Description
The Eastman Romeo California is a sleek, lightweight thinline semi-hollow electric guitar designed by master luthier Otto D’Ambrosio. It captures the effortless cool of West Coast rock with its distinctive offset body shape, modernized F-holes, and supremely playable feel. It features a laminate flame maple top finished in a stunning gloss Goldburst that beautifully highlights the wood’s figure, paired with mahogany laminate back and sides for a light, resonant, and balanced tone. The one-piece maple neck wears a comfortable Traditional Even "C" profile and is topped with an ebony fingerboard for smooth playability across all 22 frets.
Premium appointments include Göldo back-locking tuners, a Gotoh Tune-o-Matic bridge and tailpiece, Jescar frets, and a real bone nut. It comes loaded with Bare Knuckle Old Guard humbuckers, delivering vintage-inspired PAF tones with exceptional clarity, warmth, and dynamics. Independent volume and tone controls plus a 3-way toggle provide complete tonal flexibility, making the Romeo California equally at home in jazz, blues, indie, or classic rock settings. Handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, this guitar ships in a hardshell case and represents extraordinary value in the boutique thinline category.
