Manufacturer's Description from Eastwood

Custom Shop Series

The idea was simple - with so many cool vintage guitars to replicate, where does one begin? Well, let's get the customers to tell us! At any given moment in time the Custom Shop is "crowd sourcing" new models for future production. Some make it, while others don't. Some are home runs that earn the right to take a permanent spot in the Custom Shop lineup.

The Custom Shop Series captures the excitement of those quirky and cool guitars of the past. Many of the models have more knobs and switches than NASA, yet are gig-ready instruments that you can count on as your every day workhorse.

Fireball

We've always been inspired by the shape and look of most offset guitars, but this one built by Canadian Glenn McDougall of Saskatoon, SK., is especially pleasing to the eye. 
 
Unfortunately, earlier this year Glenn passed away at the age of 79. In his lifetime, he personally managed to build close to 10,000 guitars. The originals are very collectible and if you have one, you're a lucky individual. You can learn more about Glenn and his creations here.
 
Although we'll never come close to reproducing the level of passion that Glenn put into his creations, we have made this LIMITED-RUN tribute version of the Fireball which captures the elegant look of the original as a tip-of-the-hat to one of Canada's great builders. Quantities are VERY limited, so don't miss out!

About Manufacturer

Michael Robinson, the founder of Eastwood, started out buying and selling rare electric guitars. The difficulty and cost in obtaining these instruments, along with what he calls the all-too-often "sketchy quality that played like crap" led him to start a company building his own revivals from the edges of rock history. Eastwood has reinvented models and even worked with existing luthiers such as Jeff Senn to bring iconic and unique instruments to a wider player base. The result is a wide variety of instruments with a visual and sonic aesthetic all their own, coupled with an improved and smooth playability derived from modern build techniques. Each instrument is factory-milled and then hand-assembled and inspected by a seasoned pro in Chicago or Liverpool. Eastwood-playing artists include Warren Ellis, Jack White, Bill Nelson, Nick Valensi, and more! Since 2014, Eastwood also has a custom shop where they crowd-source new models for future production.
