I know they're considered cool, but I just don't like 'em

New Guitar Day? Obsessed with tone? 10 on the volume dial not enough? Celestion vs. Electrovoice? Cum in, feel the noize.

I can't do the airline line of Eastwood products. Hideous. I'll second that sentiment.

Thumbs down. Trying too hard to be cool.
People want something for nothing, they want it right now. Either they can't tell quality or don't care but feel it is important that everyone agrees with them.

I really like odd shaped guitars, but these are ugly.

I had a National back in the late 70s that I got for $50. It was useless.

After checking out that link, I got spam on my FB from the Eastwood Guitars page; "We noticed you were looking"... and some pictures of their guitars. Of course, I had to tell them it was because I couldn't believe how abominably dog-shite feckin' ugly they are.
