Eastman fährt ja in einigen Dingen eine ganz eigene Linie. Signature-Gitarren, die nach den Wünschen bekannter Gitarristen gebaut werden, gibt es bei fast jeder Marke. Das hat Eastman mit den John Pisano und den Frank Vignola-Modellen auch. Dass aber bekannte Gitarrenbauer "'Signature"-Modelle für Eastman entwerfen ist schon etwas ganz besonderes. Wenn Weltklasse-Gitarrenbauer wie Claudia+Claudio Pagelli aus der Schweiz oder Otto d'Ambrosio aus New York Eastman für fähig empfinden ihre Modelle zu bauen, so sagt das sehr viel über die hohe Qualität aus, die bei Eastman produziert wird.

Hier hat nun Otto d'Ambrosio wiedermal ein absolutes Sahnestückchen entworfen. Wieder sehr eigenwillig - wie schon bei der El Rey Serie - und trotzdem ganz nah an unserem Empfinden, wie "eine schöne Gitarre aussehen soll".

INTRODUCING

Genius Otto D’Ambrosio design

As a thinline guitar capable of many styles, from Indie Rock to Fusion Jazz, this might be the go to guitar for any player.

Fitted with Lollar Custom Wound Imperials, Romeo also features a solid carved spruce top along with a laminated semi-hollow mahogany body.

The result is nothing but spectacular.Single Coil / Seductive Range

Romeo-SC is the first Eastman guitar to include a lipstick style pickup,  via  Seymour Duncan's Vintage Stack in the neck - in addition to a  Seymour Duncan ’59 pickup in the bridge. This allows for an incredibly versatile range of tones that seduces the imagination from all genres. It’s also the first guitar in the lineup to feature a beautiful Red Burst finish, found exclusively on Romeo.

Lightweight & Ergonomic / A Love Story

Staying true to the vision of a lightweight and ergonomically constructed instrument, Romeo-SC features a solid spruce top and mahogany laminate back & sides. Whether as a sideman or the main attraction, this guitar will allow for hours of playing without a trace of fatigue.

More Love / Nothing Tragic

Romeo-SC expands the tonal palette of  master luthier Otto D’Ambrosio’s highly acclaimed Romeo thinline. The singular vision of blending Nashville soul with Detroit grit into one versatile sound has led to a unique twist for Romeo that captures the ears, hands, and hearts of many playing styles

Duesenberg Les Trem II
Genius addition gives the Romeo SC more variability for more styles
