Artist Quotes:

"My Eastwoods are so beautiful I had to go back to my tailor and have my suits re-vamped, if only suits could sound as good as these guitars" _Chris Difford - Squeeze
"I've been touring for the last year with the AIRLINE and the ICHIBAN. Of all the guitars I have, these are the ones that I'm always asked about. I'm a big fan of Mike's commitment to unusual & great sounding guitars, and he makes them for lefty's!" _Dean Tidey, FEEDER
"I've always been into 1960's kooky & unusual guitars - they look good but they SUCK. My Eastwood AIRLINE is kooky, but you can actually play it! What a concept!" _Earl Slick, DAVID BOWIE
"As a 12 year old, I was blown away by the exotic designs of Wandré, Hopf, and Teisco. They embodied the electrical essence of rock n' roll. Magically, my Eastwood Guitars remind me of just how I felt outside a music shop back in the early '60's, and confirm just why I fell in love with electric guitars in the first place." _Bill Nelson
"So many guitars these days are ludicrously expensive - you'll find Eastwood's are extremely well made, professional quality gear at a very affordable price. I own an Ichiban, Tuxedo and EEB-1 BASS. They offer us lefties an amazing selection - I'm sure there will be a few more in my future!” _Elliot Easton - The CARS
"My Eastwood EUB-1 Fretless Bass has timeless qualities about it, both in design and sound. Unique qualities that inspire.” _Mick Karn
"I like the bizarre and wonderful. The Eastwood series never fails to please - people can't work out what it is! Eastwood is destined to become a household name!" _Boz Boorer, MORRISSEY
"My TUXEDO is simply one cool piece of wire and wood. It’s an inspiration to my song writing and truly a work of art. Bravo!"
_Stan Ridgway
"My Red Airline DLX showed up yesterday, I have not put it down since. I haven't slept, all I am doing is playing this guitar. The craftsmanship is exceptional and I can no longer imagine playing any other guitar." _Rich Kolodzie
"I've played many live shows with the Eastwood Delta 6 - in England and America - everybody asks me about it. People really love the sound. The guitar looks so unusual, it always gets compliments. Success!" _David Pajo
"When Mike told me he was going to start manufacturing the Eastwood line of "bizarre" guitar reissues, I knew we were all in for a treat, and as I expected, they don't disappoint!" _Matthew Sweet
"Guitars from the 60’s really give the sense that we were inventing something new - not yet shackled by electric guitar conventions. Take that vision and put it with something made and finished extremely well, and you have an Eastwood Guitar - a guitar for non conformists." _Andy Gill, Gang of Four
