Eastwood Ichiban

Looks quite cool I think :)

Jag-style tremolo, dodgy offset? body, made of mahogany. I'd be interested in seeing what it sounds like, could always make a new pick guard and get some sing coils in there though.

Don't dig the buckers nor the Schecter-esque headstock... otherwise I kinda dig it.

The Ichiban is a great sounding guitar . If you can though try out one of the older ones with the 3 mini humbuckers . I think those are better . However the 2 humbucker above is very adequate . They didn't call it an Ichiban though but they're pretty much the same except for the trem .

Yep . Another guitar that was considered a toy back in the day now going for a shit load of money it they're in decent shape . I had a friend in high school that had one just like that one that was living in the bottom of his closet . Dented and dinged to shit , a bad pot and had 4 acoustic strings on it . Still sounded pretty cool . Those and the Guyatones fuckin rock , Man.
