Eastwood Airline Roy Smeck RS-I Guitar Eastwood Airline Roy Smeck RS-II Guitar

Here is the latest AIRLINE from Eastwood Guitars. The Roy Smeck tribute is available in two configurations, the RS-I and the RS-II, both reminiscent of the late 1950's Roy Smeck model. The unique hollow-body design without F-Holes combine with the Airline ARGYLE Single coil pickups to produce a unique tone reminiscent from many early electric guitars from the 50's and 60's. The RS-II is capable of producing clean or distorted tones without feedback.. Also unique to the RS guitars is their 26" scale length and the new AIRLINE Vintage Argyle Diamond pickups. These single coil pickups produce a wonderful tone reminiscent of the old DeArmond Gold Foils.

RS-I & RS-II
Both models have flamed maple tops, maple back and sides. They have access panels on the rear of the guitar. The RS-I model is available in REDBURST. It has a volume and tone control for each pickup with a 3-way pickup selector switch on the base of the body. The RS-II is available in natural flamed maple with a Black pickguard. It has a volume and tone control for each pickup with a 3-way pickup selector switch on the lower bout.
