JR Elite
*** Shipping January 31, 2006   ***
January 6, 2006 - EASTWOOD Guitars announces their new JR Elite Guitar. After six months of guarded R+D, the new JR Elite will be ready to ship in limited quantities on January 31, 2006.

"For years, we have been simply astonished that people are paying
thousands of dollars for re-issues of the Mosrite guitar made famous by Johnny Ramone. We decided it was time for Eastwood to step up and offer their own tribute model, but at the price our customers should expect to pay". All the changes that Johnny made to his original Mosrite have been replicated in detail here:

- Stop Tail with adjustable roller bridge
- Heavy duty Grover tuners
- Mini Humbucker neck pickup
- Hi-Output Eastwood F1 Fixed Single Coil Bridge pickup
- Knurled Volume knob, LP tone knob
- Alder Body
- Hi-Gloss Maple Neck with Rosewood fretboard, Metal Nut
- available in White, Blue and Gold
WEB ONLY Press Release
Johnny never used the neck pickup. In fact he had the wiring changed so that only the bridge pickup worked. That is the only difference we've made - the mini Humbucker in the neck offers some fantastic tone options - and the 3-way switch activates both pickups making this an extremely versatile guitar, even better than the original!
