The ā€™59 Custom guitars deliver many new features to the Airline brand. These guitars feature a unique rubber binding which surrounds the entire body, and replicates the aesthetics of the original Airline Res-O-Glas guitars. Additional cosmetic details include a striped pickguard, aluminum tone switch plate and available NOS Valco knobs. Both the ā€™59 Custom 2P and the ā€™59 Custom 3P guitars are fitted with the high output Airline Vintage Voiced Single Coil pickups. These models ship in the new Vintage Style Deluxe form-fit Airline hardshell case with steel plate logo.

ā€œIt has been five years since I asked our engineering team for that rubber binding,ā€ stated Mike Robinson, President of Eastwood Guitars, ā€œand I can say it was definitely worth the wait. Over the past six years, our Airline series has built a great reputation for playability and tone, but now we are setting a new standard in guitar aesthetics with the new ā€™59 Custom Series.ā€

The Airline ā€™59 Custom 2P is available in red and the Airline ā€™59 Custom 3P comes equipped with a Bigsby tremolo and is available in black or seafoam green. Both new models are in stock now and are shipping worldwide.
