Those are interesting, but more importantly - did you get to peak at the E20 TC Madigascar models? Your thoughts would be most welcomed.

Hey Tom,

Helene and I were in Hawaii, but we did have some people at the show. Although the convention center is not ideal for evaluating tone, they were impressed by the guitars. Looking forward to evaluating them here.

So - I'll add my two cents.  I like the look of the Juliet, much more than the Romeo.  I think the raised centerpiece is a cool differentiator that isn't used often.  Look forward to trying one out.  What do other folks think?

I'm with Tim -- that's one handsome-looking electric, and one I'd definitely consider if I was in the market for a new electric.

Good article with Otto and Pepijn from Eastman.

That headstock -- both the silhouette shape and the 3D sculpting where it joins the neck -- is an absolutely brilliant synthesis of function, form, and aesthetics. Given all the crappy riffs on the classic Fender-Bigsby headstock, it's great to see a 6-in-line shape that both fits in the tradition and stands out on its own. I really like how Eastman is making its own way with models like these. IMO, this design is superior to what Duesenberg and Fano/Novo/Whatever are producing, completely independent of pricing.
