We were talking about them in January... Here!
But for $700 I would try to get a Real One!



Eastwood clones alot of obscure guitars.

They also clone the Ultra GP for alot less than $3100!

Neither. I don't think the shape of the body is protected intellectual property. The headstock is, but they are not infringing on that.

I'm not sure about the Breadwinner but the GP is a slightly different shape to the original
