Sound Pure's Take
When we initially heard about the Juliet line, we were on the edge of our seats. Eastman's first in-line-six headstock? Offset solid body? Bare Knuckle Old Guards? We were over the moon! Now that we've landed, we can confidently say we weren't dissappointed. Each Juliet has its own distinct character, and despite feeling incredibly comfortable and familiar, it's unlike anything we've laid hands on! We've fallen for the Juliet, and you're going to as well.
From Eastman Guitars
A bold, new solid body design.
A trio of uniquely Eastman solid body guitars, Juliet is an evolution of Romeo’s ergonomic carves and graceful curves, sculpted for maximum comfort and playability. Striking features include an offset body with raised center bar and laid-in pickguard, making Juliet stand out in any player’s rig, on any player’s stage.
Juliet features a lightweight Okume body and neck, with the waist and lower arm contours providing maximum playing comfort while sitting or standing. Each model comes with its own custom designed and uniquely flat inlaid pickguard contributing to an original look while providing both protection and character. The raised center bar adds soul and sustain to a brand new voice.
Whether you’re using the Schaller three-way Megaswitch to toggle between the Bare Knuckle Old Guard partially wax potted Humbuckers or the Old Guard low wound P90’s, there is no denying that Juliet is a rock n’ roll machine. A three-knob configuration provides two volumes and one tone for the bridge pickup, just like Juliet’s companion Romeo LA. The Antique Black Varnish model comes with a USA Bigsby B5 for players looking for a little extra bend.
Juliet is the first Eastman to feature an in-line-six design, complete with Gotoh tuners. The headstock’s color matched stepdown is an Otto D’ Ambrosio signature, perfectly complementing and highlighting the meticulous attention to detail seen in its design and build.
