Great creation, Jeff, congrats!
Here's a color suggestion. Supposed to sparkle, a bit.

Ariel,
Oh My!
Now THAT'S a color suggestion!
Awesome.
Cheers,
Jeff

Frank,
That's so cool!
Thanks so much for the support.
My band mate Kiwamu and I have been digging the prototype. Sadly it goes back to Eastwood when the campaign ends this week so I'll be waiting with everyone else for mine. Keeps it fair and fun though, right?
What color did or will you pick?
I think (hope) they will hit the goal to build one of the greens.
A heartfelt thank you once again.
5 days left!
It's been a busy campaign, creating video demos, ads, but man, what an interesting trip.
Cheers,
Jeff
At the moment I'm partial to the Red, but that could change when the time comes and when final choices are offered.

Hi Jeff!
I'm in! I really don't need another electric, but I couldn't resist! I'm looking forward to it! Still not sure about the color. I like the one in teisco red. Black is also cool, but I have already a black Jazzmaster. The sparkle blue one looks hot although it's not a option (yet).. Since I don't have a green guitar, why not surf or cadillac green? Too many options! (First world problem)
Cheers

The green one is gorgeous enough; if they built it in Ariel Blue I'd be in real trouble.
Edit to add: 3.6666666666666666666666666666667 pledgers needed.
Good luck!

Timo,
Awesome!
Thanks for supporting this project. There will be a few of us waiting (patiently?) for the September delivery.
Frank,
The Red is cool but so is black. I'm having a hard time deciding.
Wes,
Yes, only a few more orders needed for the Sea Foam Green to be available.
Maybe we'll hit it today.....?

Gosh, you all are blowing us away!
Truly, It's one thing to share this event with you all here but to have some of you back this project and support us like this is mind blowing.
I keep saying wow but...Wow!
Woody - Hopefully there will be next run someday. If so, I'll put a word in for the Fiesta.
caddady - Amazing and thank you!
Eastwood will contact pledges after the campaign is over to ask about color choice.
I designed the Model One so that it fits in any regular, square Tele or Strat case. Unlike other offsets it's not fussy about that by design intent. The orders will come with a gig bag.
Those pop up chat things are a pain in the ass, yes!
Cheers,
Jeff

I just checked and it looks like the Cadman's deposit put us over the 400% level into 3rd color territory
Congrats Jeff and Eastwood!

Likewise! Now at least I have some time to decide on a color. Someone else early on at the site had suggested a metalflake blue 'bout the time I suggested Foam Green. Maybe catastrophic success will occur & I'll REALLY have a tough decision. Lord have mercy, make that blue that Ariel suggested.
So Jeff, in case I get down to Nashville, you probably know the correct instrument to use to autograph one of these puppies.

The only downer for me is that it looks like I'll be getting my Model One about 3 weeks AFTER Jeff and the Crazy Aces invade So Cal - I was hoping to get mine personalized too.

Bummer. I don't have an excuse (yet), but maybe I'll shoot the fall match in Lexington and then, ya know, cut over to I-65 just for grins or something. Never actually been to Nashville but I understand they have some little breweries that hire really cool bands. A road trip before the white stuff shows up.
Edit: Jeebers, there's another one just hit after me. Holy Smokes Bullwinkle!

Wes,
Thank you for your support! You are always welcome if you want to come down for a visit. We'll raid the guitar closets and give your Model One a once over.
You guys don't want my signature mucking these things up!
I'm just another guy building and designing guitars in his home workshop.
Don't ruin those finishes!
At this point, for this project, I do not think the Blue will be a possibility. Who knows though, a lot of this is up to Eastwood, the sales numbers and interest.
Sparkle finishes would be RAD though!
A few more SG101'ers and friends from the Surf Community have placed orders in the last few days.
I'm actually an emotional enough guy to where this just about moves me to tears.
You all are the best!
Cheers,
Jeff

Stickers = cool!
My signature = not cool
Ha Ha!
Didn't someone say they were going to put a Miami Dolphins sticker on a Sea Foam Green example?
Now that would look cool and hell, I'm originally from Buffalo so I should hate that, LOL.
Cheers,
Jeff

You might be surprised, this once, how irrelevant your opinion is on the matter.
