In my ongoing search for a guitar that works well with my shoulder and that I like in general I saw this and had to have it.
It’s an Airline Bighorn by Eastwood guitars.
Its quite possibly one of the cheapest made guitars I’ve come across or owned, it’s got a few finish flaws and other “cosmetic “ issues and I don’t think I could recommend one to most……….but f**k me if I don’t love how it plays and sounds!
It is definitely a marmite guitar, most of you will hate it and I’m ok with that.
The neck joins the body at the 14th fret, and there’s only 19 in total. It’s full scale 25.5” with a full neck, decent string spacing and lots of room on the board either side of the two E strings, makes it very easy to play, low vintage frets that are nicely finished and level. The fret markers finish at the 12th too so that takes some getting used to.

I’m glad you reminded me that I need another one of these.

Is there something going on with the TRC top edge, or is it just a photo artefact?
