Eastwood .... how ugly can we make a guitar and still get people to buy it?

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

Eastwood is blowing out Rivolta Factory Samples 50% off.

Not many to pick from but now is the time to snag one if you want it.

I've been happy with my Rivolta, it's a cool guitar, but I got it used and it has a great case. It seems new Rivoltas don't come with hard cases anymore, and the "premium gig bag" is a hundred bucks extra. That's pretty disappointing. And they're so weirdly shaped I don't know where you'd find a hard case to fit one.

ANY decent guitar should come with a hard shell case and they used to .... but now it's a way to add money to the sale.
just fricking price it with the case already!

Agreed. It doesn't make sense to have it as an add on. Stupid.

I don't think fender does that do they? Doesn't all their American made stuff come in a case?
