Comments | Here’s a near-mint Eastwood Airline Tuxedo Sunburst from 2011. Eastwood produces guitars based on a variety of 50’s and 60’s models that are really not availalbe otherwise.
The Airline Tuxedo is based on the Kay Barney Kessel guitar from the mid 1950’s. It’s really quite a good design, and this example is in exceptional condition. |
