Description
The Gold Airline 2P features a unique rubber binding that surrounds the tone chambered mahogany body. The vintage style of the pinstriped pickguard along and the chrome tone switch are tributes to the original 1959 models. With two ALNICO Hot-10 pickups, vintage tuners and the classic 25 ½ scale this guitar is guaranteed to turn heads.
“The Airline models are the flagship brand of Eastwood” said Mike Robinson “and we are really excited to celebrate 50 years of guitar history with this stunning limited edition Metallic Gold model”. If you have dreamed of having a true vintage guitar that nobody else has, with dreamlike tone and playability then an Eastwood guitar is your answer! With all the looks, tone and playability to appease even the most discriminating guitar player, these vintage reissue, and remake guitars bring back some of the coolest looking axes on the planet. Your fist reaction when you have an Eastwood guitar will be "how did I get a guitar that looks, feels, and plays like this for such a good price?" Each Eastwood guitar is made with the highest quality parts at a price that anyone can afford. If you wanted a vintage guitar that is now in a museum, or might set you back 3 to 4 thousand dollars, you now have an affordable choice! Your new Eastwood guitar will most likely sound better than the original as well, combining the looks of yesteryear with the technology of today!
