My Rare Guitars Blog

A couple of days ago I was ranting about taking my son on a trip to Europe. Good ‘ol Proud Father stuff. Twice in the same week? Yesterday morning on NBC’s TODAY Show R.E.M. did a LIVE broadcast from the streets of New York City. They played their new hit single, Supernatural Superserious - and ripping into the opening guitar riff was long time R.E.M. sideman Scott McCaughey on his EASTWOOD Sidejack! Did I feel like a proud father? You bet! “> I would have never guessed five years ago when we developed the SIDEJACK that this day would arrive. I’m quite proud indeed. In fact, rumour has it that you’ll get a chance to see it again tonight on the COLBERT REPORT. R.E.M. with an EASTWOOD Guitar on the Colbert Report? Can’t get much better than that… Very Cool. Here is a picture of Pete Buck with Robyn Hitchcock, earlier this year on the west coast - Peter with his AIRLINE 2P DLX and Robyn with his AIRLINE TWIN TONE. Proud father indeed!
