Have ordered my 3rd eastwood guitar. I have been so pleased with the guitars. I think I'm going to stay with this company. I play diverse music and these guitars allows me to really sound the best.

Better than I hoped for. 5 star rating

Plays very well after a setup With my preferred string gauges, it feels good in my hands. However, the pickups are just so-so, I'm in the process of replacing them with something much better. Build quality is very good, and this guitar is definitely worth the price. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

This is a superb guitar. The sound is great; the p90 pickups are highly responsive. I love the blend of the neck and bridge pickup. The guitar is beautifully built with fine workmanship. It's a very light guitar and it resonates even when played unplugged. Overall, I would highly recommend this guitar.

I enjoy playing it I need to learn the right chords to play so I cannot give 5/5 because I am learning to play chords rather than single notes and noise with numerous pedals.

Awesome and niche instrument that you will not find anywhere else. Mine has a few minor imperfections in the finish, but it sounds too good to send back.

Although the instrument I purchased was not what I was looking for the customer service was second to none. Excellent!

I pre-ordered a flame blue Airline Map FM several months ago and it finally arrived last week. Before opening the box, I let it acclimate for a day. After unboxing, I was struck by how freakin' beautiful the guitar is. It is gorgeous. It is also lighter-weight than my eyes tell me it should be, which I'm sure it at least partly related to the chambered body. I plugged this beauty into my Axe-FX III and jammed for a quite a while. Wow. This guitar has absolutely stellar playability. Everything about it is top-tier. It is the best "LP" I have ever owned. It plays fantastically, sounds sweet and beautiful, and every cosmetic detail is flawless. it's just a perfect guitar. Home run for Eastwood Guitars! Great job.

I'm a beginner for lap steel and regular guitar. I started out on a lap steel from another company and didn't like the sound or the build, the fixed bridge has a sharp corner which made it kinda painful to play.
The guitar is beautiful and comes with a nice case.
I enjoy playing this guitar, I like the adjustable bridge and the pickup sounds great. I'm looking forward to receiving my Warren Ellis CDR.

I am so happy with this guitar it made a long trip from England to New Zealand which I appreciate because it came duty-free
I fell in love with the look of this guitar online, then re-fell in love with it when I played it this guitar has incredible tone it comes alive when you play it I have a flying V , a Firebird a sonic 180 a fender Stratocaster USA and none of them compare to this guitar I kid you not I am so happy with this purchase thank you so much

PS I ordered this guitar with a Dusenburg tremolo which is so cool and so worth it highly recommend it

This is a very sturdy and good looking strap. I'm using it with a rather heavy ES-335-style guitar that weighs about 9 lbs and the strap is supercomfy!

The guitar arrived well packed. There is a minor flaw on the top along the edge where it feels bumpy, but only noticable to the touch. Also, under the heel of the pickguard you can see a spot where some paint is missing. That was easy to fix with a touch enamel.

The guitar looks amazing and after some cleanup on the pickup covers (some goo left from the plastic protective film) it is very visually appealing. I wasn't so sure about the color online, but it looks much much better in person.

Playability was OK out of the box. It was well intonated but there was a lot of fret buzzing on the upper frets and frets 7-14 were a little uneven causing some buzzing with a string bend. It was set up with a set of .009 strings, which were much too light. The nut was cut high, just like every other guitar I have ever bought, I had the nut adjusted and a spot fret dressing done on frets 7-14, and a general setup for action and intonation as well as restringing it with .010 strings.

After the work was all done it plays and sounds really good. I love the baseball bat neck feel. It is different (not in a bad way) from the strats that I usually play. The pickups are warm at not overpowering, and it scratches the Les Paul itch at a fraction of the cost. It FEELS like an old guitar. I am very happy with it and it is diffucult to put down. Because of the neck size, the very upper frets are a bit of a stretch to get to.

Every guitar needs setup work, so that does not factor into the score if it is normal types of things that need to be done. I always factor in a $50-$100 expense to get things playing the way I like them. So, don't let that deter you. This guitar arrived in very playable condition, it just needed a little more to make it perfect.

I will buy another guitar from Eastwood, and I whokeheartedly recommend this one. Solid vintage feel and tone. I absolutely love it.

After receiving my red Folkstar resonator electric I was a bit surprised that the action would be set so low as to make it somewhat difficult to play slide without buzzing. After conferring with a rep from EASTWOOD, instead of returning the guitar he made an offer for me to have it set up to my liking at a repair shop and a reasonable refund would be credited. I just got the guitar back today and am very pleased with both the work that was done by the shop and how Eastwood made good with their credit offer. I'm now a big EASTWOOD fan ! The .012 strings now on the guitar has made a big difference as well. Will be playing it at gig this weekend.

Really great guitar with perfect playability and sound!

Arrived in Melbourne Australia from Liverpool in 5 days. It was set up well. A quick tune up and I was playing it for hours. Looks good, sounds even better! A quality guitar at a budget price. Great value.

I'm well schooled in the quality and performance of Eastwood Guitars ; I've already got 10 of them !
But I was missing an Airline Map for my collection. So when Eastwood announced they'd be making
a few Maps with a flamed maple top, I knew the time was right.
Since my Messenger is in Greenburst and my Surfcaster 12 is in Orangeburst, I ordered my Map FM in Blueburst.
It arrived last week and man is it a beautiful guitar. I even managed to get serial #56 ; my lucky number.
As always, the fit and finish is perfect and it sounds and plays incredible too !
The only problem is that now that I have 11 Eastwoods, I should probably get 1 more to make an even dozen . . .

Works great!!

Very nice, leather, sturdy. Nice retro style. Straps like this outlive you

The first thing you notice with Colin Newman Map is its looks and quality of finish, something you can expect with Korean Manufacture. It feels so solid and the neck feel is premium. The switching takes a little getting used to but with 2 humbuckers and a piezo under the bridge there is alot of tone posibilities. A great unique guitar.

Great classic strap at a great price! Always love doing business with Mike and the crew from Eastwood. Professional and friendly.
