Location: Somewhere in cyberspace | I haven't played the Eastwood GP, but two things... the headstock looks UGGGGGGLY and totally out of place, it's like reissuing a '59 Les Paul with a Teisco headstock. Second, the heel is completely wrong, and the seamless heel is one of the GP's best features. Other than that, I'm sure it's a great axe for the money, like most Eastwoods. Just don't buy it thinking it's the same as the original GP.
Of course, it's easy for me to be smug about it, I've had my GP since '86, when nobody wanted one. But I really do wish Eastwood had worked with Ovation on a proper GP reissue. Seriously, why doesn't Ovation do it and get it right? They can reissue the GP to specs, call it a Hamer GP if they have to, but please just get it right! |
Can anyone tell me a bit about the Ovation Tribute?
