Shawn Pavey on Jan 26, 2017 "I LOVE this guitar. It just feels right. The build quality is unsurpassed. By playing with tone, volume, and pickup selector, this guitar has a myriad of voices and can go from a Les Paul snarl to a Telecaster twang instantly. The fretboard is fast, the balance is perfect. Really, y'all swung for the fences on this one and hit it out of the park!"
Bill Bosch on Sep 08, 2016 "Eastwood and JD Backlund really hit it lout of the park this time! Straight out of a 1950's sci fi comic. I waited six months for this, and when it came neatly packaged in bubble wrap in the hard shell case, I was cautious upon opening it. I took pictures somewhat expecting it to come alive. It plays better than I expected and the pickup combo is great. Fit and finish is close to Custom shop quality and the cool factor is waaay off the scale."

I never get tired of looking at it as it's one of the most beautiful guitars in my collection. It's sound is just as good and I can't wait for the 400 and the Flat Marz to be available. It was playable right out of the box and it's number one right now when I sit down to mess around."
