Eastwood guitars, who make reissues of wacky guitars, have adopted a crowd funding approach to getting custom models built.

This way they know how much demand they have for something before building, leaving them in a good position of having a sold out production run with no leftovers eating up space and profits. It seems most of their projects aren't particularly popular, but then some have gone far beyond expectations. I would
love to see some of the rarer, less marketable G&L models (SC-1, G-200 etc) offered like this. What think you?
