skyrocket - they are getting harder to find and harder to play! Eastwood's focus is to make top quality replicas - that cost less and play better - so the average musician can experience the excitement of playing one of these beautiful vintage guitars as their every day player.
History
