Have any of you played/owned one of the Eastwood Airline copies - maybe one of the map style guitars? I've always been interested in the Nationals and Airlines, but never enough to lay down the $2-6k to get an original res-o-glas. These seem to be Eastwood's higher-end guitars. Any reviews from experience with one?

.. Mike Campbell is playing one through the song.

The new ones are a slightly different shape, no cutaway on the lower part of the body ,, I think the old one looks cool.
There's an eastwood video of a surf medley played on a modern surf green one by joey leone .. it gets better towards the end when they do secret agent man. lol

Juan,
Tom and Mike are 'well known' for collecting 'vintage guitars and amps' and putting them in their own "VAULT."
