This guitar is incredible. I own a vintage Les Paul and Strat, and this instrument is as good as either of them! The build quality is flawless. The person/ people who put this guitar together are craftsmen second to none. The attention to detail is total. Anyone who has reservations about a Korean built guitar should think again. These guys are grade A guitar smiths.



The guitar looks absolutely stunning. The neck is sleek fast and perfectly finished. Better than my vintage Strat!! The sound is unique Ballsy resonant bass notes and rich bright top end. Using an overdive sound makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

Thank you Eastwood

Getting back into playing the guitar and wow! what sweet looking set up, so well made and perfect intonation straight out of the box.

Playing through a hand made princeton, hepas of meaty tones and exactly the P90 tone i was after!

Well done Eastwood.

My husband was thrilled by his anniversary present. And therefore, so am I.

This Guitar Has now been used for a year now still LOVE IT

as a lefty most options are out of my price range .

EASTWOOD/Airline is like a dream come true I was limited to

one or two guitars they have opened a world of new sound options to me and other Lefty's THANK YOU SO MUCH

I have let all my guitar playing buddies to check it out anyone

that has tried mine can not believe how little l payed .

I was looking for a resonator-type guitar, that can handle feedback, and obviouly, with a good sound. This guitar fullfils all those items!



Great sound, love the pickup blending! Acoutic sound also is very nice. Used to play live and its very easy to handle (no feedback problems!)



Finally, the look...well...just awesome vintage look! Love the body binding!

A Beauty in my hands !

I am in my first yr of lap steel, after 60-plus yrs of playing guitar. This is my second lap steel. I was disappointed

that it had no gig bag and the strings were poor quality and

too light. I changed the strings to Morrell E .014s, greatly

enhancing tone and playability. Intonation is adjustable, but

it is pretty much spot on. The guitar came tuned and seemed

to have been "tech'ed." Red finish is really nice, one small ding.

I would put the patch cord out the side vs on top. Biggest plus, it sounds great !

So I ordered my Airline Lap Steel on Monday; Tuesday it was clearing customs in Kentucky, Wednesday afternoon I received it in the desert in Nevada. ~Amazing~ for an 'International Order', and a very modest shipping charge. My lap steel arrived almost in tune (halfway between open D and E). They included a string-crank, 90degree 'courtesy' 1/4" cord, 2 Allen wrenches (one for the bridge saddles, and a bigger one that would turn a truss-rod if this instrument had one), and a generous garnish of various thicknesses and colors of flatpicks. The strings are a little mushy and slack in open D tuning, OK for open E....but there was no indication in the packaging of the strings' gauges. I'm going to order a GHS Open G set (They make them, but nobody seems to carry them), tune it to D, and have a good tension on this neck. The set-up intonation is pretty good; it's in the range where I can fix a semi-tone flat by just bearing down with the bar a little. The pickup's pretty chimey for a HB, and there's more range on the tone pot than I expected. I keep the volume dimed, and use a volume pedal (my steel A/Bs with my guitar into a pedalboard). It sounds fine with OD or distorto. I wish they'd have mentioned the string set these ship with, but I imagine most of us are going to put on strings for the tuning we have in mind anyway. This is a fine lap steel, for the price ~especially~, and all you may need is a slide-bar, strings appropriate to your tuning, and maybe fingerpicks. I can't believe how fast my order was processed and shipped, either.

I can't believe how good this thing sounds, especially with effects. I've had mine for over 3 years, and it still inspires me every time I pick it up. It's good to just noodle on unplugged as well.



I'd give it 5 stars but for a couple of things. The first one I received had very high action, even with the bridge saddles all the way down. It was cheerfully and quickly replaced; the second one is insanely playable, but arrived with a couple of body dings, and the pickup is visibly skewed. I couldn't be bothered with another return - hopefully the quality has gone up a notch.



Also note that ball-end strings of the right gauge are not too easy to come by. I'm using these:

A bit heavier than the originals, but they work just fine.



Now I need the matching baritone :)

What a powerful guitar with beautiful construction and an elegant tone. I couldn't be more ecstatic about this guitar. I haven't purchased a new guitar in quite sometime and I am so happy to have Eastwood guitars.

This baritone looks great, sounds great and stays in tune. I'm a "made in USA" snob and it's difficult for me to purchase an import. But I gotta say that I love this guitar so far. It inspires me to play songs differently. Not only in a lower key but tempo and dynamics as well. This is the most stable guitar that I've owned with a Bigsby on it also. I'm sure that's because of the added string tension. Do not be afraid of the Bigsby model. You'll need to roll the bass and mids off when using most amps to not fart out the speakers. Not a problem. I would recommend you buy this guitar.

I know these guitars have gained a following in the metal arena with the B tuning, but coming from a "long in the tooth" picker, this is an awesome guitar. The build is amazing and the tone, OMG the tone! through a Vox AC 15 is just a time machine. All the fingerings from a regular guitar work with the B E A D F# B tuning. but my favorite is to do a call and return with myself playing a bass line and then a guitar line on the higher strings. What a blast! It is all that you could want it to be and more. Get one!

Like a combination of a Strat and Les Paul with freaking P-90s. Light weight and beautiful. Really nice neck, wide and flat enough to be comfortable. The copper is my favorite color now and the white headstock is insanely cool. The tone/s, volume and sustain are wonderful. The perfect electric for me. If I could get the mother of pearl/abalone finish someday I would be happy to own a second one.

This was my first Eastwood Airline guitar and I really enjoy it. The look is good and fit and finish just right everywhere. The sound, played acoustic, is good and that's always a great sign on an electric guitar. It's a bit deeper than an LP but lighter because it's hollow. The single coil pickups sound great and the guitar plays like buttah. Other than some setup tweaks the only change I made was a bone nut (personal preference). If you want something different this is a great guitar and the price is right.

Stunningly beutiful guitar. Great setup right out of the box. Neck feels perfect!

This guitar has a classic p-90 sound that is further accentuated by it's beautiful hollow-body tone -it just sounds amazing without any amplification. The PUPs are pretty hot and have an awesome bright bark that I love. I felt like I became a better guitar player just picking this up because everything just sounds better. I use this with a Peavey Classic 30 and there are so many different tones -all the way from acoustic to classic rock and blues -very vintage and very responsive to pick attack. Great thing about this guitar is that it's light and well balanced and so easy to play -I really love the neck.



One thing that surprised me is how quiet the guitar is -I expected a lot more noise from single coils, especially since these are not reverse wound.



Build on this is phenomenal -super solid and professional -only part that seems to be potentially problematic is the pick guard, which is just held on by two screws, but no problems yet. The look of the guitar in person is even nicer than the pictures -the binding is so well done and everyone who has seen this have complimented the aesthetics of the guitar.



If you like P90s and hollow body sound don't hesitate on this one, there's very little it can't do well and the quality is what you would expect from something four times this price.

Fretboard feels wonderful. The pickups sound silky, quiet. I expected more noise from P90's. Finish is impeccable, a really beautiful guitar.

I gave it four stars because palm mutes are something you have to get used to because the trapeze tail is so close to the tune-o-matic.

This comes with 10's and they suit the guitar, intonation is good. I enjoy perfect intonation. I'll be putting on an Earvana nut. I like 11's with a wrapped third.
