Sound
:

Sound is great, little noisy, but good.I play mostly vintage stuff: country, rock,rockabilly .Works good for these. Full bright sounds to mellow on lower tone settings.I use a 70's Kustom 100 Amp with built in tremolo and reverb.

Nut was a little high but an easy fix. Finish is as good as I've seen:very attractive,bright red and glossey. Cream colored, fully bound body,neck,headstock,and F holes.Everything works correct.
Reliability/Durability
:

Weight is a little on the light side but seems to be built well.Finish looks deep and well applied.Strap buttons are nice and solid. I would gig with it with out a backup. I usually take only one guitar and use it on all my music,works for me.

Overall Rating

I've been playing for 35 years, I'll play them a while and then trade for something else. Now I also have a 60's strat reissue,Olympia acoustic,70's Ventura Les Paul copy.This Eastwood Madsion is over all a very nice guitar.
