  1. LOVE the look of the Stormbird!

  2. this one actually looks good.

  3. I’ve tried out the Eastwood Stormbird and now I’m thinking about growing my hair and digging out my leather pants… very fun and it feels like it is a 36″ scale… nice action on the wide but thin neck… I’ve also been using their new 34″ Airline Map with D’addario Chrome flats on I’m loving it, amazing tone and feel.

  4. I’ve been waiting years for Eastwood to make this bass.

  5. How do you buy it that way.

  6. I’ve always want a “non-reverse” T-Bird! Cool color….I understand Gibson is coming out with one too, except theirs is going to go for about $1,200.00!
