Anyone who saw Wire in the 70's or 80's or who has seen the "On The Box" DVD will be familiar with the White Ovation "Breadwinner" Guitar I used to play. Truth was it looked fantastic but didn't sound that great. But still it did LOOK great!
Now Eastwood, who make the Airline guitar I've used pretty extensively both live & in the studio have created a hommage in the shape of the Eastwood "Breadwinner". I got the chance to play one Githead's recent webcast from Orchard studios in Brampton, Ontario, (dubbed "Brampton Comes Alive" by The Two Koreas). I think it sounds somewhat better than the original but I was hardly able to give it exhaustive road tests!
There is talk of making a very limited run of pink (as in "pink flag" pink) ones. I have no idea if Wire fans (especially ones that don't play the instrument) would be interested in that.....
