Backlund Model 200

Story

Many of you are familiar with John Backlund’s fantastic guitar designs, but very few have ever had the opportunity to own one – until now. Once again, John has partnered with Eastwood Guitars to bring these fantastic designs to life.

The Model 200 carries on the tradition of Backlund’s retro-futuristic designs, but does so in a familiar tele-style flair. Its satin-finished all-maple neck is incredibly comfortable and fast, and the ergonomically designed body contours make this guitar a dream to play.

The 200 was discontinued from production a few years back, but we’ve decided to do some small-batch productions in the most sought-after Deep Blue Finish. If you missed out the first time, don’t sleep on it now!
