The Airline RS-II is a tribute to the Roy Smeck model of the late 50’s. The unique semi-hollow design without F-Holes combine with the VALCO Argyle single coil pickups to produce a unique tone reminiscent from many early electric guitars from the 50’s and 60’s. Despite its semi-hollow design, the RS-II is capable of producing clean or distorted tones with minimal feedback.

Over a decade ago, the Airline RS-II was a regular production model under the Eastwood umbrella. It went out of production sometime in the early 2010s, but since then we've had countless requests for it to come back.


We figured we'd bring it back in style, offering it in both Natural and Redburst finishes. Not only that, but we're also offering a three pickup version in Tobacco Burst and Metallic Black!
